My son had an X-ray today and something happened that I think is a bit odd.

My son needed an x-ray on his arm today. The radiographer invited me into the x-ray room in the hospital, which I found unusual because they normally insist on parents staying outside while the x-ray is taken.

Long story short the radiographer took two X-rays while I was standing next to my son and not behind the glass screen. I was expecting him to ask me to get behind the screen at some point.

I've only had two X-rays in my entire life so I assume there wasn't any real danger to me, at the same time I kind of feel that maybe I shouldn't have been where I was when the x-rays were taken.

I do apologise if this is a really silly question and I don't want to offend anyone, but I just feel that something not quite right happened.

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.
