How to better explain to patients how x-rays work as a student?

Hello, im an x ray student and I was ask a good question from a PT. The PT ask why we are x raying the left side of the lumbar if the pain is on the right? At my site our protocol for lumbar is AP and LT LAT. The tech I was with said that x ray our 2 dimensional so it didn't matter. Could someone explain on how to better explain this to the patient and make it make sense?

AI for radiology - A survey

Hello folks! We are a group of students from Karolinska Institutet and Stockholm University (Sweden). We are conducting a short survey (it should not take more than 10 minutes of your time) to evaluate an Artificial Intelligence framework for evaluating medical imaging and, in particular, the effect that explainability can have on clinicians' attitudes toward it. We welcome anyone who interacts with medical imaging to take our survey, so please, feel free to do it even if you are still a student or an intern! If you know someone who works in the field, please, pass them the survey. It would help us greatly. https://bit.ly/RTEX_survey Thanks in advance to all of you! submitted by /u/francozzz [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/r2ratp/ai_for_radiology_a_survey/
