Questions about going into CT/MRI after x-ray school

Hey everyone! First of all I do plan to ask my clinical supervisor and program director about this, but am also curious to get all your opinions as well. I’ll be graduating x-ray school in July and am fairly confident I’d like to go into CT or MRI. I’m a little unsure about the best way to go about this. Start working somewhere in general x-ray and hope they’ll be willing to cross-train me in a different modality? Or just right away begin an MRI/CT program? What is the whole process of becoming certified in either modality like? I should add that my x-ray program fulfills the structured education requirements for CT, so theoretically all I have to do to become CT certified is complete the required clinical competencies and pass the CT board exam.

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.
