Not looking for medical answers, looking for general answers to common radiology terms being used in an MRI

(1) I am just curious on what part of the MRI would Optical Nerves would be under? Would it be Visualized Sinuses? Or is that Orbits?

(2) What does it mean for sinus to be assymetic hypoplasia (I AM NOT ASKING FOR MEDICAL ADVICE OR A DIAGNOSIS) I am just wondering what hypoplasia means. Google says its an underdevelopment of an organ? So does that mean its smaller in nature to the opposing side?

(3) What does Atelectasis mean? It says Google that it's a collapse of... so now I am a bit confused lol.

It says that they noticed a asymetrical hypoplasia (in the visualized sinuses) versus atelecatsis of the left maximillary sinus. So without asking for MY personal medical diagosis or advice, does this mean that they're saying they see the right side is smaller than the left side in this sinus? 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.

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?
