Alzheimer’s and Dementia are becoming more prevalent in America, caretakers and medical professionals are urging people to become more self-aware of these diseases. Dementia is a disease that can develop into other disorders such as Vascular Dementia or Parkinsons Disease; however, in most cases, it usually ends up as Alzhiemers. It 's a typically seen in older people; about, sixty five and older, so of course one would automatically put themselves, and their family out of the picture, that is until

When the word radiation is said most people automatically think cancer. There are many uses of radiation in medicine. There are several ways to detect forms of cancer in the body. One form of detection is having a positron emission tomography scan also knows as a PET scan. Radiation is also used as a therapy through the use of a treatment using chemotherapy. There is also a form of treatment called Radiation therapy that is used as a medical use. The journey from using radiation to detect if the

Positron Emission Tomography (PET) “Positron emission tomography (PET) is a unique test that uses positron emitters. It can be used in different parts of the body. PET scanning can be combined with anatomical imaging such as CT and MRI, which enhanced the usefulness of the PET. The PET scanning test are essential tools to diagnose various kind of diseases with abnormal characteristics. PET can be use in Oncology routinely. In Neurology, PET is used to determine the diagnosis of dementia by detecting

September 20, 2011 was the day that everything changed. Practice that day was long and excruciatingly hot. My coach did not let me take a rest as I was the only full back we had at the time. Hit after hit, it started to add up and my world was spinning but coach told me to keep going, so I did. The very next snap my world got wrecked. My form became lazy because I was beyond exhausted and dehydrated, my head lead my attempt to break the tackle and the kid making the tackle lead with his head as well

MRI's are used to rid of other conditions that may account for or be added to emotional symptoms. Computerized Tomography, a CT scan creates cross-sectional pictures of the brain. It's used to rule out tumors, strokes and head traumas. Positron Emission Tomography or a PET scan is where a person is injected with a low-level radioactive tracer into a vein, which is a special type of glucose that shows overall activity in various brain areas. This can show which parts of your brain are not working

PET Scan Diagnostic Imaging is extremely relevant in today’s medical treatments. Doctors have a variety of different imaging and scans techniques that help diagnose, evaluate, and treat patients. The PET scan stands for Positron Emission Tomography and is a nuclear imaging test that shows metabolic activities of the brain. Unlike a CT, MRI and X-ray that scan to image the anatomy of the brain the PET scan image is an image of how the brain is functioning. A PET scan Uses Positron radiation combined

Unfortunately, too many dogs are neglected when it comes to good grooming. Just as their owners, dogs also need to be regularly groomed. In addition to smelling bad and looking untidy, ungroomed dogs can also suffer from poor health. If you’re a dog owner, here are some basic dog grooming guidelines. Bathing Your Dog One of the main aspects of good dog grooming is keeping your pet clean. Here are some considerations: • The shampoo you need depends on your condition of your dog’s coat and skin, so

resulting vehicles were high powered, zero emission, but could only run for approximately 100 miles on a charge, which is sufficient for most day to day driving. Because they knew that the technology was feasible and because of the global warming phenomenon resulting from the uncontrolled burning of fossil fuels, California state regulators passed the Zero Emission Vehicle Mandate in 1990, requiring all auto makers to offer for sale in the state zero emission vehicles. The electric car was the most

3. Advantages and Setbacks of PET Positron emission tomography is primarily used in the area of medicine and research study. It has been influential in finding the cure for many diseases including Alzheimer’s and cancer. The positron emitting glucose analog, 18F-fluoro-2-deoxyglucose (FDG) has helped in the diagnosis, staging, and monitoring therapeutic response in various cancers. The metabolic imaging assessment is very helpful in providing important clinical data which in turn improves the patient
