Linear energy transfer and sieverts.

I posted a few days ago and wanted to say thank you for the help last time.

I'm not studying radiology or anything healthcare related but I'm working on a physics project. Also I'm bad at math and physics, but onwards.

So my understanding is that sieverts are a measure of how much radiation, type of radiation, and location of radiation in the body to determine the dose someone is exposed to.

Linear energy transfer is how much radiation is being deposited in tissue along its journey of being scattered or emitted from it's source.

These two are linked are they not? Or are they talking about two different phenomenon? Would linear energy transfer be linked to type of radiation and amount?

Or how else could I link them or talk about them?

Thank you!

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.

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.
