Is this normal behavior for a thyroid biposy?

Is it normal during a thyroid biposy for the sanitary paper to be placed on a female patient's abdomen and smoothed out by the radiologist by gliding hands over a breast?

Is it also normal for the radiologist to reach in the female patient's bra and tuck the sanitary paper in the bra? I was wearing the medical gown and a bra on top and fully dressed on the bottom.

I experienced an uncomfortable situation during a thyroid biposy and am unsure how to handle it and on my previous post someone said to comment here and ask about normal behavior during the procedure. I did have one other thyroid biposy five years ago, but did not experience anything like this.

It might be worth mentioning that after the sanitary paper was tucked into my bra I removed the radiologist hands immediately with my hands and started saying something, but was loudly talked over by the radiologist then after was given the shot of lidocaine in my thyroid and was told I couldn't talk or swallow during the procedure. Radiologist rushed out of the room after procedure was over.

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/

Radiology program

I’m from New York looking to attend a Rad tech program. I work for Northwell and recently came across a flyer for John Patrick University. it is an online AS program with clinicals in person (which my job will allow me to do) It seems as if this program is not accredited by JCERT but the school is accredited by ACCSC. I reached out to the director of the school and also the arrt and they say that there would be no issue taking boards. I haven’t really heard of anyone going through online program so I wanted to make sure everything checks out. Since this was being advertised at work I couldn’t see why they would put something that wouldn’t be accepted out.
