A radiologist and his blog

A radiologist develops a blog and shares his experience with others posting interesting cases from his practice along with interesting abstracts. His blog has been visited by more than 30,000 visitors from all over the world with thousands of queries from patients, colleagues and students. He says that blogging may become a new way of exchanging information and building opinions in radiology.
