Upright CT examinations performed in the standing (a)and sitting (b)positions. The upright CT system features up-and-down movement of a transverse 320-detector-row gantry. For enhanced safety during upright sca
The medical information is sent to the healthcare provider through a secure platform, such as telemedicine software. The healthcare provider can review the information and provide a diagnosis or treatment recommendations. This asynchronous method is widely used in dermatology, radiology, and pathology...
Medical subject headings (MeSH) and keywords (for example –‘uterine artery embolisation’ and ‘fertility’) were utilised with searches performed in turn using each database. The reference list of relevant papers was also reviewed for additional studies. Our Pubmed search strategy is included in...
If success- ful, these methods may prove useful for enriching subject selection for primary prevention trials. Cognitive data from the ADCS MCI trial, when compared with results from a parallel cohort of normal elderly, suggest patterns of cognitive decline that differentiates nor- mal elderly from...
MRI contrast is invaluable when imaging tumors in major body organs like your brain or in your central nervous system. MRI dye can help doctors detect the tumors, identify if they’re malignant or benign and determine the growth stage they are in. ...
“DBT is a more advanced form of mammography where multiple mammographic images are taken in an arch around the breast and then reconstructed into a 3D image,” Dr. Long Trinh, a radiologist and chief of breast imaging with Santa Clara Valley Medical Center’s department of radiology. ...
Other topics like the level of percutaneous drain placement are still subject to controversy. First, the main topic that has been thoroughly discussed is whether to drain not only FLR but also the biliary tree within the future resected liver. Regarding the side of biliary drainage, a growing ...
Mansfield invented 'slice selection' for MRI, the method by which a localised axial slice of a subject can be selectively imaged, rather than the entire subject. His understanding of how the radio signals from MRI can be mathematically analysed enabled interpretation of the signals into a useful...
Both ionic and nonionic contrast media are useful in radiology because they are relatively harmless agents that are highly soluble. The key difference between ionic and nonionic contrast media is that ionic contrast media can dissolve into charged particles when entering a solution, whereas nonionic co...
