Intraoperative Assessment of Resection Margins in Oral Cavity Cancer: This is the Way
Published on: May 10, 2021
Abstract:
The time has come to reevaluate the use of films of substandard quality obtained from outdated radiography equipment. The authors recommend that surgical subspecialists, orthopedic surgeons, emergency room physicians, gastroenterologists, or whoever employs radiology in the operating room ensure that technological progress in radiology be transferred to the surgical area. The mobile C-arm image amplifier with television fluoroscopy and single-image storage device should be considered for orthopedic surgery and ER rooms. More sophisticated equipment is required for operative cholangiography and operative angiography.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Ventilation Perfusion Scans are two radiological investigations that offer detailed diagnostic images of the body, particularly lung structures.
MRI
MRI uses magnetic fields and radiofrequency signals to distinguish between normal and abnormal tissues. This technology provides a more detailed diagnostic image than CT scans, enabling it to characterize pulmonary nodules, stage bronchogenic carcinoma, and evaluate inflammatory activity in...

Pulmonary Angiogram
A Pulmonary Angiogram is an invasive procedure involving injecting a contrast medium through a catheter threaded into the pulmonary artery or the right side of the heart to visualize the pulmonary vasculature. Computed Tomography (CT) scans have mainly replaced this...
