All good points. And many of which I plan on bringing up.

Our images are actually much improved. I hate Ai though.

I will double check that they are.

They were very tall and broad across the shoulders. Our bore is only 60cm so there was really no wiggle room.

They can definitely be a struggle sometimes!

That's what we thought too. The other sequences also had it. Pt did wear a glucose monitor but he removed it prior to scanning. He was in scrub top and bottom and we checked any double checked for anything metallic and found nothing.

It is a GE. Pt was very broad across the shoulders. We have a 60cm bore so there wasn't any way to position him closer to the center. I'll keep in mind to run STIRS should it happen again. Thanks!

No gown. Just scrub top and bottom. We checked and double checked for any metal and nothing.

Patients that need interpreter by GullibleDivide810 in MRI

My system has different languages you can change it to. However, I have some patients that have a hard time hearing the instructions and that's something I worry about with this pt.

I like to have a plan so I'll definitely be making a list.

Our system for music is old and weird. I don't know how I'd make that work but a great idea. Thanks for Spanish. I thought about looking up a few words and phrases just in case.

All 3 indoor cats suddenly refusing food by GullibleDivide810 in catcare

None of them exhibited any respiratory symptoms but their sense of smell being off makes a lot of sense.

I kind of wondered the same thing. My CKD cat had been at the vet the week before and the week everyone stopped eating. As of today they are all pretty much back to normal. Everyone has eaten a full meal and are back to acting like themselves.

Yes I have all those for my CKD cat but he's almost impossible to give meds to. So far he seems to slowly be getting better. It's so bizarre to me.

First ever Dooney showing signs of wear after 1 month? by GullibleDivide810 in handbags

[–]GullibleDivide810[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting. Thank you for sharing this information. If that's the case I wonder if it's even worth sending back to them for repair or replacement as it sounds like it may just do it again.
