(AP) — The Texas doctor convicted in the death of pop superstar Michael Jackson is suing the state for stripping his right to practice medicine, and his attorney said Thursday that the cardiologist has former patients eager for him to work again.

Conrad Murray, who was released from a California jail this week after serving less than two years for involuntary manslaughter in Jackson's death, accuses the Texas Medical Board of prematurely revoking his license. Murray claims in his lawsuit filed in Austin that his 2011 conviction isn't final in California until his appeals are exhausted.

Murray states in an affidavit that he is more than $400,000 in debt and can't afford to pay court costs.

"Anybody who wants to work in this country ought to be able to have the right to do so. Dr. Murray is like everyone else, in that he needs to be able to do his line of work," said Charles Peckham, Murray's attorney.

Texas Medical Board spokesman Jarrett Schneider said the agency cannot comment on pending litigation.

Murray was convicted of causing Jackson's death in June 2009 by providing him with the powerful anesthetic propofol as a sleep aid. Jackson was in the midst of preparations for a series of comeback concerts and Murray was serving as his physician.

Murray filed the lawsuit Friday, three days before he was freed after serving half of a maximum four-year sentence.

Murray previously maintained clinics in Houston and Las Vegas. His medical license is currently suspended in California.

In court papers filed in Texas, Murray expresses concern that the revocation of his Texas license could give California reason to take the same action.

"The Texas Medical Board, in taking my license puts me in imminent harm of irreparable injury," Murray said in court papers.

Brian Panish, an attorney for the Jackson family, has said Murray should not have "a chance to hurt anyone else" by practicing medicine.

Pauly D's Baby Mama Reaches Out on Twitter

He's had his fair share of drama dealing with the custody battle of his little girl, and now it appears Pauly D's baby mama Amanda Markert is finally reaching out to him.


On Wednesday (October 30), Amanda took to her Twitter account to tweet the "Jersey Store" star about their daughter Amabella.


"This is getting out of hand, you've had my number since day 1. Come bond with her any day, any time you and your family want," Miss Markert shared.


This online offering surfaced a week after meeting with lawyers to discuss a custody agreement between the DJ and his former fling.


During a recent interview, the 33-year-old revealed his nerves and excitement about becoming a dad, touching on his relationship with Amanda. "It's for the baby, and it could be best to have the original mother, and I'm obviously the father, so I want to take care of the baby."


He continued, "I want to give the baby the best life she ever had, and when I see the pictures.. she's the first girl to ever steal my heart. She's adorable, I love her and I cannot wait."


Also discussing the situation between he and Amanda, Pauly states that they are in "a custody battle, so I want to see the baby as much as I can, so I don't know how that works my first time, but I want my baby, so we'll see what happens. It's in the lawyers' hands now."


In regards to Miss Markert's intentions, the reality star admits that he believes 100 percent that she's only out for her 15 minutes of fame.

Orlando Bloom Spills on Split from Miranda Kerr

Opening up a bit about his tenuous relationship in an interview with the one and only Katie Couric, Orlando Bloom spoke briefly about Miranda Kerr, his son, Flynn Bloom and the family they will continue to be.


Airing this coming Friday (November 1), the talk show episode finally got some answers out of Orlando. "We love each other. We're a family. We're going to be in each other's lives for the rest of our lives. There's no question that for the sake of our son and everything else, we're going to support one another and love each other as parents to Flynn," the 36-year-old said.


"Life sometimes doesn't work out exactly as we plan or hope for," the "Hobbit" stud continued. "But we're adults, I'm 36 and now she's 30. We're professionals. We love and care about each other. Most of all, we love our son."


The celebrity couple demonstrated that fact on Saturday, when Mirando and Orlando stepped out with little 2-year-old Flynn in New York City, looking like a complete family unit.


Married in July of 2010, they have been separated for the past several months, and plan to continue seeing one another for the benefit of their family.

The November issue of the Journal of the American College of Radiology (JACR) focuses on a variety of issues relating to clinical practice, practice management, health services and policy, and radiology education and training. Topics to be covered include imaging recommendations for acute stroke and transient ischemic attack patients; managing incidental findings on abdominal and pelvic computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI); CT scan parameters and radiation dose; optimizing radiation use during fluoroscopic procedures; and the increasing role of non-radiologists in performing ultrasound-guided invasive procedures.


Articles include:


Imaging Recommendations for Acute Stroke and Transient Ischemic Attack Patients: A Joint Statement by the American Society of Neuroradiology, the American College of Radiology and the Society of Neurointerventional Surgery

Max Wintermark, M.D., MAS; Pina C. Sanelli, M.D., MPH; Gregory W. Albers, M.D.; Jacqueline A. Bello, M.D.; Colin P. Derdeyn, M.D.; Steven W. Hetts, M.D.; Michele H. Johnson, M.D.; Chelsea S. Kidwell, M.D.; Michael H. Lev, M.D.; David S. Liebeskind, M.D.; Howard A. Rowley, M.D.; Pamela W. Schaefer, M.D.; Jeffrey L. Sunshine, M.D., PhD; Greg Zaharchuk, M.D., PhD; Carolyn C. Meltzer, M.D.

This article proposes a simple, pragmatic approach that will allow the reader to develop an optimal imaging algorithm for stroke patients at their institution.


Managing Incidental Findings on Abdominal and Pelvic CT and MRI, Part 3: White Paper of the ACR Incidental Findings Committee II on Splenic and Nodal Findings

Matthew T. Heller, M.D.; Mukesh Harisinghani, M.D.; Jeffrey D. Neitlich, M.D.; Paula Yeghiayan, M.D.; Lincoln L. Berland, M.D.

This white paper details the consensus of the ACR Incidental Findings II Committee on splenic and nodal findings.


CT Scan Parameters and Radiation Dose: Practical Advice for Radiologists

Siva P. Raman, M.D.; Mahadevappa Mahesh, MS, PhD; Robert V. Blasko, BS, RT(R)(CT); Elliot K. Fishman, M.D.

A detailed understanding of a few basic CT scan parameters is essential, and knowledge of how to manipulate these parameters to produce diagnostic images at lower doses is critical for safe imaging.


Optimizing Radiation Use During Fluoroscopic Procedures: A Quality and Safety Improvement Project

James R. Duncan, M.D., PhD; Mandie Street, RT; Marshall Strother, BS; Daniel Picus, M.D.

A data-driven improvement project that includes processes for data capture, analysis and feedback has led to a substantial and sustained reduction in radiation exposure per procedure.


The Increasing Role of Non-Radiologists in Performing Ultrasound-Guided Invasive Procedures

Richard E. Sharpe, Jr, M.D., MBA; Levon N. Nazarian, M.D.; David C. Levin, M.D.; Laurence Parker, PhD; Vijay M. Rao, M.D.

From 2004-2010, non-radiologists significantly increased their utilization of ultrasound-guided procedures, and 2010 represents the first year that non-radiologists performed more of these procedures than radiologists.
