Annoyed by the high cost of a tune-up, 30 years ago I took a class on automotive maintenance. Armed with a spark plug wrench, timing light and screwdriver, I thereafter tuned up — far more often than necessary — my 1978 Toyota Corolla. Back then I had the right tools and the knowledge to do what needed to be done. Today I have neither. Radiologists are in a different ocean, but the same boat.

That’s a lot of imaging, and a big challenge for a department whose motto is “every procedure starts with low dose.”
