Radiology Residents How many studies do you read overnight?

This is a follow up to the 2016 post Link here to see if the volume has increased over the last 5 years (certainly has at our institution)

So how much do you read overnight and what is your call schedule like?

I.e. 6 weeks of night float (7 days straight), 8pm-8am, with no in-house attending. Read all ED and Inpatient (XR, CT, MR, US). On average reach about 100 studies per night (30-50 CT, 5-10 US, 0-5 MR, and the rest XR).

Wanted to see what the CT volume is at other instituitions?

EDIT 1: In bold 8pm-8am

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/

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 ...
