まとめ
光音響コンピューテッドトモグラフィー(PACT)は、患者に優しい乳房イメージングの代替手段を提供する。患者アンケートによると、PACTはマンモグラフィやMRIよりも容易であり、将来の臨床改善に役立つ。
背景:
- マンモグラフィ、超音波、MRIなどの現在の乳房イメージング技術には、放射線、ユーザー依存性、造影剤の必要性などの制限があります。
- 患者のフィードバックは、新しい乳房イメージング技術を進歩させる上で重要です。
研究 の 目的:
- 乳房イメージングのための光音響コンピューテッドトモグラフィー(PACT)の実現可能性と患者体験を評価すること。
- PACT技術の臨床改善に役立つ患者の視点を収集すること。
主な方法:
- 手術または新補助療法を受けている乳がん患者が、PACTを評価する研究に登録されました。
- 画像検査セッション後に、リッカート尺度、多肢選択式、自由回答形式の質問を含む患者アンケートが実施されました。
主要な成果:
- 49人の患者の86%が少なくとも1回のアンケートを完了し、完了時間は10分未満でした。
- 患者は、マンモグラフィおよびMRIと比較して、PACTの実施が圧倒的に容易であると報告しました。
- フィードバックには、より良いクッションやヘッドサポートなど、快適性の向上に関する提案が含まれていました。
結論:
- 光音響乳房イメージング(PACT)は、乳がん患者にとって実現可能で十分に忍容されるイメージングモダリティです。
- 患者から報告された結果は、PACTの臨床応用の強化に貴重な洞察を提供します。

Surveys

Often, psychologists develop surveys as a means of gathering data. Surveys are lists of questions to be answered by research participants, and can be delivered as paper-and-pencil questionnaires, administered electronically, or conducted verbally. Generally, the survey itself can be completed in a short time, and the ease of administering a survey makes it easy to collect data from a large number of people.

DefinitionComputed Tomography (CT) of the genitourinary (GU) tract is a non-invasive imaging modality that utilizes X-rays and computer processing to generate detailed cross-sectional images of the urinary system, encompassing the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and adjacent structures such as the adrenal glands.PurposeCT scans of the GU tract serve several diagnostic and therapeutic purposes, including:Diagnosis of Urinary Tract Diseases: Detects kidney stones, tumors, cysts, and congenital...

Introduction to Surveying, Plane Surveying and Geodetic Surveys
1.0K
Surveying is the art and science of mapping the earth's surface. It involves measuring distances, angles in horizontal or vertical directions, and levels to understand the shape and size of land features. Surveying techniques are essential for various tasks, such as identifying the levels of a land area with reference to a specific point, and mapping undulations and water bodies.There are two main types of surveying: plane surveys and geodetic surveys. Plane surveys assume the earth is flat,...

Types of Surveys
356
Surveys are essential for marking property boundaries near water bodies. Different types of surveys are defined, each with its own function. Land surveys mark the property boundaries, while route surveys determine the position of properties on nearby highways. Topographic surveys create maps by capturing the three-dimensional features of the land. Hydrographic surveys focus on the shapes of underwater areas and the movement of streams through the properties. Mine surveys determine the relative...

Survey Safety
380
Surveying near highways, rough terrain, or power lines involves significant risks. Working along highways is particularly dangerous and requires the use of warning signs and flagmen. It is safest to avoid working directly on roads and use offsets whenever possible. When highway work is unavoidable, it must follow all safety guidelines. Surveyors should wear bright clothing, such as orange reflective vests, to ensure visibility to motorists, coworkers, and hunters. In construction zones, wearing...

Errors and Mistakes in Surveying
661
Errors and mistakes in surveying refer to inaccuracies in measurements and data recording. The errors are deviations from the actual value caused by human sensory limitations, equipment flaws, or environmental effects. These errors are typically unintentional and can result from the inherent imperfections in the instruments used, atmospheric conditions, or the observer’s inability to perceive exact measurements. On the other hand, mistakes are caused by the surveyor's lack of...
