C-Spine portable tips

How often do y'all do C-Spine portables? Today I had one for an elderly MVA patient, our one and only lab was preoccupied for 2 hours, so I had to do all of their X-rays by portable.

When they asked me if I could do the C-Spine, I assumed they meant do it as a portable as well. That's not what they meant, and I could've waited till they were done using the lab. Oops.

Either way I pulled it off, surprisingly with no retakes, but I still felt they could've been better. If anyone has done these before, what are good tips on how to position in the future?

Do rad techs/sonographers deal with vomit often?

Hi there! I’m currently considering going to school to be a rad tech or sonographer but I’m struggling to find out if you guys deal with vomit a lot. I am emetophobic (phobia of vomit) and, while I think I’d like these jobs a lot, it does worry me to think about having to deal with it often. Thank you for your help! submitted by /u/pootscoot1 [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/p5y0aa/do_rad_techssonographers_deal_with_vomit_often/
