PRELIM Flashcards
In angiography the BLANK is most often used for arterial access.
common femoral artery
The idea of subtraction images was first proposed by the BLANK when he was able to produce subtracted images using plain films.
Dutch radiologist Ziedses des Plantes in the 1935
The control room should be large, perhaps
100 ft^2.
Large steel container.
* Inside the container are arranged a no. of strong wire separators.
* 30 sheets of film.
LOADING MAGZINE
allows the radiologist to position the catheter within the vascular network.
guidewire
Vessels under investigation in angiography are injected with
radiopaque contrast media.
Can change films –6/s or 1/5s
THE AOT CHANGER:
catheter diameter is categorized in
French (Fr) sizes, with 3 Fr equaling 1 mm in diameter.
The procedure room itself should not be less than
20 ft. along any wall
and not less than 500 ft^2.
The imperfection can be corrected with second-order subtraction, which is developed by
Hanafee and Shinno
The x-ray tube used for IR procedures has a
small target angle, a large- diameter massive anode disc, and cathodes designed for magnification and serial radiography.

Lid is a sliding section in a side which can be pushed down by firm finger pressure and is retained by central spring loaded catch.
RECEIVING CASSETTE:
In the early 1960s, BLANK pioneered transbrachial selective coronary angiography.

has an angled tip joined to a gentle curve and is used for introduction into celiac, renal, and mesenteric arteries.
The C2 or Cobra catheter
“DSA” means
“Digital Subtraction Angiography”
In the early 1960s, BLANK pioneered transbrachial selective coronary angiography.
Mason Jones
matching one image over another so that bony landmarks are precisely superimposed.
Registration
is the radiological study of blood vessel in the
body after the introduction of iodinated contrast media.
angiography
It is simply a technique by which bone structures images are subtracted or canceled out from a film of bones plus opacified vessels, leaving an unobscured image of the vessels.
SUBTRACTION?
is highly curved for approach to sharply angled vessels.
The Simmons catheter
Shallow, polished metal container.
RECEIVING CASSETTE:
In 1953 BLANK described a method of arterial access in which a catheter was used.
Sven Ivar Seldinger
After the procedure has been performed, when the catheter is removed, the femoral puncture site must be
manually compressed.
introduced visceral angiography
