Medical ultrasound

Radiologist is a medical doctor (MD) or doctors of osteopathic medicine (DOs) who specialize in using medical imaging techniques that help diagnose and treat diseases and injuries. The medical imaging that they use would be x-rays, CTs,…

than 90% of women considering an abortion choose life for their babies after having an ultrasound. –Former abortionist Dr. Bernard Nathanson. I am most interested in pursuing a career in the medical imagery field as a sonographer, also known as ultrasound technician because it is interactive, has a broad variety of job duties, and has excellent benefits and job outlook. Someone who wants to become an ultrasound technician can choose from as many as four routes to get there. The first route, a…

this paper I will be discussing how Medical Imaging uses wave behavior, why it is needed, and how it captures information and energy. I will also be explaining the differences between the types of Medical Imaging and how the MRI Scan is used in the medical field today. Understanding Medical Imaging Medical Imaging has several different technologies that are used to view the human body. There are different types of Medical Imaging such as MRI, X-ray, CT, ultrasound, mammography, molecular…

CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background of study An ultrasound test uses high-frequency sound waves to create images of internal body organs. Imaging tests can identify abnormalities and helps in diagnosing conditions. A Transvaginal sonography/scan (TVS) is a type of pelvic ultrasound used to examine female reproductive organs. This includes the uterus, fallopian tubes, ovaries, cervix, and vagina. “Transvaginal” means “through the vagina.” This is an internal (or intracavitary) examination.…

Medical image analysis plays a vital role in medical diagnosis is a broad area of education and research attention. Medical imaging techniques become a nature look with different characteristics depend upon the selection of modalities with the requirements ( Li Luo 2007). For example, CT offer supreme information on denser tissue with smaller amount distortion whereas Magnetic Resonance Image (MRI) offer superior information on soft tissue with supplementary distortion (Yong Yang et.al. 2010)…

Many different modalities are used in interventional imaging such as: computed tomography, fluoroscopy, magnetic resonance, and ultrasound (Farrell, p. 375, 2014). With the advances in imaging technology, interventional radiology (IR) is a quickly growing, and becoming a popular advanced specialty. IR is a form of minimally invasive imaging that is used to assist in procedures. Interventional radiology can be used to treat as well as diagnose disease. There are many types of disease that can…

Advancement of medical imaging modalities, such as ultrasound, has significantly helped researchers and health professionals visualise dimensional and morphologic changes within the tendon, such as may occur with overuse injuries amongst athletes. Both Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and ultrasound have unique benefits and limitations. MRI may be better suited where there is a need for a differential diagnosis while ultrasound can be used to demonstrate active and passive movements in real…

"Radiology" is a very prevalent concept in the medical terms, but something unpredictable for the common person. In general terms, it is a process that is used to diagnose a specific disease. Usually, this technique includes the imaging process to detect and then treat according to the specific disease. In the reference of the medical theory, the radiology is a field that interprets and medicates the diseases utilizing the imaging technologies, such as X-ray, ultrasound, MRI (magnetic resonance…

“Chad, on ultrasound there are four things that we look for in cancer and you are four for four. To be honest, it looks pretty extensive. As the research radiologist I can’t make any referrals, so please get in to see your primary care doctor as soon as possible.” My pre-clinical years of medical school were a defining moment in my life and career as a future physician. Late into my first year, I volunteered for a campus research project which included a thyroid ultrasound – a serendipitous…
