Scoliosis: Fulcrum & Lateral Bending

What I know so far:

Lateral bending shows the nature of the scoliosis whether it's structural and non-structural. It also shows the rigidity of the spine and determines how successful reduction of the spine will be.

Fulcrum view places a bolster (cylinder) at the apex of the curve. Besides this, I cannot find enough information on the benefits of this view and what information it provides for orthos or radiologists.

I have a few questions:

Why bend both ways for the lateral bending? What exactly does the fulcrum bending view show? How does these images change/aid in orthos planning for corrective surgery Thanks!

Onetonline salary search change?

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.

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.
