A) O, poor, poor Bill 💜 B) I love that Radiology's ultimate, extreme punishment, is actually a mildly chill time out for two of the most burnt out doctors ... and gym time for Ortho lol Ahhhh ... Ortho ...
To this day, I refuse to use the word "infiltrate" because my attending hated it. I might use "infiltrative consolidation" which suits our aim of obfuscation better, anyway. This was Strong Work, Dr. G!
Man, I got to shadow an ortho bro for awhile and they’re just the chillest. I can just imagine the radiologists getting fed up with them. That’s why the ortho I shadowed had rad techs in office. He also had the magic ability to get insurance to go straight for MRI and skip the CT scan.
This is really just half a step removed from “it interprets the x-ray correctly, or else it gets the light again.” We see the dark side of the radiologist, in more than one way….
As a radiology tech student I love how you correctly portray the darkness. I feel like a mole when I leave at the end of the day and step into the dun. Arrgh! The light…,
As an xray/CT tech, it makes me jealous hearing a Radiologist actually correcting orders. Half of what we as techs do is ask ER doctors if they are actually expecting us to catch a chest PE, chest aorta, runoff, and CTA head/neck in the same scan. And then 3 hours later telling them a head w/o to "ruleout" an intracranial hemorrhage on the same patient isn't truly a head w/o.
@@thatismostillogical 99% of the time we do, but sometimes they like to surprise us. A few weeks ago we got a CTA neck (no head) for swelling s/p carotid surgery and then 2 hours later they wanted to make sure there was no ICH. Our rad was unhappy with us because we didn't check first (I did)
X-ray Tech here and yes, I like turning the lights down in our exam rooms. There’s even an ER nurse who automatically turns the lights out in his patients room when we roll in. When I worked midnights, one of the first things I did was shut lights off. And, sorry Ortho Bros, but the “stat” thing is true. Between the Ortho and Podiatry folks, it’s the residents that cried stat!
And EVERYTHING EVER ORDERED IS STAT!!!! AND IT TAKES PRECEDENCE!!! Over real emergencies! A hand over a cxr. Yes I have gotten into it with ortho over this multiple times.

Also, if you are a referring to radiology, dear lord please ask a clinical question that the modality you are referring can actually answer. Xrays can't do much to help you with tendon tears folks.

The double safety goggles made me laugh. I'm a laser research scientist, not anywhere near medicine, but I've doubled up on tinted lenses before. Even tripled up one time. My prescription transition lenses were still dark under my laser safety goggles under my tinted faceplate mask.
@@zazenwind google "ET tube" and imagine trying to talk with one going down your throat. Propofol is a sedative. So the patient was (partially) sedated and had a tube going down their throat, yet somehow found a way to talk to the doctor about their shortness of breath??
ICU nurse from Germany here „Sedation-free“ intensive care (Patients can communicate things like pain or dyspnoe via tablet/writing) is what we do now.
As a radiographer, or "rad tech" as the americans call it, this is pretty accurate. Though I'm definitely checking the next time I see SoB on a request from ITU to see if the patient is being mechanically ventilated from now on.
@@xisotopex yep lol. love it they clearly copied the order for exploratory x-rays to localise where the pain is coming from even though they know Exactly where the injury is. E.g. re-ordering elbow/forearm/wrist/hand when it's just a follow up for a thumb fracture 🙃
As an ER tech that was responsible for taking patients to CT… I felt bad some times. I’d bring 1 pt over, come back to my bay, and snag another pt. This repeated, one day, 10x within 3 hours. CT staff was fantastic though lol.
Every time emergency gets blasted for his use of radiology I catch myself thinking “oh yeah that makes sense” or “oh bugger I do that too”. But don’t tell the radiologists in my hospital I said so…. ;)
0:51 one of our radiologists insisted that “infiltrates” can only be determined by pathologists with lung tissue samples. He was adamant that we should never describe infiltrates on imaging. Once a quarter, we would have combined radiology-pathology conferences and it was hilarious to watch him flinch every time the pathologist would say “infiltrates” because he was so used to calling it out. But the pathologist was absolutely the the guy who could honestly use that word!
This is so clever! I didn't catch on to the "The Light" punishment at first, then I remembered one time when I was in the hospital as a patient, and my nurse called down to the lab.The guy who answered the phone sounded like he'd been down there in the darkness for a millenia. He could barely speak well on the phone, and really didn't sound like he wanted to come up to the third floor in the light of day to help the nurse with something (I don't remember what). Then I realized why 'the light' and the bright 'closet box' were punishments. I'm the exact same way! I can't stand 'the light'. My place is as dark as I can make it, with all the blinds shut and very soft amber lighting. When my daughter and her boyfriend were living with me, they would turn on all the bright lights that were pre-installed in the ceiling, sometimes just as a "punishment" if I had irritated them. I don't get why everyone nowadays wants their lights as bright as day all the time. When I was young, everyone had soft, cozy lighting in their homes, and most didn't even have any pre-installed lighting.
I can't stand overly bright lights, and prefer 1 lamp to an overhead 'room' light. Bright lights (except actual day light) can also give me headaches. But for Radiology, he 'needs' the dim light to properly interpret x-rays, CTs, and MRIs on his bank of computers screens - think about it like soldiers preserving their night vision by avoiding bright lights. Readjusting to the natural, gloomy, ambient lighting that is the Radioligists' 'natural habitat' would be quite a strain - hence the multiple sunglasses 😁
@Ms Shell M Yes, I get that. But it was funny that apparently, he'd been down there alone for so long that he couldn't speak to the charge nurse/manager properly on the phone. It was like pulling teeth to get anything out of him. After she hung up, she was like, "Learn how to speak properly on the phone, will ya."
As a radiologist, this is the most unrealistic situation Dr. G has ever acted, because implies that we have social skills to talk like that. Radiologists only communicated through phone (the damn phone that never stops ringing...)
I agree 🤣🤣🤣 rad here. Everytime I have to speak to an actual person I get stressed out. Phone and voice recognition are my favorite people in this world. 😄
I can confirm Bill’s face is true when you face up a fellow doctor asking about the info they wrote down in the exams order. Our CT’s department boss once made a neurosurgeon resident go back (to the shadows), since he will not get a single approvement for studies during a week (“sent a fellow resident if you really need them, maybe you or they will write the orders properly next time”).
I was imagining some devilish contraption made of LED's and scavenged flashlights capable of blinding people in there or something. What it actually was is way funnier.
Confession: I was expecting The Box to be the backyard. As in, actually outside with the sun. I had forgotten Radiology lives in the basement by choice.
I always love the videos because i can follow along by context even when i don't know the med references! They always make me curious, though. Now I'm wishing you had an explainer page like xkcd does! Someone needs to start that. Who's knowledgeable. So not me. 😆
This is a fantastic idea. I feel like a fan wiki about the whole Glaucomfleckenverse would be the way to go, so that everyone can contribute to a page for each sketch giving detailed explanation/breakdown of it. Then we could have pages on each character, where newcomers to the glauc flock could get up to speed on traits and relationships and ongoing references. I bet anyone can start a fan wiki ... Hmmm ...
kinda reminds me of doctors that will note they looked into your ears and document it, except there is no otoscope to be seen… not sure, but sometimes EMR templates aren’t the best. but, 15 minutes isn’t a long time to examine and chart while providing good care, sometimes. i think i understand why this happens.
I work in the dark room, and love it ngl. Every time I leave my eyes have to readjust. Every once in a while the sanitation people come in and flick the lights on and my gut reaction is to hiss.

