California college graduate interested in Rad Tech career. Where do I begin?

By

I have a degree in biomedical science and minor in chemistry. My undergrad GPA was not great, so I was somewhat limited in terms of what I could do, but I've always been interested in medical technology related careers.

In the area I live in, a community College (Los Rios system) is offering a rad tech program for CT/MRI/VIR, but they require me to be certified as a radiologic technologist in my state. I looked this up and it lead me to ARRT's certification exams, and now I'm confused. There seem to be multiple different exams so I'm not sure what to do from here. Am I assuming correctly that I only need to study for and take the Radiography Exam? Or do I have to take an exam for every listed subject (Radiation therapy, Mammography, etc.)?

Any advice on taking the first steps would be highly appreciated.

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/
