Workplace hired me as an aide even though I got my temporary license

By

One of my clinical rotations hired me as an aide a couple of months before I finished my program. Basically I was allowed to help out the radiology department but I was not allowed to make exposures. Now I finished the program and my registry is in a month. But this particular hospital takes a looooong time to process paperwork through because it’s a government run hospital. I’m still under the title as an aide but have a temporary license. So according to the state I can take X-rays but in my current job title I cannot. My boss is already telling me to go do cases in the OR or do portable runs alone. I addressed to my supervisors that I am not comfortable making any exposures alone because of the job title not changing right away. Yet, they put me on a schedule as a tech and short staffed the shift. I’m basically expected to do tech work even though I have an aide title and get aide pay. Is this legal?

Edit: I live in New York so only a tech or a doctor can legally take xrays in my state

AI for radiology - A survey

By
Hello folks! We are a group of students from Karolinska Institutet and Stockholm University (Sweden). We are conducting a short survey (it should not take more than 10 minutes of your time) to evaluate an Artificial Intelligence framework for evaluating medical imaging and, in particular, the effect that explainability can have on clinicians' attitudes toward it. We welcome anyone who interacts with medical imaging to take our survey, so please, feel free to do it even if you are still a student or an intern! If you know someone who works in the field, please, pass them the survey. It would help us greatly. https://bit.ly/RTEX_survey Thanks in advance to all of you! submitted by /u/francozzz [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/r2ratp/ai_for_radiology_a_survey/
