What does changing scan thickness in modern CTs really do?

We use a GE Revolution in the hospital where I'm doing my training. I can tell it's not coupling the detectors because pitch and scan time stay the same, and also because I can alway retro at the minimum thickness whatever slice thickness I choose. Only thing that changes is the dose, that halves as the thickness doubles.

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/
