We inject patients with IV contrast. It's very sticky, and though appears clear in the injector, when exposed to air, becomes flaky and whiteish tinted much like syrup. And now for my story of the day... All the patients today had some underlying penile issue. 2 were hung like Mandingo, one had a penile implant, and to top it off, a penile discharge. So. We scanned them. At the end of the day, as I ceremoniously tossed the injector head which stores the IV contrast into the garbage 3 ft away, it hit the rim and splashed me across the face. At this, the Xray Student, B-Ri exclaimed, "MONEY SHOT!" There yah go. From the token female Technologist. Splashed in the face, with a flaky, body temperature liquid that dries with a whiteish tint. Lovely day indeedy doo. COULOW. Out.

WOW!!!!!! this reminds me of when i worked at an art gallery, one of my boss' elderly friends would come over and visit. one day, after the man had left, my boss revealed to me that this old guy had an implanted penile pump. he'd push a button and Junior would stand at attention...if you know what i mean!

I had another discectomy (sp) in the lower lumbar yesterday morning. Home now but I must say, My hat is off to the folks that do what you do. Although I consider myself a model patient, I've witnessed the ungrateful pricks (ha, see what I did there) that you people have to deal with and it takes a special type to deal with that. The folks at Suburban Hospital in D.C. are amazing btw.
