Pliura 1 Cole Pliura Parkland English 102 Major #2 3/12/14 CT vs. MRI Scans Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are both diagnostic tests that provide us with high-resolution pictures of any area of the body. Both tests use computers to construct pictures to view within the body. Both of these tests are non-invasive procedures designed to provide medical professionals with a better understanding of the patient’s condition. There are‚ however‚ inherent differences

scientific advance Cardiac MRI (Heart MRI) What Is a Heart MRI? A magnetic resonance imaging test (MRI) uses magnets and radio waves to capture images inside your body without making an surgical incision. An MRI allows your doctor to see the soft tissues in your body‚ along with your bones. An MRI can be performed on any part of your body. However‚ a heart or cardiac MRI looks specifically at your heart and the adjacent vessels. Unlike a CT scan(computed tomography)‚ an MRI does not use radiation

Do the risks of MRI outweigh the benefits? Even though MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) is considered the “safe modality” of imaging‚ the number of adverse events has only increased in clinical settings across the past decade. MRI is considered the safest imaging modality because it can produce the most information from a patient while not delivering any ionizing radiation‚ unlike x-rays‚ fluoroscopy‚ etc. New safety screening technologies and safety practices have much promise in reducing these

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a safe and painless test that uses a magnetic field and radio waves to produce detailed pictures of the body’s organs and structures. An MRI scanner is a large doughnut-shaped magnet that often has a tunnel in the center. They have larger openings and are helpful for patients with claustrophobia (a fear of being in tight‚ enclosed spaces). During the MRI exam‚ radio waves manipulate the magnetic position of the body’s atoms‚ which are picked up by a powerful antenna

Relevance to biology (PET Scan) Today‚ most PET scans are performed on instruments that are combined PET and CT scanners. The combined PET/CT scans provide images that pinpoint the location of abnormal metabolic activity within the body. The combined scans have been shown to provide more accurate diagnoses than the two scans performed separately. Nuclear medicine is a branch of medical imaging. It uses small amounts of radioactive material to diagnose and determine the severity of various types
