Radionuclide techniques in the evaluation of cerebrospinal fluid shunts
Abstract:
Currently, radionuclide studies offer the simplest and most accurate means of determining the patency of CSF shunts. The selection of the best test procedure depends upon the type of hydrocephalus and the type of shunt which has been inserted. This review documents the development of radionuclide shunt patency tests and suggests the optimum test procedure for a given clinical problem.

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...

Transthoracic Echocardiography (TTE)
TTE is the most common type of echocardiogram which involves placing a transducer on the patient's chest, emitting sound waves to create heart images. TTE is invaluable for evaluating the heart's size, structure, and motion, making it particularly useful for diagnosing...
