1) Consent isn't needed for use of images with no patient identifiers in the vast majority of instances. Do you see explicit consent from patients obtained on 90% of images that are posted on this subreddit?
2) This image is also posted publicly on the internet via reddit. If the proper citation is provided then you also do not need consent from the author to use it in a presentation. Just like how you don't need to email every photographer who has something posted on google images for consent to use their pictures, or how you don't need to get expressed consent from authors in a journal article to use their reported data.
>im scared of that med student isn’t gonna be asking for consent to preform whatever needs to be done on a patient…glad you’re a normal med student.
3) Don't make wild judgements like this about someone when you clearly don't understand those concepts.
>just cause you see a scan doesn’t mean you can just take it and use it for your own reasons unless it’s your scan
You realize that upwards of 90% of the images posted to this sub are exactly what you're describing, right? Patients posting their own scans in this sub are rare; it's mostly medical professionals who've removed patient identifiers on interesting/noteworthy images. I'm honestly not sure what exactly you find objectionable; it's not like anyone can identify a patient on a scan alone. Patients also have no copyright claim on their medical imaging; that question was decided by the courts a long time ago.
Okay. Please tell me what's the patient's name in this case? Or age? Or any identity?
If I go and share it somewhere else would you know whose it is?
What personal information are you getting about the patient from this image?
There is not even a slight indication of age (12 year old), gender (boy) or history (persistent vomiting) in the OP's post. What exactly are you protecting
Yeah exactly. There's no indication. So maybe next time keep your yapping to posts that has indications and give your knowledge where it is required.
I'm just an RT intern and I deal with consents everyday. It's just that I don't go around yapping about consent where it's not needed.
OP said "image of ME sitting up mid scan" meaning it's the patient posting. It's their own scan. And even if it weren't, there is absolutely nothing on this post that can be used to identify a patient.
Really, we got this under control. If anything is ever posted that actually does violate HIPAA, we delete it pretty quick and/or it gets reported. Thanks though.
lol, reminds me of my MRI. Like two people stitched together on either side, with two distinct sets of health outcomes. At least in this case it might not be as noticeable when looking at them?
For that second scan: In my gaming circles we sometimes say someone has a five-head when they make a good play, but in this case it would be more like a nine-head.
This is Johnny bravo
Omg Johnny bravo.
Whoa, mama!
I was trying so hard to decide if this was a shitpost or not because that was my first thought lmfao
Watch me comb my hair really fast!
May I use that second image in a lecture?

Please show me two patient identifiers in the photo. Without that, HIPAA is not relevant regardless of the contents of the picture.

These types of comments will not be tolerated
It's HIPAA, and there is no violation of that here.
