How is Aortography accomplished?

Back 3

place a catheter at the desired level of the aorta.

Looking at all abdominal arteries?

Back 5

Abdominal Aortography

Front 6

What are some abdominal aortography indications?

Back 6

aortic aneurysm, occlusion, or atherosclerotic disease.

Front 7

atherosclerotic?

Back 7

hardening

Front 8

These studies are performed to rule out atherosclerotic disease, thrombosis, embolization, occlusion, bleeding or to visualize tumor vascularity.

Celiac Artery carries blood to the stomach, liver, spleen, and pancreas.

Back 9

Celiac Arteriogram

Front 10

braches off the celiac artery, and supplies blood to the liver, stomach, duodenum and pancreas.

Back 10

Hepatic Arteriogram

Back 15

Renal Arteriogram

Front 16

rule out thrombus or occlusion of superior vena cava

Back 16

Superior vena cavagram

Front 17

rule out thrombus or existence of occlusion

Back 17

Performed to rule out thrombosis of the deep veins of the leg?

Back 21

Lower Leg Venogram

Front 22

indications of pulmonary arteriography?

Back 22

embolic disease

Front 23

right side of heart sends blood to where?

Back 23

pulmonary artery

Front 24

term used to denote radiologic examinations of the blood vessels of the brain.

Back 24

Cerebral Angiography

Front 25

What are the indications of Cerebral Aneurysm?

Back 25

Cerebral Aneurysms, vascular lesions, and demonstration of tumors by dis placement of blood vessels and tumor circulation

Front 26

What supplies the brain with blood?

Back 26

rt and lt common carotid arteries- anterior circulation

rt and lt vertebral arteries- posterior circulation

Front 27

the 3 branches of the aortic arch

Back 27

1. brachiocephalic

2. left common carotid

3. left subclavian

Front 28

collateral circulation provided by anterior and posterior communicating arteries at the base of the brain.

Back 28

Circle of Willis

Front 29

phases of filming program in cerebral angiography?

Back 29

arterial, capillary, venous

Front 30

Performed to visualize atherosclerosis or occlusive disease of carotid, vertebral, or subclavian arteries.

Back 30

Aortic Arch Angiogram

Front 31

How does interventional radiology differ from other?

Back 31

it is therapeutic rather than diagnostic

Front 32

What types of situations is interventional radiology used?

Back 32

open up stenotic or occluded arteries
Embolization of arteries
Drainage of a kidney that has blockage
Removal of stones with catheters
trap an embolus of lower leg
Reduce portal hypertension

Front 33

What types of situations would you use interventional radiology dealing with embolization of arteries?

Back 33

stop active bleeding sites
end blood flow to a tumor
stop or reduce blood flow to and area of the body

Front 34

Why do you trap an embolus in the lower leg?

Back 34

so it does not reach the pulmonary arteries

Front 35

sac formed by local enlargement of a weakened vessel wall.

Back 35

Aneurysm

Front 36

condition in which fatty deposits on the luminal wall or an artery may cause obstruction of that artery.

Back 36

Atherosclerosis

Front 37

cramping of leg muscles after physcial exertion because of chronically inadequate blood supply.

Back 37

Claudication

Front 38

foreign material, often thrombus that detaches and moves freely in the bloodstream

Back 38

Embolus
