Incorrect CT Reading and Exposure Limits

Been having terrible TMJ lately and was referred by my TMJ specialist to have a neck CT done w and w/o contrast. There was an incidental finding of minor fibrotic changes in the apical lungs.

Had to get a follow up chest CT w/o contrast that showed everything clear no issues

Just curious how one guy see something and the other doesn’t. At this point I’m assuming the 2nd all clear is the right one.

2nd question i know you guys get a lot. But I’ve had a done of work up over the last 2.5 years with differing opinions from radiologists on my exposures.

Age 32 A HIDA scan, a gastric emptying and an upper GI.

Age 34 this year - 3 upper GIs, a neck CT w/ and w/o contrast and the chest CT. Both CTS were with in a week of each other. Not sure if that matters or not.

Just seems like a ton of exposure to me but radiologist and doctors have differing opinions if it’s been a lot or not.

Onetonline salary search change?

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

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?
