I'm a CT tech and I know I would be fired in a heartbeat if I gave that much shit to somebody who wanted a CAT scan. That's a fact!

@magna428 I've had no problems with CT techs/radiographers. It's usually the radiology registrars (residents) who are the wall.  In some cases it's justified, as you don't want frivolous exposure to radiation if it doesn't change your clinical decision making process, but in some cases, you just feel obstructed.

I'm a radiologist and this is hilarious. Question, does "registrar" mean trainee (resident in US)? And does "consultant" mean supervising doc (attending in US)?

@jacksparrow1212

Yes, in Australia "registrar" means trainee in an accredited training program and "consultant" means attending. "Resident" here means a house officer after internship, but before being selected for a particular training program. Cheers, glad you liked it.

Feel bad for you if that's how it is where you work. CT is insensitive to locate a GI bleed, though. :P

[ph4tboy]

@bdunosk That may be true, but it is even more impossible to try to get a RBC scan or angiogram during the night, let alone a scope.

This is a radiologist with indian accent.

My mother is a Radiologist and she laughed so hard when she saw this

At our place if you come in breathing you are cleared for the CT table. Our Rad's agree to anything. These things anger me because no one has any "stones" to refuse to do a procedure anymore.

@ikilledfred Just because you're angry that you didn't get the residency you wanted because you went to school in Pakistan and is now an internist making peanuts doesn't mean you should go on youtube and lash out at everyone. Also, growing up without a father probably contributed to your rage, you should see someone about that, and your mother being a prostitute likely didn't help as well... Kill yourself and get it over with you mongoloid waste of space.

@JoEllen60 very true

@drunkchemist

You're an idiot. If you can't tell by the content of the rest of the posts here, everyone else here is a doctor. "As a person in the medical field" and by what you had to say, I'm guessing you must be a cna or medical student. Dumbass

yea theres no such thing as being given contrast as a test.. thats just stupid
