Fluoroseopy Fluoroscopy is a studdy of moving body strctures. It is an imaging technique that uses X-rays pass the body part to he esamined to obtain real time moving images of the internal structures of a patie the use of a fluoroscope. In its simplest form, a fluoroscope eonsists of an X-ray source and fluoew between which a patient is placed. It is most commonly used to view the upper Gl tract (stomach, cduodenum, the lower GI tract. Modern huoroscopes...

Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG), incorporating the positron emitter fluorine-18, is a commonly used radioisotope in PET scans. Which of the following statements about PET scans is correct? Select one: a. FDG is an analogue of glucose, so areas of low activity in a PET scan indicate areas of high glucose metabolism b. FDG in solution is injected into vascular system, so areas of high activity in a PET scan indicate areas of high vascularization c. FDG is metabolized by tumour cells more...

Cincinnati Children's Hospital had used six single-detector CT units to serve patients. The CT scans were useful for diagnosis of medical diseases through the body. In 2014 these units had been used for multiple shifts throughout the day to scan about 55,00 patients. The components of the process included patient preparation, the actual scan, and image reconstruction. One nurse and one CT technologist were required to carry out the tasks for each scan. (This is staffing need for operating each...
