Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

POD PATROL CLASSICS S1.E18 - Dr. Nick Strasser, MD - Vanderbilt Sports Medicine/ Foot & Ankle Ortho
Q: Do you ever get ultrasound if you're suspicious of peroneal tendons? Does ultrasound play a role for you at all?
Dikis wants to develop in-office ultrasound skills to assess tendon abnormalities and potentially avoid MRI in some cases. Strasser uses ultrasound for injections, suspected tendon dislocations and diagnostic tendon sheath injections, while noting that peroneal tendon imaging can be challenging.
POD PATROL CLASSICS S1.E18 - Dr. Nick Strasser, MD - Vanderbilt Sports Medicine/ Foot & Ankle Ortho
Q: What is your imaging look like? What do you get for advanced imaging in a case like this?
Both surgeons generally use MRI to assess the injury and associated tendon and ligament problems. Strasser also often obtains CT to better define cystic changes and the extent of bone involvement.
S3.E41 - New Podcasts, New App, & What's Next for Pod Patrol with Dr. Ashley Dikis
Q: As someone who was at the time, undoubtedly in my mind, the number one program in the country, choosing externships, externs to come on those externships, how do you pick those people?
Ashley says selection is difficult because schools have different curricula and grading systems and applicants can look similar on paper. Programs use measures such as GPA to distinguish candidates, but a holistic view, including personality and fit with a program, also matters.
S3.E41 - New Podcasts, New App, & What's Next for Pod Patrol with Dr. Ashley Dikis
Q: What are your thoughts on this past season and what you'd be looking to do with another season?
Jeff says the podcast has been enjoyable and has created new opportunities, while noting that its future was initially uncertain. Ashley supports continuing and says there are still interesting people and work in podiatry to feature.
S3.E40 - The Mistakes That Keep Chronic Wounds From Healing with Dr. Matt Regulski, DPM
Q: What role does debridement play in managing biofilm and how do you protect the wound after debridement?
Debridement is critical to disrupt biofilm, but biofilm can reform quickly; combine debridement with agents like Blastex and collagenase, then use collagen or collagen-based dressings and barrier strategies to prevent rapid reformation and support epithelialization.
