Radiographic Summary

Do any of you know what a Diagnostics Medical Sonographer is? I don't think very many people know what Diagnostic Medical Sonographer is, so I will be telling you guys what that is. I will be telling you about the job, about how much money you get, what you do during the job, the education you need for the job, why I like this job, and why other people like this job.

This assignment will present a reflective analysis of the examination, diagnosis, treatment and referral plan based on a simulated patient presenting with a minor injury. Potential diagnoses related to the mechanism of injury will discussed aligning the patient presentation with the literature to produce the most likely diagnosis. When this is established, a suggested treatment plan will be created in line with current guidance.

Radiology Poem Sitting in the hospital room, Not knowing what’s going to happen, Wishing I could change everything, But knowing I can’t. Hearing those clicks of the x-rays, Wondering how this all works out, But when the doctor walks in,

Fractures to the ribs or the leg bones in babies. Multiple fractures or breaks at different stages of healing.

Child abuse is also characterized by broken bones. Child abuse is sometimes difficult to differentiate from osteogenesis imperfecta if assessment and examination are not done properly. For many years, many appropriate efforts have been undertaken to help differentiate those two diagnoses and protect children. Child abuse is a pattern of behavior that can often pass down from one Generation to the next. Often when false accusations of child abuse may occur in families with children who have milder forms of OI. Also, there are some types of fractures that can typically observed in both child abuse and OI such as fractures in multiple stages of healing ,rib fractures, spiral fractures ,fractures with no adequate explanation of trauma. Usually, when fractures in a child seem incompatible, child abuse is often suspected (McCance & Huether,

What are the differences between professional component and technical component of radiological services? Knowing the difference is extremely important because the difference can mean a monetary difference to the physician, on how much reimbursement will be. Knowing this and knowing which to bill for also makes an important difference. The professional component covers what the physician does, which is the interpretation, and nothing else. The technical component covers any equipment used, facilities, non-medical staff, and supplies, everything needed for the procedure, except the physician. We also should include the global billing, because that is when all charges, including the physician, and the equipment, facilities, and such were completed at one location. Global is a combination of professional and technical charges because all services were performed at one location. There are modifier codes that are added at the end of the procedure codes that indicate what type of service that is being billed.

As healthcare professionals, those in the field of radiology work to support sick and injured patients on the road toward diagnosis and recovery. Though many may see radiographers as employees serving a purpose to aid those with a disabling injury, many fail to acknowledge the possibility of radiographers being prone to injury themselves. There are many factors that contribute to the risk of work related injuries, which include heavy physical work, lifting and forceful movements, bending and twisting, sustained poor postures, and repetitive or frequent movement patterns. As a radiographer, job requirements entail repetitive movements involving lifting and positioning patients, some of which fail to cooperate or are unable to follow verbal direction. Also, some patients who are unable to assist in moving and position create added stress to multiple joints and muscles for the technologist. When patients are maneuvered incorrectly, radiographers are prone to physical stress and musculoskeletal disorders in many different areas of the body. Additionally, the use of heavy lead aprons and the image archiving systems that are used to collect

What additional laboratory or radiological tests would be indicated and why? What would you expect to find?

The articles by Branstetter, Bartholmai and Channin (2004) and Kohli, Dreyer and Geis (2015) make an important contribution to the knowledge base of radiology informatics. The overall delivery of health care has benefited greatly from the technology explosion that has affected almost every industry. This benefit has been highly visible in the practice of radiology. The introductions of radiology information systems, voice recognition dictation systems, and picture archiving and communication systems (PACS) led to significant advancements in workflow efficiencies. To this end, both articles examine informatics innovations of the past several decades that have immensely enhanced

In order to properly diagnose this type of injury, Dr. Erik Nilssen and his medical staff take several things into consideration, including the patient’s:

After being away for my first year of college, I finally got to see what this world is full of and the plethora of opportunities that are out there. My academic goals consist of completing my requirements at Monterey Peninsula College and earning my Associates Degree, then attempt to get into Cabrillo College’s Radiology Certification program to get my life started. My vocational goals are to get certified as a Radiology Technician, then eventually go a step higher and become a Radiologist. During my college experience, I have experienced what it is like to “wear many hats.” I am a full time college student and athlete, as well as working to help pay off my education. It was a rough start trying to find the time to balance everything,

In 1986 Watters et al developed a composite clinical-radiographic-physiologic (CRP) 75 scoring system based on several parameters as dyspnea, chest radiograph, spirometry, lung volume, diffusion capacity, resting alveolar-arterial PO2, and O2 saturation corrected for maximal achieved VO2max in 26 biopsy-proven IPF patients. Scores ranged from 0 to 100 (100 being the most severe disease). The authors looked at the relationship between CRP scores and histopathologic findings, including a cellular pathology score based on abnormalities considered potentially reversible, a fibrotic pathology score based on abnormalities felt to be essentially irreversible, and an index of overall pathologic derangement (total pathology score). The CRP score determined after 6 months of corticosteroid therapy showed a

Have you ever had an x-ray taken or perhaps had a sonogram done? If so then you probably met a radiologic technologist. A radiologic technologist is a person that is trained in using x-ray and ultrasound imaging technology as a diagnostic tool or as a part of a patient’s treatment plan. A radiologic technologist creates images of specific areas and parts of the human body, including bones, tissue, blood vessels, and organs. They may also perform such imaging procedures such as mammography, x-rays, sonography, computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Radiologic technologists work under the supervision of radiologists trained to read and interpret medical
