Need some positioning/central ray tips

I am a student and I am struggling with several exams in particular. I would appreciate any tips and tricks that might help this stuff "click". Thanks.

Oblique L-Spine (where do you put the central ray, i know about 2inches up from Crest and 2 inches medial to Asis, but it is difficult to palpate that on many patients.)

Oblique Ribs (on table, i have a problem with cutting off the sternum)

Abdomens and KUBs (this one is kinda embarrassing, I always seem to be an inch off high/low).

While we are at it, I don't have much trouble with lateral wrists but am still looking to improve.

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/

Radiology program

I’m from New York looking to attend a Rad tech program. I work for Northwell and recently came across a flyer for John Patrick University. it is an online AS program with clinicals in person (which my job will allow me to do) It seems as if this program is not accredited by JCERT but the school is accredited by ACCSC. I reached out to the director of the school and also the arrt and they say that there would be no issue taking boards. I haven’t really heard of anyone going through online program so I wanted to make sure everything checks out. Since this was being advertised at work I couldn’t see why they would put something that wouldn’t be accepted out.
