MRIs and dental work

Hello all. I am in the dental field and it was my understanding that dental work is safe in MRIs. Obviously if it something removable it should be removed prior. I recently had a patient who said he can’t have an MRI because of the metal post in his tooth and I’m wondering where he got that info. Anyway a quick google search and it’s as clear as mud. Some source say it’s ok and some said there are risks. The material use could be stainless steel or it could be cobalt-chromium or nickel-chromium. What do you all in the radiology field say?

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.
