Radiologic technologists can communicate clearly.

Abstract

To improve professional communications skills of students, a pilot course in "Scientific Communications" was included as a requirement in the new baccalaureate program in the Department of Radiological Sciences, School of Related Health Sciences, University of Health Sciences/The Chicago Medical School, in 1973-74. During four years, the course has been revised to meet recognized needs of students. Learning objectives and course content are described as an encouragement to other schools to train radiologic technologists in professional communications.

Malaria in multiple family members--Chicago, Illinois, 2006.

Human malaria is a parasitic disease transmitted through the bite of an infected female Anopheles mosquito. Most malaria cases in the United States occur in travelers who recently visited areas where malaria is endemic without taking adequate chemoprophylaxis. This report describes five cases of Plasmodium falciparum malaria that occurred in a family residing near Chicago, Illinois, during 2006. These cases underscore the importance of malaria-prevention measures (e.g., avoidance of mosquito bites and appropriate chemoprophylaxis) for travelers to malaria-endemic areas.
