| Planning around staff shortages in radiology might seem like a future inevitability for departmental directors, British researchers wrote in a Radiography study published this month. But employees’ greatest source of psychological stress doesn’t stem from a lack of colleagues—it comes from the uncertainty of a constantly shifting job market.

| Researchers from Cleveland Clinic have discovered a new subtype of multiple sclerosis (MS), according to research published in Lancet Neurology. These findings, they said, highlight the importance of developing more sensitive imaging techniques for real-time evaluations of brain pathology.
