(Frances Tse) There are many imaging modalities used to investigate in patient with suspected biliary abnormality such as transabdominal ultrasound‚ endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)‚ ERCP‚ CT‚ MRI or percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography (PTC). MRI has now been increasing use and can reduce the requirement of ERCP or PTC due to its accuracy for evaluation of most biliary condition.

MRI of the Knee Materials utilized for the procedure KC Hutchins The materials used in the MRI of the knee are surface coils‚ volume coils‚ knee positioning pads‚ sandbags‚ and Gadolinium‚ in the case of a Magnetic Resonance Angiogram. Firstly‚ in some cases‚ a surface coil is used. They are of the simplest design‚ a loop of conducting material. It is used as a transmitter of radiofrequency energy. This receiver coil is placed on the region of interest or the knee‚ in this example‚ for greater

Brain Imaging (CT and MRI) CT and MRI scans are popular methods to carry out brain imaging. CT scan is rather like an X-ray which is more detailed and built up into a 3D image. An MRI scan creates an extremely detailed picture of the patient’s body. Both scans are useful in diagnosis however the particular one carried out depends upon how severe the doctors

intentional scarring of the brain‚ and ablation - intentionally cutting out pieces of the brain. The brain imaging technologies that will be examined are electroencephalography (EEP)‚ functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI)‚ magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)‚ and positron emission tomography (PET). These brain imaging technologies are either functional or structural. Functional BIT’s are ones that are used to identify metabolic disease and lesions on a finer scale‚ while structural BIT’s are ones that
