C-Arm tips

By

Hey all, I’m back in the OR after a long hiatus due to my schedule. I’m looking for tips and advice on gaining confidence with using the C-Arm frequently.

I know that as I do OR continuously it will become more fluid and natural but, right now, I feel uncertain about it (I had 2 days of training and was thrown in full time). I’m trying my hardest and do my best to show confidence because floundering can be the kiss of death with certain docs. I do communicate with the providers when needed & an building a good rapport.

We use Siemens, 3 flat plates and 3 different rounds, case and doctor preference dependent. A different round for ERCP’s and bronch’s.

Any advice for centering, positioning, etc? I’m open to anything. Thank you!

Onetonline salary search change?

By
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

By
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? Thanks! submitted by /u/doomyboomy [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/oi2nmk/question_regarding_ultrasound/
