Received abdominal CT Scan with contrast yesterday. Extremely Nauseous!

Yesterday I had an abdominal CT scan with contrast done due to having stomach pain, indigestion, bloating, not feeling completely emptied out, and excessive gas that has been going on for months. I was given an IV of the contrast dye and literally almost threw up on myself. I’ve never experienced anything like that before.

The scan only lasted about 20 seconds! I really hope the tech got good images because the study was so short. Is this normal??

After having the ct scan done I got some food and was extremely nauseated and almost threw up eating the food.

It is the next day and I am still extremely nauseated, constipated, and fatigued. Is this normal? If so, how long does this last?

AI for radiology - A survey

Hello folks! We are a group of students from Karolinska Institutet and Stockholm University (Sweden). We are conducting a short survey (it should not take more than 10 minutes of your time) to evaluate an Artificial Intelligence framework for evaluating medical imaging and, in particular, the effect that explainability can have on clinicians' attitudes toward it. We welcome anyone who interacts with medical imaging to take our survey, so please, feel free to do it even if you are still a student or an intern! If you know someone who works in the field, please, pass them the survey. It would help us greatly. https://bit.ly/RTEX_survey Thanks in advance to all of you! submitted by /u/francozzz [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/r2ratp/ai_for_radiology_a_survey/
