Notch view?

So I work in a busy Ortho office, we have patients come in all the time who have already had Ap,Lat, sunrise x-rays & MRI s already completed, confirmed ACL tears. Our surgeon will add on just a notch view for these patients. Personally I feel if it's a view he needs I have no problem shooting it, but I have a co-worker who complains every time that we're wasting time, money, pt exposure for no benefit. So Rads of the world do you see a diagnostic benefit to adding this view or do you think we should have enough information already without this extra picture. I know I should probably talk with my Ortho, I just didn't want to seem like I was questioning his protocol and was looking for some opinions here first.

Thanks

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?
