rad techs: best fun/zippy replies to patient questions?

2nd year rad tech student here. As I have found more and more ease in doing exams, I'm able to refine my patient care style and I'm trying to think of creative or witty responses to typical questions patients might ask... the kind of thing that just lightens the atmosphere for them or puts them at ease.

I have 1 that I have begun using frequently. When someone asks "Did you see anything?" I say "I saw some bones. They're all there." Or something along those lines.

Hopefully this question makes sense. A tech I worked with had something he would say when they asked if it's safe to get an x-ray and he would say something about how he only glows when the lights are out, except it wasn't that, it was more clever. I want to be clever as well as efficient.

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