from the Publisher W Troy Anderson PUBLISHER Twin Cities TANDERSON@MDNEWS.COM (612) 396-1455 ELCOME TO THE August issue of MD News Twin Cities! At the time of this writing, it is the Fourth of July holiday and more than 100 degrees outside. I am relaxing at a cabin on the lake (well, working is relaxing to me) and asking myself: "What is the one thing a physician, such as yourself, looks for when receiving your monthly issue of MD News?" I believe all readers of MD News want to be informed, learn something new and be a part of the incredible health care market that we have in the Twin Cities. This has been and always will be our goal! In this month's cover story, we speak with Scott Sidney, M.D., with Consulting Radiologists, Ltd. (CRL) about the practice's recently produced "2012 Quality Report." This report was used to show areas of exceeding standards, as well as map future growth and improvements. Check out why this report is so valuable to CRL, and how a process like this could be beneficial to you and your company. Thanks for taking a moment to read MD News.

We encourage you to share your perspectives, ideas and suggestions about future issues, topics and interests.
