Imaging Studies I: CT and MRI01:14

Imaging Studies I: CT and MRI

668
Introduction: MRI and CT scans are crucial advancements in medical imaging techniques, playing a vital role in diagnosing conditions related to the gastrointestinal (GI) system. Each scan serves distinct purposes, targets specific areas, and requires unique nursing duties.
Description of the Procedures
Computed Tomography (CT) scan:
Computed Tomography (CT) scans use X-ray technology to generate detailed images of bones, organs, and tissues. During the scan, the patient lies on a moving table...

Radiological Investigation II: MRI and Ventilation Perfusion Scan

401
Description
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...

Aneurysm II: Clinical Manifestations and Diagnostic Studies

114
Thoracic, aortic arch and abdominal aneurysms are significant vascular conditions that can present with various clinical manifestations and lead to serious complications. Understanding these manifestations and the appropriate diagnostic studies is essential for effective management and treatment.Thoracic Aortic AneurysmsThoracic aortic aneurysms often remain asymptomatic until they reach a size that impinges on adjacent structures. They typically cause deep, diffuse chest pain that radiates to...

Radiological Investigation III: Pulmonary Angiogram and PET Scan

305
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...

  • To review the historical development of RIS diagnostic criteria.
  • To analyze clinical and imaging characteristics of RIS in pediatric and adult populations.
  • To identify imaging markers predicting conversion to MS and discuss current management challenges.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review focusing on studies published since 2009.
  • Analysis of diagnostic criteria evolution and clinical/imaging findings.
  • Synthesis of data on high-risk imaging features and treatment controversies.

Main Results:

  • Detailed review of the historical trajectory of RIS diagnostic criteria.
  • Compilation of clinical presentations and neuroimaging findings in diverse age groups.
