Craig Hacking chats with Wui K Chong and Tim Squire about imaging in space and radiation protection during spaceflights. Should we spin the patient like an ice-dancer rather than the gantry? If you freeze ice blocks in zero G would they be more or less clear than on earth? Should Frank resign over a computer mouse incident? All the big questions answered, plus Factorio and Project Hail Mary.

As promised, we’re dropping this in the feed for posterity. Andrew wrote it with a handy assist from AI for the Radiopaedia 2025 virtual conference. It was designed to align with the daily subspecialty and visual themes of the event. Many people enjoyed it (some probably didn’t) but here it is for you all in audiobook form, read by the wonderful Alex Furness. Let us know what you think: podcast@radiopaedia.org

Thoracic radiologists Jeffrey Kanne, Miranda Siemienowicz and Jonathan Chung discuss the current global status of lung cancer screening, offering tips and tricks for reading these studies. Meanwhile, Andrew and Frank talk about everything BUT pulmonary nodules: another shameful journal travesty, TB sniffer rats and ketamine epiphanies.
