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

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

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.

Question regarding ultrasound

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?
