Embolized venous fistulas using Onyx glue

Embolized venous fistulas using Onyx glue

These are my embolized venous fistulas at left T11 & T8. I’m still suffering symptoms of a csf leak, so there are likely more fistulas in my back, but I’m thankful to have had transvenous embolization as my treatment for these two. The doctor went in through a femoral vein up to the level of the fistulas where he then injected Onyx glue to occlude the vein. This treatment was only invented in 2020 by an interventional neuroradiologist at Mayo Clinic- prior to that, I would’ve had to have open back surgery to locate and seal off veins that were siphoning off my cerebrospinal fluid!

Do rad techs/sonographers deal with vomit often?

By
Hi there! I’m currently considering going to school to be a rad tech or sonographer but I’m struggling to find out if you guys deal with vomit a lot. I am emetophobic (phobia of vomit) and, while I think I’d like these jobs a lot, it does worry me to think about having to deal with it often. Thank you for your help! submitted by /u/pootscoot1 [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/p5y0aa/do_rad_techssonographers_deal_with_vomit_often/
