Glad to be back!!!!!!!!!

Well I probably should start out by introducing myself again to all the new students who joined clinicals this semester. I am Kathleen Jensen and I am a third shift weekend option x-ray tech at IU in Indianapolis. I graduated from IU Radiography in 2008 and am excited about getting my bachelors in CT/MRI from USI. I also am starting to get to do a little CT at work for our new stroke accredidation. I am able to do heads w/o and they are going to teach me the other basic exams. Maybe I will tackle CT certification after MR is finished.

I just finished my first week back in MR and was happy to be scanning again. I didn't get to do much due to the tech I usually am with is on vacation. However, I did get to see an exam that I had not observed before and I will hopefully get to see it again. The tech stated that we do not get to do these full exams very often. The exam was a full IAC and we usually do a sequence with heads for dizziness but don't see very many individual IAC exams ordered. It was very interesting and she pointed out all the anatomy through the whole scan. I still find it amazing how detailed MR pictures are. Post more later!!!!!!!
