Prof. dr. Jan Gielen - univ. Antwerp, Belgia, imagistica musculoscheletala p01

Radio Lu' Ghiea

Today's guest, prof. Jan Gielen from Belgium, is special. He is a pillar of musculoskeletal radiology in Europe, practicing MSK imaging for almost 40 years. He was a pioneer of musculoskeletal ultrasound in an era where ultrasound was in its infancy and imaging, the bone was done by x-ray only. He is a very friendly type of professor. He is happy to discuss radiology issues with anyone interested, and I saw him frequently discussing radiology topics at any given time. At breakfast, at lunch and at dinner. He likes to practice msk radiology as much as he loves to teach others (and he has done that all his life). He is a young and curious mind and he surprises me, every time we meet, with his clarity. He is my mentor.
Today, part one of a nice and warm conversation with prof. Gielen, about radiology and life, past, present and future.
Invitatul meu de azi, prof. Jan Gielen din Belgia este special. Este un stâlp al imagisticii musculoskeletale din Europa, practicand imagistica musculoscheletala de aproape 40 de ani.
Este un pionier al utilizarii ecografiei in diagnosticarea sistemului musculoscheletal, incepand practica într-o era in care ecografia era încă copilaria metodei, iar sistemul osos se investiga doar prin radiografia pe film.
Este acel tip de profesor prietenos, gata sa discute radiologie cu oricine este interesat si l-am văzut discutand radiologie frecvent la orice ora: dimineata, la pranz si seara.
Ii place sa practice radiologia atat de mult pe cat îi place să-i învețe pe alții (si a făcut asta întreaga sa viață).
Are o minte tanara si curioasă si ma surprinde mereu cu claritatea gandirii sale.
Este mentorul meu.
Astăzi, prima parte a conversatiei cu prof. Gielen, despre radiologie si viața, trecut, prezent si viitor.
