Scaphoid non-union healed without a bone graft, percutaneous fixation only (pictures from before surgery -> union 3 months on). Thought I would post seeing as the majority of the scaphoid non-union posts involve bone grafting.

Overall I'm very pleased with the outcome. Just posting to help raise awareness as it has been a very stressful, long journey. Whilst I do still have the original X-Ray images from the day I fractured it, they're on a disc so I doubt I can get the pictures up haha.

Context:

Fractured my scaphoid in a climbing accident, X-Ray missed the fracture, found out it was fractured 4 months later, doctor said we could get away with not doing a bone graft, ultimately it is virtually healed 3 months on from surgery.

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/

Radiology program

I’m from New York looking to attend a Rad tech program. I work for Northwell and recently came across a flyer for John Patrick University. it is an online AS program with clinicals in person (which my job will allow me to do) It seems as if this program is not accredited by JCERT but the school is accredited by ACCSC. I reached out to the director of the school and also the arrt and they say that there would be no issue taking boards. I haven’t really heard of anyone going through online program so I wanted to make sure everything checks out. Since this was being advertised at work I couldn’t see why they would put something that wouldn’t be accepted out.
