If you see something alarming, how would you react in front of the patient who most likely has not noticed?

"I would calmly tell the patient to give me a moment. I would then ask one of my coworkers for a second opinion if I was unsure of what I saw. However, if I see something concerning on a scan, it is usually the job of the RN or the physician to talk to the patient directly."

"I know this job entails showing results that are not pleasant to patients at times. To maintain a professional image with the patient, I would remain calm and quiet and let them know that I need to send the images to the radiologist for interpretation and that they would let the patient know what the results were."

"This situation would depend on what was found that was alarming. If an image showed something medically concerning, I would stay focused on my job in obtaining the best possible images for the radiologist and let the patient know what I was doing. Following the scan, I would let them know the process for the physician to receive the results and the follow-up they would be providing."