Bean buddies! Think of the bean buddies! The only time nephrology didn't go ham on stupidity was helping out Ortho. It would be like kicking a Goldendoodle puppy.
Remind me of the very bright light that eye doctors LOVE to use with a magnifier to look at my retinas after my eyes are dilated. One eye doctor called it legal torture.
We love the dark as we don't like stray light photons interfering and masking our monitors' true contrast ratio! Even when not working I still prefer the dark, somehow.
As an ortho resident, not making a STAT radiologic order is like not having STAT lab for internals..ortho stuffs are all the same in every country or nation haaaa..
As a radtech I must say this is the most proactive and talkative radiologist I have ever seen. And tbh though, I much prefer a radiologist who is actively reviewing the relevance and justification for an exam. In my country they typically have accepted doing the exam as is takes less effort than correcting/arguing. As a trial I have had a day where I deleted half of the clinical orders I thought were pointless bull****. And no one noticed. Patients discharged and I only got 1 phonecall about one of the deleted orders.
The best shifts are the ones that are covered by a radiologist who hasn't lost the will to fight! My hospital has borrowed some great ones from other hospitals due to staffing issues, and they were sociable and talkative to boot :)
Please disregard the stethoscope worn by radiology! I was recording this at midnight and was very tired and got confused!
He wears it whenever Ortho and ER are around, to check for signs of intelligent life.
Nah, he use the stethoscope to listen for "abnormal" noise in the CT scan bearings.

As a radiologist, when ER said he was there for making the CT scanner overheat I died 😂. So on point.
Kudos on the stoic exercise for the bit!
Remind me of the very bright light that eye doctors LOVE to use with a magnifier to look at my retinas after my eyes are dilated. One eye doctor called it legal torture.

laucomflecken, every time I see a new video come up on youtube, makes my day! would love more on annoying nurses and admin staff
As an x ray tech I can confirm all these scenarios are correct.
radiology creating a whole purgatory 😭😭😭😭
Love the "thanks bro!"
I would be so funny if Radiology's punishment room just became the new breakroom for the rest of the staff
I'd have that CT overheating until it melts down to get a sweet 4 hours of down time.
Make that donut of truth scream!
@@lilbatz THANK YOU for introducing me to the nickname "donut of truth"!
nice push-up form. Unrealistic though. A true ortho bro would use Baxter bags and fluid tubing to make a pulley weight system.
Or you get the light. I'm dead 😆
This is one of my favourite sketches of the year!
Love our dark adapted folks ☺️
My favourite doc!
Solid form on those pushups orthobro
All those skits are flawless
hahaha "followed by 7 hours of watching me dictate"... sounds about right
We love the dark as we don't like stray light photons interfering and masking our monitors' true contrast ratio! Even when not working I still prefer the dark, somehow.
Every time I watch radiology I get a little more convinced that's what I wanna do lol
As a radiologist, I can confirm that this is exactly how imaging rounds are done.
Meanwhile Bill be like: oh wow, that's the most free time AND light I've got this week.
As an ortho resident, not making a STAT radiologic order is like not having STAT lab for internals..ortho stuffs are all the same in every country or nation haaaa..
As a radtech I must say this is the most proactive and talkative radiologist I have ever seen.
And tbh though, I much prefer a radiologist who is actively reviewing the relevance and justification for an exam. In my country they typically have accepted doing the exam as is takes less effort than correcting/arguing. As a trial I have had a day where I deleted half of the clinical orders I thought were pointless bull****. And no one noticed. Patients discharged and I only got 1 phonecall about one of the deleted orders.
The best shifts are the ones that are covered by a radiologist who hasn't lost the will to fight! My hospital has borrowed some great ones from other hospitals due to staffing issues, and they were sociable and talkative to boot :)
