SEM 1 : Medical Imaging

?

1. what is the appearance of dense and sparse tissue and why?

  • white is dense and dark is less dense. denser structures absorb more X-rays and so less energy is passed to receptors.
  • white is dense and dark is less dense. denser structures absorb more X-rays and so less energy is passed to receptors. images are often inverted.
  • white is less dense and dark is dense. denser structures absorb more X-rays and so less energy is passed to receptors.

4. what is shown in MRI

  • function and physiology of tissues
  • multiplanar images with good soft tissue display
  • real time moving images of bony structures and contrast soft tissue
  • bones and joints and some soft tissue
  • coronal image of soft tissue - can have colour overlay
  • cross sectional images of bone and soft tissue

5. how are X- rays produced

  • applying heat to a filament, which cause it to emit electrons into a target. An electrical current accelerates them, and they generate X-rays which diverge
  • applying electrical current to a filament, which heats it causing it to emit electrons into a focusing cup. A PD accelerates them, to towards a target, where they generate X-rays which converge
