Surgical And Diogostic Procedures

Question 1

Magnetic resonance imaging

Answer 1

Technique that uses radio waves, and a strong magnetic field, rather than an x-ray beam to produce highly detailed Multiplan or cross-sectional views of soft tissue

Question 2

Nuclear scan

Answer 2

Technique in which a radioactive material radiopharmaceutical called a tracer, is introduced into the body, inhaled ingested, or injected in a specialized camera. A gamma camera produces images of organs and structures.

Question 3

Positron emission tomography

Answer 3

Computed tomography records, the positrons positively charged particles emitted from a radiopharmaceutical to produce a cross-sectional image of a metabolic activity of body tissue to determine the presence of a disease

Question 4

Radiography

Answer 4

Technique in which x-rays are passed through the body or area and captured on a film to generate an image also called an x-ray

Question 5

Single photon, omission, computed, tomography

Answer 5

Radio logical technique that integrates computed tomography, and a radioactive material tracer injected into the bloodstream to visualize blood flow to tissue and organs

Question 7

Ultrasonography

Answer 7

High frequency sound waves are directed at soft tissue and reflected as echos to produce an image on a monitor of an internal body structure also called an ultrasound, sonography and echo
