mSv in 1 Minute of Flouro?

I’ve unfortunately had some bad medical luck this year, which has required me to get some diagnostic imaging done. This has triggered me to start keeping up with how much radiation I’ve been exposed to, because I’ve had quite a bit in the past as a patient. But also because I work as a RN in the OR. Although I always wear lead I’m exposed to quite a bit there as well.

I’m trying to figure out a rough estimate for the mSv dose per minute of flouro time. Is there any general rates for this? And sources? I’ve tried doing some research but the answers vary wildly. Thanks!

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/
