Imaging Studies III: Gastrointestinal Motility Studies and Virtual Colonoscopy

36
This lesson explores three gastrointestinal imaging techniques: radionuclide testing, colonic transit studies, and virtual colonoscopy.
Radionuclide Testing
Radionuclide testing is a sophisticated medical technique for assessing gastrointestinal motility. It focuses on gastric emptying and colonic transit time. Radioactive markers track the movement of food through the digestive system, providing insights into gastrointestinal disorders.
In gastric emptying studies, a meal's liquid and...

Ultrasound I: Abdominal Ultrasonography

149
Introduction:
Abdominal ultrasonography, commonly known as abdominal ultrasound, is a vital, non-invasive medical imaging technique widely used in healthcare.
Procedure:
This diagnostic tool allows the clinician to visually inspect internal structures within the abdomen, including vital organs such as the liver, gallbladder, pancreas, kidneys, and spleen.
The abdominal ultrasound process begins with applying a special gel to the patient's skin over the abdomen. This gel enhances the...

Ultrasonography

4.3K
Ultrasonography is an imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to visualize the body's internal structures. It is a non-invasive and safe procedure that does not involve the use of ionizing radiation, making it widely used in various medical fields. Ultrasonography is used to study heart function, blood flow in the neck or extremities, certain conditions such as gallbladder disease, and fetal growth and development.
During an ultrasonography procedure, a handheld device called...

    Area of Science:

    • Medical Imaging
    • Ultrasound Technology
    • Biomedical Engineering

    Background:

    • Expanding the field of view (FOV) in medical ultrasound is crucial for detecting tissue and organ abnormalities.
    • Conventional rigid ultrasound transducers have fixed imaging apertures determined during manufacturing.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop a flexible curvature abdominal array (FCAA) capable of dynamically expanding the FOV up to 120°.
    • To evaluate the imaging performance and clinical applicability of the novel FCAA.

    Main Methods:

    • A 128-element, 3-MHz FCAA was designed using a double-cut process and two-component viscoelastic substrates (TCVSs).
    • A 3-D-printed push-pull device enabled a minimum curvature radius of 46 mm.
    • A rigid-flexible composite backing layer was employed to optimize mechanical flexibility and bandwidth.

    Main Results:

    • The FCAA achieved high bandwidth (-6 dB to 67.6%) and excellent resolution (axial: 0.35 mm, lateral: 0.77 mm on phantom; axial: 0.36 mm, lateral: 1.02 mm at 120° FOV).
    • B-mode imaging of volunteer organs (kidneys, intestines, uterus, bladder) and Doppler imaging of a renal artery phantom demonstrated FCAA's efficacy.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed FCAA offers dynamic FOV expansion for enhanced abdominal ultrasound imaging.
    • The technology shows significant potential for clinical value in abdominal and gynecological examinations.
