I’m a current student and my clinical director is telling me I’m shooting my l self in the foot with my absences.

Am I really shooting myself in the foot for future jobs/prospects by missing a couple days or leaving early for appointments or is my director just trying to scare me. I know the community is tight knit but come on. I literally graduate in less then a month and I already have all my comps and I’m scoring in the 70s for all my reviews. Does she seriously think my future career is in jeopardy? I only have to make up 4 hours. Wtf!

Edit: I’m sorry if I gave off the wrong impressions. Medical imaging is what I’ve been wanting to do for the last 5 years and I’m almost there. I truly feel like I enjoy what I do and that I do a good job at it but I’m nervous and bothered and just wanted to rant. I came here hoping that I was just over thinking about the whole situation but was bombarded with hate. To those who have been in my shoes and understand me, thank you.

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 ...

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/

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? Thanks! submitted by /u/doomyboomy [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/oi2nmk/question_regarding_ultrasound/
