mSv in 1 Minute of Flouro?

By

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!

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/
