Work-up for bone islands?

So I’m a new FM attending and I’ve encountered these a few times as incidentalomas in reports. I realize these are “do not touch” lesions, but do these need any kind of follow-up at all?

I have a 71F patient with a 5-7 mm sclerotic rib lesion on chest CT which was called a bone island. If I wanted to evaluate this further, what would be ideal modality and timeframe?

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/
