Magnetic resonance angiography

1.7.2.2 Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Scan Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) uses magnets and radio waves to produce a more detailed image than CT scans. An MRI likely would not be used as part of an initial brain injury assessment because it takes too long to complete, although it may

Multitasking Might be the Way to Go Before the current computers and smartphones were common place, the overall pace of life was much slower. In order to communicate people had to either write a letter or visit each other in person. As time went on, technology began to develop and allow for correspondence over greater distances in shorter amounts of time. This trend continued until it evolved into the fast paced, instant messaging society that now exists today. Effortless and instantaneous transmissions

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Computed Tomography Scan (CT) Modern medical technology allows physicians to capture detailed images of the body for diagnosing and treatment planning of various health issues. Radiologists use imaging technologies to diagnose or treat diseases. Interventional radiology is the performance of medical procedures with the guidance of imaging technologies. Acquisition of medical imaging is usually performed by a radiologic technologist and the results are interpreted

Forensic imaging, particularly MRI technology is crucial in determining the cause of death in forensic pathology. There are a few main techniques for forensic imaging, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), post-mortem computed tomography (PMCT), and conventional radiography. The PMCT is generally used for gunshot wounds, detection of gas embolism, trauma cases, and changes in the skeletal system. Some advantages of this technique are that it is fast, easy to handle, good three-dimensional reconstruction

methology is depended on how the information is been extracted and classified of the features extracted. As explained earlier the main purpose of the paper is to increase accelerate and amplify the textural analysis and extract the features from magnetic resonance imaging of a brain by adding on a GPU to it( Graphical Processing Unit). MRI has been one of the most important Image Enhancement technique used in diagnostics for many years because of its flexible, powerful and image enhancing characteristics

Synthesis of heterocycles 4 and 9a,b To a solution of isothiocyanate 2 (0.68 g, 2 mmol) in dichloromethane (10 mL), a propriate amine (2 mmol) was added with stirring. The mixture was stirred for 1-3 hours and then the solvent was removed under reduced pressure giving compounds 4 and 9a,b. Diethyl 2-(2-(ethoxycarbonyl)hydrazinecarbothioamido)-4,5-dihydrothieno-[2,3-c]pyridine-3,6(7H)-dicarboxylate (4) Colorless crystals from methanol (0.61 g, 69 %). M.p. 197-198 oC. 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO, ppm):

ABSTRACT Magnetic resonance imaging is very powerful automated diagnostic method to detect abnormalities present inside the living system. But the results produced by magnetic resonance imaging process can be affected by various factors that can affect quality of image. These factors generate artifacts that can affect diagnostic quality. Artifacts can be classified into various types based on their source of origin. This paper focusses on some of the most common artifacts and methods and solutions

During a recent evaluation of the radiology department I noticed there is a need for improvement of equipment. The department is well staffed but the efficiency is not at an acceptable level. I have found, “The new regulations mandate substantial changes in the ways hospitals manage medical equipment – and these new requirements mean administrators will spend considerably more time, money and staff to maintain their facility's medical equipment. To maintain compliance, hospital administrators

The intervertebral disk is a soft pad of cartilage located between each vertebrae of the spine; it has elliptical shape and functions as shock-absorbing and keeping the spine flexible. With time the spine can be exposed long stress, diseases, infections, and high impact injuries. These cases can cause degeneration, lack of disks function and some pains; which play an essential role in major public health problems in industrial countries, and it is the number one reason for absence from work leading

"How can your love be these dangerous things, and not bring me down, instead, giving me wings." -Tony Watson. Most people (especially teenagers) think that love is the most powerful thing on earth, and it is true; but what they don’t see, is that teens tend to have different way of thinking and point of view of life, which means that their definition of “normal” is way different from the adults definition, therefore, they tend to do things that adult people usually call “dumb” or even dangerous.
