[Layman question] Life-long chain smoker with tuberculosis?

[Layman question] Life-long chain smoker with tuberculosis?

Greetings sub!

Sorry if silly question, I don't know where to ask. I'm a nurse working in countryside of 3rd world country and radiologists here are difficult to find.

The X-ray image annexed shows the chest of 58 years old black man, life-long chain smoker with severe Anemia, Thrombocytopenia and 20 mg/dl C-reactive protein. I think I'm seeing some poorly defined margins on right side, witch I understand as something related to tuberculosis. Cans someone give any insight?

Any help will be immensely appreciated.

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?
