FROM THE ANNUAL MEETING OF THE RADIOLOGICAL SOCIETY OF NORTH AMERICA

Dr. Singh reported no relevant financial disclosures. Dr. Wilson disclosed receiving a research grant from Lantheus Medical Imaging and being on the advisory board of Koninklijke Philips Electronics.

*CORRECTION, 1/20/2011: The original version of this article stated an incorrect figure for the number of ED visits for abdominal pain in the U.S. each year. The correct figure is 8 million.
