Is radiology technology really for me?

By

Hey guys,

I am 18 years old, and I just finished my first semester in my Diagnostic Imaging program. I did well, but honestly I was miserable in it. I feel like I have the ability to do it, but I really don't think that I will like this as a career. I went into it because I knew it was possible to find part time work, and it pays decently. Now I feel like I made a mistake. However, I don't even know what else I would like to pursue. I feel like I don't know what I want. Also, I am more of an introverted person, so speaking to people all the time really doesn't appeal to me, and I thought this would be a "clean" career, but after leaning about it, surprise surprise, it isn't.

I don't really know what I am asking...but I guess I'm trying to figure out if it gets better? Or if I hate it now, should I probably just leave and not waste anymore time because it gets worse?

Also, I keep on thinking that this is a "you're guaranteed a job" after you graduate kind of profession, but is that truly the case? I live near Montreal.

One more thing, what other things other than working in a hospital can you do with a degree in this? I feel like it's mainly hospital work, which is pretty discouraging.

Onetonline salary search change?

By
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

By
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? Thanks! submitted by /u/doomyboomy [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/oi2nmk/question_regarding_ultrasound/
