Radiography

This has given me the opportunity to shadow a radiographer. This gave me an insight into how radiography is an important area in medicine. As a radiographer it is important to be a great team player as well as being well organised. I feel that I am a great team player which I have shown whilst working on the ward with several nurses and doctors to…

The most common disease also referred to as common joint disease (OA) is what occurs when one or more synovial joints fail. This failure of the joint causes the top layer of cartilage to break down and the affected bones slowly become bigger. Aside from this joint breakdown and bone growth, cartilage wearing causes rubbing to occur which then leads to sharp pain. This disease affects 80% of people over the age of 75 and it is highly prevalent among those over 60. Women experience OA more than…

Choice “C” is the best answer. This patient has findings characteristic of porcelain gallbladder, brought on by recurrent gallstone formation and gallbladder wall irritation (i.e. chronic cholecystitis). As with gallstone disease in general, this condition occurs predominantly in overweight fertile female patients of middle age. It is a complication of chronic cholecystitis identified by imaging. Inflammatory scarring of the wall, combined with dystrophic calcification within the wall…

Us, 2016). She arrived to the United States 1965, because she got an invitation from Stanford Medical Center, to open the department of ultrasound (About Us, 2016). She concentrated her education in radiography and studied at the Liverpool University from 1956 – 1958. After graduating from radiography, she had the opportunity to work at the St Mary's Hospital located in Paddington, London. She performed invasive x-ray (Baker, 2016). In 1961, she was under the supervision of James Bull, MD. Her…

Vermeer’s increased attention to line and size is similarly evident in Woman in Blue Reading a Letter. This painting depicts a young woman entranced by a letter, presumably from her lover. She wears a blue coat and stands beside a table. A chair is pulled out from the table; perhaps it is the woman’s seat. Behind her, a large map of the Netherlands hangs on the wall. Interestingly, the map is based on a known map and also appears in Vermeer’s painting, Officer and Laughing Girl. Despite the…

A recent test on BUN and creatinine level also was high. She is currently on a medication. Condition of patient Based on the sign and symptoms that be mention erlier this patient…

Protection All health physics activities in radiology are designed to minimize the radiation exposure of patients and personnel. The three cardinal principles are effective in reducing radiation exposure in diagnostic radiology. Minimize Time During radiography, the…

bone marrow of long bones is typically targeted in children because yellow bone marrow replaces red bone marrow in adults (Bires, Kerr, & George, 2015). Adults usually are introduced to foreign organisms directly through trauma or surgery. Plain radiography, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), nuclear medicine, and ultrasound all have a role in the diagnosis osteomyelitis. Plain radiographs initially show soft tissue changes, muscle swelling, and blurring of soft tissue…

X-radiations (X-rays) are electromagnetic radiation that is utilised in performing radiographs; radiography is an imaging technique that utilises X-rays to generate a view of the internal anatomy of an individual (National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering 2017). The use of dental X-rays play a fundamental part in every dental clinic in terms of assisting dental professionals in diagnosing a condition, aiding in highlighting and providing early intervention for various dental…
