[ RadSafe ] RE: Medical Radiological Technician Oversight

[Jose Julio Rozental]

Dear Franz,

Another point unbelievable to understand was "The tech refused to
allow me (or anyone else) to be in the room with the child while the
x-ray was taken. The kid was hurt, scared, and in a place (and alone)
that he had never been before."

I can't understand this in developing countries, how to accept this
situation and decision by a tech in USA?
