CHAPTER ONE 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background of the Study Ultrasonography is an excellent modality for examining abdominal structures including the location and dimensions of canine kidneys (Remichi et al., 2014). It involves a non-invasive procedure for examination of kidney diseases (Sampaio and Araujo, 2002) and offers advantages over radiography as there are no side effects of radiation and contrast agents (Nyland et al., 1995). Canine kidneys are located in the retroperitoneal region of the…

Elastography is a medical imaging modality that maps the elastic properties of soft tissue. The focus is whether the tissue is hard or soft and will give diagnostic information about the presence or status of a disease. It is concerned with providing images that are related to the stiffness of the tissue. This paper will discuss about elastography and the different types as well as, the principles and components involved with elastography. Peter R. Hoskins a Caucasian, male from United Kingdom…

story by mentioning other elements that changed when expose to extreme temperatures, ending the chapter with a discussion on yttrium (Y) and neodymium (Nd). In the seventeenth chapter, starts with Donald Glaser, the drunk who was interested in bubbles. Surprisingly, Glaser won a Noble Prize at the age of Thirty-three after he switched his research from bubbles in beer to bubbles in liquid nitrogen (N2). Kean also mentions Ernest Rutherford, who was interested in radioactivity. Rutherford mimic…

Alternative Imaging for MRI in MS MRI is a great tool for medical imaging and widely used for Multiple Sclerosis (MS), but it has some limitations in lacking specificity1. New emerging techniques such as transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) have the potential to address issues not resolved by current MRI techniques. TMS is a non-invasive technique used for monitoring the central nervous system (CNS) activity and response in a pain-tolerated manner. It…

Radiology should be used in dentistry because it is needed to find hidden structures. According to the article “Dental X-Rays”, the American Dental Association makes it clear, “ … x-ray pictures can show cavities, hidden dental structures (such as wisdom teeth), and bone loss that cannot be seen during a visual examination” (par. 1). In other words, the American Dental Association implies that during a visual examination a dentist or dental assistant is not able to see hidden structures in the…

A bat wing on a x-ray refers to a pattern that shows bilateral perihilar shadowing or consolidation. This happens when pulmonary pressures are high normally and these shadows can be caused by pulmonary edema, pneumonia, inhalation injury or leukemia (Bell,2017). Kerley B lines on an X-ray are a horizontal line that is less than two centimeters long, normally are seen in the lower periphery and are parallel to other ones at the right angles of the pleura. Most frequently they are seen from the PA…

My loving mother, ever since my early childhood has imbibed the importance of transcendence in me. She used to say, ‘Whatever you do, always aim to achieve excellence in it.’ And I have been following it since then. I started rising and shining in school grades, sports, music and various competitions in school. I also got unique opportunities to represent my school in various elocution and academic contests at state & regional levels. This hard work and strive for supremacy honored me with…

Past: The Golgi-Apparatus was first discovered by the Italian physician, after which it was named, Camillo Golgi in the year 1897 (but only reported the discovery in 1898), and it appeared in scientific literature for the first time in 1910, but its existence was only proved later in the year 1954 with the help of electron-microscopic studies. Camillo Golgi was able to identify this organelle by using a special staining technique, which he called ‘Black Reaction’, which made it possible to…

Pharmacy technician and pharmacist are work closely together. They are deliver medication, advice and assistance to their patient. Pharmacist relies on pharmacy Technician for many things. They kind of like one bodies that need and can't missing each others. And pharmacy technician do not require for any education beyond high school. But pharmacist need to go to school to get a bachelor degree, 4 years college education, 2 years of Pre-pharmacy and one year of internship. And also they have to…

Ultrasound has been used for many years to help diagnosis. Ultrasound describes sound frequencies beyond the range of normal human hearing and 20 kilohertz. Ultrasound uses focused low-energy ultrasound waves to visualize the interior of the body in a noninvasive and painless way. Many people are to thanks for the evolution of ultrasound. Dating back to the 1700’s. Lazzaro Spallanzani in 1793 observed that bats function efficiently in the dark, even when blinded, but not if deafened. He…
