I had an unreadable carotid ultrasound

By

Okay so I had a carotis doppler ultrasound and on my right side the radiologist couldnt get a clear read where the arteries branch off under my jaw. He was worried about possible internal carotid dissection.

I had an mra about an hour later which was clear with no issues, however I am still getting symtoms, is it common for the ultrasound to not be able to see the internal carotid well enough and should I still be worried? Is there other tests I should get?

This was a week ago

Any advice or help would be appreciated Thanks

Do rad techs/sonographers deal with vomit often?

By
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/
