Medical knowledge is doubling every 60 days. There are no shortcuts for training physicians. MEDICINE IS DIFFICULT AND SERIOUS BUSINESS. 👇🏼👇🏼

I recognize patients in most countries do not have access to the super expensive cancer drugs we talk about at meetings in the US. I will continue to make recommendations for best cancer treatment with the drugs patients have access to, while advocating for affordable care.

1. How do we tell primary lung cancer from metastatic cancers from other sites? It’s correct to say we should use all available clinical, radiologic and pathologic information, but that’s too vague to be helpful in a practical sense. Here I offer some tips. #tweetorial

Step 1. Tie a crappy non-reproducible "biomarker" to a drug Step 2. "Teach" a chosen few pathologists how to "read" the crappy stain Step 3: Have these "trained people" declare themselves as "trainers" Step 4: Train the victims (regular pathologists)

Hemos presentado el estudio 🔬Análisis de la Anatomía Patológica en España 🔬 con el objetivo de poner de relevancia que, sin la #AnatomíaPatológica no se podrían diagnosticar enfermedades, ya que los patólogos son los notarios de la Medicina. #SEAP2024 bit.ly/4bPdOGX

My son has a TTP refractory to conventional treatment and now needs CAPLACIZUMAB, which does not exist in Uruguay and its importation from Switzerland is complicated 🤷‍♂️ Does anyone know of anywhere else I can get it? Twitter do your magic... 🤞🤞

Pura maldad grafitear el mural de Quintela realizado por Gallino. Se perdieron los códigos? Capaz que el autor del daño recapacita y da una mano para arreglarlo.

From 2022 @NCCN guidelines for patients. No mention of pathologists in the “diagnostic team”. 👎🏾
