Medical Overuse: Common Cases
The Curbsiders Podcast
Team up with the authors of the JAMA Medicine series on Medical Overuse, Dr. Dan Morgan @dr_dmorgan (University of Maryland) and Dr. Deborah Korenstein @DKorenstein (Memorial Sloan Kettering). We discuss procalcitonin (again!), the dangers of incidentalomas, risks of chest CT for lung cancer screening, the easiest place to get antibiotics for a viral infection, and why not to treat subclinical hypothyroidism despite guidelines. Trying to find ways to shed the fat off of some common medical practices? Look no further.
First, listen to the podcast. After listening, ACP members can take the CME/MOC quiz for free.

The Curbsiders Podcast
ACP has teamed up with The Curbsiders to conduct and broadcast a series of interviews with physicians on a variety of internal medicine-related topics in a "curbside" setting. The Curbsiders Podcast features three board-certified Internists as they interview the experts to provide listeners with clinical pearls and practice-changing knowledge. Join The Curbsiders as they serve up some triple-distilled knowledge (and maybe a little humor) for your continuing medical education, available exclusively to ACP members by completing the CME/MOC quiz.
