Radiology is a medical specialty that employs the use of imaging to both diagnose and treat disease visualized within the human body. Radiologists use an array of imaging technologies (such as x-ray radiography‚ ultrasound‚ computed tomography (CT)‚ nuclear medicine‚ positron emission tomography (PET) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)) to diagnose or treat diseases. Interventional radiology is the performance of‚ usually minimally invasive‚ medical procedures with the guidance of imaging technologies

chemical fluctuations that would disrupt neuron function. Waste and excess of CSF would be transport into the venous circulation‚ where they would be filtered into the blood or secreted in urine. The Cerebral Spinal Fluid is formed by the choroid plexus in each ventricle. The choroid plexuses are formed by the fusion of the pia mater‚ the most internal layer of the meninges and the ependyma‚ the lining of the ventricles. It circulates through and eventually leaves the ventricles and enters the subarachnoid

Chapter 16 Notes The heart lies in the mediastinum and is surrounded by a doubled layered membrane called the pericardium. The outer most layer of the pericardium is called the fibrous pericardium‚ which anchors the heart to surrounding structures. The inner layer is called the serous pericardium and is composed of two layers. The outer portion is called the parietal pericardium‚ the inner portion is called the visceral pericardium (epicardium). Epicardium- outer most layer of the heart wall
