the radiologic technologists are performs imaging of the human body for diagnosis or treating medical problems. It desires the knowledge of education in anatomy‚ specialties with patient history and finding to transform picture into diagnose. Radiologic technologists perform diagnostic imaging examination. They perform imaging examinations such as x-rays‚ while technologists use other imaging modalities such as computed tomography‚ magnetic resonance imaging‚ and mammography. Radiologic technicians

Many recent imaging modalities in medicine‚ such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)‚ computed tomography (CT)‚ digital mammography also generate images directly in digital form. Diagnostic imaging is an invaluable tool in medicine today. These imaging modalities provide an effective means for non-invasive mapping of the anatomy of a subject. These technologies have greatly increased

York State back in the summer of 2001. There had been a series of tests that had been administered to Michael due to a benign tumor that was found in his brain after he suffered a fall that caused a head injury. Michael Colombini underwent a routine imaging procedure that was performed at Westchester Medical Center; where earlier in the week Michael underwent brain surgery to remove the benign tumor that was found in his brain. The scheduled MRI was considered a routine post-operative procedure to find

MRI Background info Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) otherwise known as Magnetic resonance tomography (1) is a scan that uses a magnetic field‚ radio wave‚ and computer‚ to produce an image of an individual internal structure (Anatomy) (2). The body contains more than 50% of water. MRI uses super strong Magnetic field to align hydrogen nuclei or protons found in water (H2O) all over the body (1‚3‚ &‚ 4). When a person is placed into the scanning machine hydrogen nuclei or protons align

MRI for a patient can be challenging. This is because equipment is expensive‚ and image acquisition and interpretation are both time-consuming. Thus‚ it is relatively unavailable for acute imaging. However‚ as previously discussed‚ MRI is optimal in the acute setting. Magnetic resonance imaging of TBI in the subacute time frame can greatly assist in optimal patient management. Early comparative studies showed that brain CT failed to detect 10 to 20% of brain abnormalities visualized
