Residency What was your Medical Physics residency like?

9 Upvotes

I completed CAMPEP accredited residency in 2018 in the Midwest. I worked 60-70 hrs/week (probably more if I actually add up the hours). There is a 10 year age gap between new residents and when I was a resident.

Grad School Job shadowing- dosimetry

2 Upvotes

Hi, how are people who want to go in to dosimetry supposed to gain shadowing opportunities when everyone works remotely? Most programs require 40hours of shadowing yet not only is it impossible to track anyone down, once you do they all work remotely and can’t allow you to gain any shadowing hours.

Edit: I’m in Utah, was able to find one person to shadow so far but her hospital limits it to only 3 days or 12hours. She gave me contacts for two other people but I am not sure if they will be able to have me shadow them.

Does anyone have a good reference for images of grid artifacts?

I'm thinking grid misaligned, bucky not moving, plate inverted or flipped, and etc?
