How well did you transfer from student to tech position? I start my first job soon and I’m NERVOUS.

By

So I just graduated, passed my registry, and applied for my state license (YAY!!!!!!). Now I start my new job as a registered xray tech within the next week. I’m so excited but also so nervous. The place I’m working is a past clinical site, so everyone knows me. I felt I was a good student (not the best but not horrible) and I definitely feel I still have room for lots of improvement. I just hope the techs don’t expect the world from me because I’m sure I’m going to make mistakes and will still need some guidance in the beginning. Is this normal? Should I be more confident? I’m more nervous for the OR setting (my weakest spot) and learning the whole hospital for when I do mobile runs. I just fear failure and I don’t want them to regret hiring me. I feel like I can be a good tech but I sometimes take a little longer than others to really get my groove. I also haven’t taken a single xray in months because of COVID so I’ll definitely need time to get back in the swing of things.

Onetonline salary search change?

By
Did this change? I am having a hard time finding the same lists I saw 2 months ago. https://www.onetonline.org/link/summary/29-2034.00#AdditionalInformation https://www.onetonline.org/link/localwages/29-2034.00?st=OR&p=hourly I used to be able to see wage by area and sort it by state and see the differences per state and per city in every state. I can't seem to find this same list anymore. I can see a bell curve but I can't sort by state or wage or anything.

Question regarding ultrasound

By
Hello radiologists, I have a quick question regarding ultrasounds of the scrotum. (Not asking for medical advice just wondering about something). I’ve done an ultrasound of the scrotum and the radiologist only took pictures of the right side of the testicle and then the left side but not in between so my question is, do ultrasounds show all “angles” of a testicle or does the device need to be held at various areas to show a full testicle? Because if only one side of the testicle is seen then wouldn’t the other side be as important in diagnosing something? Thanks! submitted by /u/doomyboomy [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/oi2nmk/question_regarding_ultrasound/
