Raad Almandil Professor L. Lykins ENGL 111-57C Due Date: 2/21/2013 Radiologists Radiology is connected to virtually all areas of medicine. Many people often enter the field of radiology because they have different sorts of interest in the job. The field of radiology was originally oriented on using X-ray radiation imagining of the body. Current radiology is not limited to X-rays; it also uses magnetic field‚ radiation and sound waves. Radiology can be used both for diagnostic

Microcephaly Microcephaly is a rare disease that is noticeable immediately at birth‚ and in some cases it is noticeable before birth. Microcephaly also is a rare‚ neurological disorder in which the circumference of a child’s head is smaller than other children for the age and gender of the infant or child. With microcephaly‚ the brain is not able to develop properly‚ or in some cases does not grow at all‚ this all happens when the baby is in the womb. Microcephaly also makes the head smaller than

CONTRAST MEDIA IN CHILDREN Principles regarding contrast media utilization and associated adverse events are generally similar between children and adults. This section will address specific areas in which pediatric use of contrast material differs from adult use and attempt to avoid repeating recommendations that are similar for both patient populations. contrast media. As viscosity increases‚ the pressure associated with IV contrast medium injection increases. This physical property is especially

CT Scan Machine CT scan machine (Computed Tomography) is a medical imaging method employing tomography by using a digital geometry process to generated a three-dimensional image of the internals of an object from a large series of two-dimensional X-ray images taken around a single axis of rotation. Computed Tomography (CT)‚ actually known as computed axial tomography (CAT or CT scan) and body section roentgenography. CT scan machine is useful equipment (an important tool in medical imaging to

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Computed Tomography Scan (CT) Modern medical technology allows physicians to capture detailed images of the body for diagnosing and treatment planning of various health issues. Radiologists use imaging technologies to diagnose or treat diseases. Interventional radiology is the performance of medical procedures with the guidance of imaging technologies. Acquisition of medical imaging is usually performed by a radiologic technologist and the results are interpreted

1.0 INTRODUCTION The basic idea of the Multi-slice Computed Tomography (MSCT) is to widen the x-ray source with several detectors in rows so that the data can be gathered of more than a slice a time thus reduces the time of scanning. From the first establishment till this day‚ the MSCT systems had change in so many aspects. The advancements of the systems are to fulfill the medical needs and had brings a lot of convenience to the clinical fields. By producing the 3D image‚ the MSCT give a great

Diagnostic Imaging: X-Ray Diagnostic Imaging is medical tools used by doctors to see inside our bodies without actually opening the body. Diagnostic imaging can involve the use of radiation which could be dangerous if exposed to large amounts of. Diagnostic imaging allows doctors to find tumors‚ broken bones‚ pneumonia‚ etc. In general‚ diagnostic imaging is very helpful. X-Rays: This was one of the first types of diagnostic imaging. It uses radiation called Electromagnetic Waves. These
