Abstract:
Radiologists often encounter imaging requisitions that lack important information needed for accurate diagnostic studies. Reason for exam Imaging Reporting and Data System (RI-RADS) is proposed as a grading system for evaluation of the quality of clinically pertinent information provided in imaging requisitions. Three categories of information are suggested as key indicators of quality: impression, clinical findings, and the diagnostic question. This scheme is intended to improve the quality of imaging requisitions and overall patient care.

Radiological Investigation II: MRI and Ventilation Perfusion Scan
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...

Definition and Purpose
An X-ray, or radiograph, is a non-invasive method that uses ionizing radiation to take images of internal structures. It is mainly used in cardiac imaging to examine the heart, lungs, and major blood vessels, aiming to identify abnormalities in the heart's size, shape, and position, such as heart failure, congenital defects, and vascular...
