radiology Flashcards
things to consider with regards to the safety of imaging
location- barium enema
amt of radiation
timing of exposure
mGy
micrograys
10mGy= 1 ray
the amt of radiation it takes for a tissue to absorb one jule
growth restriction and skeletal anomalies occur at
200 mGy
2-8 weeks after conception
radiation may increase the risk of what type of mutations
natural
NOT de novo
before implantation effects
all or nothing
50-100mGy or more
during organogenesis
2-8 weeks
see congenital anomalies >200mgy
growth restriction>250
during fetal perion
8-15 weeks
see severe intellectual disability (60-310)
intellectual deficit is 25 IQ points for every 1000mGy
microcephaly 200 mgy
CXR radiation dose
.01mGY
CT .66mGY
abdominal CT 1.3-35 `
pelvic CT 10-50 mGY
spiral CT over VQ
MRI contrast gadolinium is associated with what negative outcome
nephrogenic systemic fibrosis
especially in free form
what is the error of uL
9 WEEKS: 5d
9-just 16 weeks: 7 days
16-22: 14 days
28-term: 21 days
multiple c sections put you at risk for
placenta accreta
placenta previa
CVS done at
10-13 weeks
biopsy of placental tissue
causes of polyhydramnios
dm
upper GI obstruction
chromosomal abnormalities
muscular lesion affection swallowing
1st trimester ULS is for
confirming viability and dates
diagnosing multi pregnancies
r/o ectopic or molar
removing IUD
NT and CVS
2nd trimester ULS is for
screening for fetal anomalies
amnio
assessing gestational
placental localization and evaluation co
components to 2nd trimester uLS
Gest age and fetal growth
fetal position, number, and natomy
placenta location
amniotic fluid level
uterine eval
cervical eval >2.5
if less than 2cm worry about funneling
if cervical funneling is suspected
can do cerclage if >22weeks
hourglassing suggest incompetent cervix (when membrane in below vagina)
nml AFI
5-20CM
Polyhydramnios
AFO>20
causes of polyhydramnios
DM
duodenal atresia (double bubble)
absence of stomach bubble on TEE fistula
also with chromosomal abnormalities
and muscular lesion affecting swalloing
olighydramnios
AFI<5
absent fetal renal tissue or lower urinary tract obstruction
also Potter syndrome (sever polycystic kidney disease in fetus)
IGUR
maternal dehydration
fetal amniotic survey includes
CNS Cardiopulm GU MSK Umbilical cord fetal exterior
normal cerebral centricls
<10mm
what GU assessments can you do in a level II ULS
kidney and bladder
not ureters or urthera
can see hypospadias
autosomal recessive polcystic kidney dz
