When assessing the cranial nerves using a screening neurologic examination, the nurse should assess visual fields and fundoscopic examination, pupillary light reflex, eye movements, hearing, and facial strength. Finger proprioception would be a part of the sensory system assessment. While performing a...
Now that it is possible to combine PET and MRI in the same imaging session, the relative strengths of each individual technology can be brought to bear on the clinical questions, with the benefits of simultaneous acquisition and a minimum of patient inconvenience. For example, high-resolution ...
