@@Always-intentional coming from a nuclear tech myself, lab coats protect your bare skin from any possible spills and are actually mandatory in a hot lab. Lead aprons aren't exactly the best thing to wear in nuclear medicine (at least from this standpoint). You actually end up exposing yourself to more radiation. Lead aprons are useful for fluoroscopy and diagnostic x-rays because the x-ray radiation is generally weaker in comparison to gamma rays.
Why aren't the radiographers wearing gloves? ...hands, face, space. Also the radiographers behind the control panel in the DR room...touching their colleagues. Radiographers and other healthcare professionals in practice are hot on infection control in CoVID times. Nice video... But remember to also demonstrate radiographers following guidelines. Thanks
because wearing gloves in a clinical setting such as radiography tends to do more harm than good. People become complacent. Its much easier to wash hands and to use gloves on patients who are infectious. All patients should be sent with a clinical request form which tells us before theyre here if they are infectious. If not then we wash our hands after every patient and sanitise the surfaces. Taking resources away from wards that might actually come into contact with biohazardous materials is a silly idea
i think i want to be a radiologist after medical school i think it's a great job and suits my personal lifestyle thanks for the vedio
im a 4th y medical student im going to be a radiologist after i complete a clinical radiology residency soon i hope
@@toaka5568did u manage it?
Now I am a first year radigraphy student❤🌸
All the best
which college
@@kamatchis4405 thank you 😊🙏
Which college
Which place...?
@@kamatchis4405 I am from srilanka. I am doing my degree in a state University of my country 🙂
👌
In most countries around the world, radiographers do not do nuclear medicine. It requires a dedicated degree in nuclear medicine science.
I really want to do the MSc but it's incredibly difficult to get into
Amazing video
… Hi, when a patient messes on the machine, like peeing on the bed. Whose responsibility is it to clean it up.?
I wish to be a radio grapher
I am radiographer in nepal how to apply for a foreign country
Stay to your country, help your people
What type of scanning was shown before ct scanning?
General nuclear medicine scan
No lab coat when handling radioactive material?
Lab coat for what? You mean lead apron.

I am surprised at that also
Is this career good for health?
For your health?
@@indy8397 yeah people told me that radiographers have to face exposing radiation . that's why I asked this ?
@@imashalakshani4181 well they wear lead aprons and stand behind a protective screen so I think it's pretty safe
@@indy8397 thanks a lot dear I have been waiting for a long time to get answer. Thanks again ❤❤❤❤❤❤🥰🥰🥰🥰

If covid is that bad we should all be dead. Stfu
