August Experience and Winding Down

I can't believe that it is August already!
I'm starting to feel really comfortable doing some scans but others tend to get me. I just keep plugging away hoping that I break down those barriers that stop me. MRI's of the knee, lumbar spine and cervical spine are falling into place for me and now I'm starting to feel comfortable with MRI's of the ankle and wrist. With other scans, I think it is all the variables that trip me up for example, the foot, but with time I know everything will fall into place.
I did see an interesting case recently. A patient came in with a tibial plateau fracture and the doctor wanted to make sure that there were no meniscus or ACL tears. I could see the fracture through the localizer and I was amazed at how deep it went through the tibia. As we scanned the knee to look for the possible tears, we could see the different levels of fluid that were stacked on top each other. That was the first time that I could really see blood pooling around the knee. In the end, the radiologist determined that there were no tears.
This has been an awesome experience this semester and I can't wait to continue on with my journey next semester.
