Radiological Investigation III: Pulmonary Angiogram and PET Scan01:13

Radiological Investigation III: Pulmonary Angiogram and PET Scan

529
Radiological investigations are paramount in the diagnosis and management of various pulmonary diseases. Two essential investigations are the Pulmonary Angiogram and the Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Scan.
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...

Radiological Investigation I: X-ray and CT

1.3K
Radiological investigations, including X-rays and computed tomography (CT) scans, are critical for diagnosing and evaluating various medical conditions. These imaging techniques provide valuable insights into the body's internal structures, aiding in the detection of abnormalities, assessment of disease progression, and development of treatment strategies. This article delves into two primary radiological investigations, chest X-rays and CT scans, outlining their purpose, procedures, and...

Endoscopic Studies I: Bronchoscopy and Thoracoscopy

751
Endoscopy is a non-surgical medical technique used to examine a person's internal organs and vessels. This lesson will focus on two types of endoscopic studies: bronchoscopy and thoracoscopy.
Bronchoscopy
Description
Bronchoscopy is a procedure that involves direct visualization of the larynx, trachea, and bronchi for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. A flexible fiber optic or rigid bronchoscope is used to carry out the procedure. The fiber-optic bronchoscope is more frequently used due...

Assessment of the Abdomen III: Palpation01:23

Assessment of the Abdomen III: Palpation

4.0K
Palpation is a crucial tactile examination method for assessing abdominal organs and detecting conditions like tenderness, distention, masses, or fluid. It involves both light and deep palpation techniques, each serving specific diagnostic purposes. Light palpation helps identify tenderness and other surface-level indicators, while deep palpation locates and assess abdominal masses and organ boundaries. A skilled professional can gather valuable insights through palpation, including evaluating...

The Mammary Glands01:12

The Mammary Glands

2.4K
The female breast is a hemispheric projection of variable size positioned anterior to the pectoralis major and serratus anterior muscles. A fascia layer composed of dense, irregular connective tissue connects it to these muscles.
Each breast features a pigmented projection known as the nipple, through which milk emerges via closely spaced openings of ducts, referred to as lactiferous ducts. Surrounding the nipple is a circular pigmented area of skin named the areola, which appears rough due to...

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Radiology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Palpable breast lumps require accurate diagnostic assessment.
  • Multiple imaging and cytologic techniques are available for breast lesion evaluation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the diagnostic value of Physical Examination (PE), Mammography (MG), Ultrasound Scan (USS), and Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology (FNAC) for palpable breast lumps.
  • To propose a cost-effective diagnostic algorithm.

Main Methods:

  • Seventy patients with 72 palpable breast lumps were evaluated.
  • Diagnostic performance of PE, MG, USS, and FNAC was individually and collectively assessed.

Main Results:

  • The study evaluated the diagnostic contributions of each method.
  • A cost-effective algorithm integrating these investigations was developed.

Conclusions:

  • The findings support the combined utility of PE, MG, USS, and FNAC in diagnosing breast lumps.
  • The suggested algorithm aims to optimize diagnostic accuracy and cost-effectiveness.
