Sites of filtration, diffusion and secretion. Not found in areas of mechanical stress
Lines cardiovascular and lymphatic system (endothelium)
Serous membranes such as peritoneum, pluera and pericardium (mesothelium)
Air sacs of lungs, Bowman’s capsule of kidneys, inner surface of tympanic membrane

176
Q

Simple cuboidal epithelium

A

Secretion and absorption
Surface of ovary, anterior surface of capsule of lens of eye, pigmented epithelium at posterior surface of retina, lines kidney tubules and smalls ducts, secretory portion of glands like thyroid and ducts like pancreas

177
Q

Nonciliated simple columnar epithelium

184
Q

Transitional Epithelium

Lines urinary bladder and portions of ureters and urethra

185
Q

Radiography/X-rays

A

Single barrage of x-rays passes through body producing an image of interior structures on x-ray sensitive film
Relatively inexpensive, quick and simple to perform
X-rays do not easily pass through dense structures so bones appear white.
Mammography and bone densitometry

186
Q

CT/CAT Scan

A

Computer-assisted radiography in which an x-ray traces an arc at multiple angles around a section of the body
Gives transverse sections
Bone injuries
Screening for lung cancers, coronary artery disease and kidney cancers.

187
Q

MRI

A

Body is exposed to high-energy magnetic field which causes protons in body fluids and tissues to arrange themselves in relation to the field. Pulse of radiowaves reads these ion patterns and a color coded image in assembled on a video monitor
Relatively safe, but cannot be used on patients with metal in their bodies
Shows fine details for soft tissues but not bone
Detect tumors, artery-clogging fatty plaques, reveal brain abnormalities, measure blood flow, and detect variety of musculo-skeletal, liver and kidney disorders

188
Q

PET

A

Substance that emits positrons is injected into body where is it taken up by tissues. Collision of positrons with electrons produces gamma rays that are detected by cameras. Computer receives signals and constructs color image.
Shows where injected substance is being used in body
Used to study physiology of body structures such as metabolism of brain or heart

189
Q

Ultrasonography

A
