 This week in MT Client you are doing operative reports and some radiology reports. We are going to go over radiology this week.  We will reserve questions to the end of the seminar.  I will be assigning questions this week so listen for your name; please let those people answer.  Two weeks left to go. No more cheat sheets. Sorry.

 What is Radiology? branch of medicine using X-rays: The branch of medicine that deals with the use of X-rays and radioactive substances such as radium in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases.  What is Interventional Radiology? More specific to the type of imaging modalities including US, NM, CT, MRI, and PET’s

 Interventional radiography is a rapidly growing subspecialty of radiology that involves more than jus diagnosing disease but plays a role in treating many conditions that n previously were managed surgically. In some cases it can replace surgery, and in other instances it can complement surgery. Can you think of any cases were interventional radiology may replace surgery?

1. CT: computed tomography 2. MRI: magnetic resonance imaging 3. AP: anteroposterior 4. GI Series: gastrointestinal series 5. KUB, kidneys, ureters, bladder 6. IVP: Intravenous pyelogram 7. LLQ: left lower quadrant 8. PA: posteroanterior 9. ROM: range of motion

1. Adduction 2. Contrast medium 3. Amorphous 4. Cricopharyngeal 5. Angiography 6. Doppler 7. Anteverted 8. Echocardiogram 9. Arteriogram

1. Adduction: the movement of an extremity toward the midline. 2. Contrast medium: the pharmaceutical given to the patient to allow radiographic visualization of a body structure. 3. Amorphous: having no definite form, or shapeless. 4. Cricopharyngeal: pertains to the cricoid cartilage and the pharynx 5. Angiography: radiography of a blood vessel after injecting a contrast agent.

6. Doppler: an ultrasound scanning technique used to analyze blood flow and the heart and to study intermittent claudication, thrombus obstruction of deep veins, and other abnormalities. 7. Anteverted: the abnormal forward tilting of an organ. 8. Echocardiogram: a diagnostic procedure using ultrasound to study heart structure and motion. 9. Arteriogram: the radiographic visualization of an artery after injection of a contrast medium.
