Radiography Jokes

Random stuff I found~

You know you're a Radiographer when...

• You wash your hands before you go to the bathroom
• You've ever had a patient with a nose ring, brow ring and 12 earrings say, "I'm afraid of needles!"
• You have to leave the patient's room before you begin to laugh uncontrollably
• You believe a roll of tape can fix any problem
• You know beauty is not only skin deep....great trabeculation, nice odontoid!
• The question of the day is to B.E. or not to B.E.
• You know that a hard beam tight collimation equals adequate penetration
• You know what "pop the film" means
• You have more white cardboard than you need
• You give somebody a hug, and feel for their iliac crest
• You make comments like "the costophrenic angles are not showing when chest x-rays are shown on tv or movies.
• When you watch ER, Nip Tuck, Scrubs, Etc. you look at the viewing box in the room and know that the PA CXR is hanging upside down, along with the lateral c-spine, and the patient is in the ER because she is having a baby.Then if you say to yourself and everyone in the room, who don't care because they aren’t in the medical field, those x-rays aren’t hanging right, and that is a major HIPAA violation!!!
• You know the answer to: "But my left side does not hurt, just the right side of my chest hurts, why are you taking a picture of the left?"
