Ultrasound for Plantar Fasciitis - should we expect a Radiologist to be there or just a tech?

As the title says. May be getting an ultrasound for plantar fasciitis soon. Ultrasound does have one advantage in that images can be taken in real time with movement (from my understanding, fMRI is not available everywhere anyways).

Should we expect to see a radiologist when the exam is done, or just a technician? Can we request that the radiologist do part of the scanning?

Edit: I guess this also begs the loaded question - how often do Radiologists interact with patients?

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?
