Balancing Care and Authenticity in Digital Collections: A Radical Empathy Approach To Working With Disk Images
Both traditional recordkeeping and radical empathy frameworks ask us to carefully consider: the presence of sensitive information within digital content; those who created, are captured by, and are affected by a record (or the absence of that record); and the consequences of retaining or discarding that information. However, automated digital archiving workflows â in order to handle the scale and volume of digital content â discourage contextual and empathetic decision-making in favour of preselected decisions.
This paper explores the implications on labor and privacy of the common practice to âtake and keep it allâ within the context of radical empathy. Practices which promote retention of complete disk images and encourage the creation of access copies with redacted sensitive data are vulnerable. The decision to discard must be deliberate and, often, must be enacted manually, outside of the workflow.
The motivation for this model is that the researcher, archivist, curator, or librarian can always return to the original disk image in order to demonstrate authenticity, allow for emulation or access, or to generate new access copies. However, this practice poses ethical privacy concerns and does not demonstrate care. We recognize that the resources necessary to review disk images and make contextual decisions that balance both privacy and authenticity are sizable due to the manual nature of this work: this places strain and further labor on staff and practitioners using current digital archival and preservation tools. We proffer that there is a need to develop tools which aid in efficient and explicit redaction, but also allow for needed contextual and empathetic decision-making. Further we propose that more staff time is required to make these decisions and if that staff time is not available, then the institution should consider itself incapable of ethically stewarding the content and protecting those affected.

An introduction to the EULARâOMERACT rheumatoid arthritis MRI reference image atlas
This article gives a short overview of the development and characteristics of the OMERACT rheumatoid arthritis MRI scoring system (RAMRIS), followed by an introduction to the use of the EULARâOMERACT rheumatoid arthritis MRI reference image atlas. With this atlas, MRIs of wrist and metacarpophalangeal joints of patients with rheumatoid arthritis can be scored for synovitis, bone oedema, and bone erosion, guided by standard reference images

The EULARâOMERACT rheumatoid arthritis MRI reference image atlas: the metacarpophalangeal joints
This paper presents the metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joint magnetic resonance images of the EULARâOMERACT rheumatoid arthritis MRI reference image atlas. The illustrations include synovitis in the MCP joints (OMERACT RA magnetic resonance imaging scoring system (RAMRIS), grades 0â3), bone oedema in the metacarpal head and the phalangeal base (grades 0â3), and bone erosion in the metacarpal head and the phalangeal base (grades 0â3, and examples of higher grades). The presented reference images can be used to guide scoring of MCP joints according to the OMERACT RA MRI scoring system
The development of the EULARâOMERACT rheumatoid arthritis MRI reference image atlas
Based on a previously developed rheumatoid arthritis MRI scoring system (OMERACT 2002 RAMRIS), the development team agreed which joints, MRI features, MRI sequences, and image planes would best illustrate the scoring system in an atlas. After collecting representative examples for all grades for each abnormality (synovitis, bone oedema, and bone erosion), the team met for a three day period to review the images and choose by consensus the most illustrative set for each feature, site, and grade. A predefined subset of images (for example, for erosionâall coronal slices through the bone) was extracted. These images were then re-read by the group at a different time point to confirm the scores originally assigned. Finally, all selected images were photographed and formatted by one centre and distributed to all readers for final approval

High-velocity white dwarfs: thick disk, not dark matter
We present an alternative interpretation of the nature of the extremely cool,
high-velocity white dwarfs identified by Oppenheimer et al (2001) in a
high-latitude astrometric survey. We argue that the velocity distribution of
the majority of the sample is more consistent with the high-velocity tail of a
rotating population, probably the thick disk, rather than a pressure-supported
halo system. Indeed, the observed numbers are well matched by predictions based
on the kinematics of a complete sample of nearby M dwarfs. Analysing only stars
showing retrograde motion gives a local density close to that expected for
white dwarfs in the stellar (R^-3.5) halo. Under our interpretation, none of
the white dwarfs need be assigned to the dark-matter, heavy halo. However,
luminosity functions derived from observations of these stars can set important
constraints on the age of the oldest stars in the Galactic Disk.Comment: 11 pages, 5 figures; accepted for ApJ, 29 May 200
The EULAR-OMERACT rheumatoid arthritis MRI reference image atlas: the wrist joint
This paper presents the wrist joint MR images of the EULARâOMERACT rheumatoid arthritis MRI reference image atlas. Reference images for scoring synovitis, bone oedema, and bone erosions according to the OMERACT RA MRI scoring (RAMRIS) system are provided. All grades (0â3) of synovitis are illustrated in each of the three wrist joint areas defined in the scoring systemâthat is, the distal radioulnar joint, the radiocarpal joint, and the intercarpal-carpometacarpal joints. For reasons of feasibility, examples of bone abnormalities are limited to five selected bones: the radius, scaphoid, lunate, capitate, and a metacarpal base. In these bones, grades 0â3 of bone oedema are illustrated, and for bone erosion, grades 0â3 and examples of higher grades are presented. The presented reference images can be used to guide scoring of wrist joints according to the OMERACT RA MRI scoring system
