DISCUSSION Lung Perfusion (Q) SPECT-CT which has a superior contrast resolution has been shown to be more sensitive‚ specific and accurate with a lower non-diagnostic rate than lung perfusion (Q) planar and SPECT imaging in the diagnosis and to detect pulmonary embolism (PE). This study found that lung perfusion (Q) Planar‚ SPECT and SPECT-CT have a similar performance in terms of specificity (100%)‚ positive predictive value (100%) with the Computed Tomography Pulmonary Angiogram (CTPA) as the

with Decreased Lung Compliance In the healthcare setting many clinicians are curious to know how airway pressure release ventilation (APRV) works. Many modes of ventilation have been developed throughout the years that focus on lung recruitment and allows for patients to breathe at a spontaneous rate. However‚ APRV is one of the many modes that concentrate on providing partial ventilatory assistance to patients with some form of respiratory failure. First‚ can APRV protect the lungs and reduce the

is caused when the main air passages to the lungs become inflated. This respiratory disorder may be a short-lived disorder‚ or in some cases a long-lived‚ chronic‚ disorder. In most cases‚ short-lived‚ or acute Bronchitis follows a viral respiratory infection of some kind‚ and usually will go away on its own within a week. The order in which this disorder spreads through your body is as follows‚ your nose‚ sinuses‚ throat‚ and then spreads to the lungs. In other cases‚ there is a possibility you

In part A of the experiment the two values obtained for the specific heat capacity of the metal were about .0500 J/mol. This is a large deviation‚ with both of these values identifying very different metals. The average heat capacity identified the metal used as brass. The average heat capacity calculated was .3776 J/mol and the actual heat capacity of brass is .375 J/mol. The second run displayed the closest value to the actual value. A source of error that may have caused a large divide in the

Measuring Human Reaction Time Name: Prerna Mohan Date: November 3‚ 2017 Team members: Allison Fitzgerald‚ Isabella Federico 1. Objectives The objective of this lab is to measure each individual’s reaction time using a ruler. 2. Method and Equation: We will apply free fall kinematics to find our own reaction time. An object in free fall is an object in motion where gravity is the sole force acting upon it. If we drop an object from a certain distance‚ the object will experience constant

TECH0701: Measuring the Melting Points of Compounds and Mixtures Introduction This exercise dealt with the melting points of pure mandelic acid and benzoic acid. The eutectic temperature and composition of mandelic and benzoic acid mixtures were determined. And finally‚ an unknown was identified by its mixtures and melting point. The melting point of a compound is used by organic chemists not only to identify the compound‚ but also to establish its purity. To determine the melting point two
