Coming to the professionals for rescue! I'm trying to remember the name of a set of reference materials for age studies from a past life

Hi there RADdit! (that has to have been used before) I am a high school forensics teacher coming to y'all for some help. In a past career I was a (please don't hurt me) support staff for a teleradiology company. My students are currently learning about differences in bone structures and how forensic pathologists use observations to give estimates on the age of victims from bone studies.

I know there was some reference material/textbook regarding age studies that I saw used a lot. I remember the cover of it from seeing it in the office. I nearly remember the author's name from seeing it referenced in the dictations all the time. So many radiographs of hands, it's like it's right in front of me. For the love of all things good, somebody please complete the thought in my head and help me remember who/what I'm thinking of. Google doesn't understand me.

I don't know if what I'm thinking of is THE book, but I know all of our radiologists referenced it when doing age studies so I have to assume it is well known within the community? Maybe?

Any help is appreciated! And if you're a technologist that has ever had to deal with a company called FRG, I apologize for calling you all the time to push to our DICOM. Y'all are underappreciated!

I got into the Rad Tech program!

I just want to share with you that I finally got into the program at our local community college and i’m starting this summer. For context, I’m already 30yo with a prior BS degree and decided on a career change. During the pandemic until this semester, I took my time to take all the pre-reqs and GEs required while working. I also volunteered at a hospital for over a year. It was optional due to COVID, but I still did it to get the brownie points. I finally applied last March 2023 and received good news last Friday. The program is based on a pointing system, so I think having good grades really mattered. It was my first time applying and the only program I applied to. I didn’t know it was possible to get in on your first try because of all of the stories I’ve been reading, so don’t lose hope because it’s possible! Wishing everyone who’s applying this year good luck. You can do this! If you have questions, I will do my best to answer them 😊 also if you have tips on how to survive this ...

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/
