Visible Pneumatosis in Necrotizing Enterocolitis at 100% Oxygen Supplementation?

Hi, hope this is an appropriate question for this sub.

Currently studying for a licensing exam in Germany and have come across the info in various textbooks that pneumatosis is not always visible/ a reliable sign of NEC if the infant is being supplemented with 100% O2. Why is this the case? It's hard to find info on this as it's uncommon for the infant to be getting 100% O2 anyway for obvious reasons, but I would appreciate your feedback and ideas!

Edit: I'm asking specifically about an abdominal X-ray, forgot to mention this.

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.
