What can a SPECT CT see?

Hi - layperson here. I was treated with radioactive iodine about 9 mos ago and as part of that treatment, had a whole body scan AND a spect Ct of most of my body (not brain or legs). I understand the mechanism, but curious if a SPECT CT would have shown other things also? I never got the full report - just a summary saying ‘your thyroid cancer was not found elsewhere’ - so curious if it ‘sees’ other things as well?

Do rad techs/sonographers deal with vomit often?

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/
