Introduction
Management organization and equipment availability are important services in any department in hospital and they should be in ideal way and complete in order to help in the diagnosis of many diseases for the patient and this lead to make the work performance easier in hospital and satisfaction of the patient about these services. Management organization should include important roles which are documented governmentally or organization.
Electronic System is important issue to organize the work in hospitals which Help the patient to find his services in short time include the Radiology Information System( RIS) that Considered the Core System For The Electronic Management Of Imaging Department, Electronic Medical Record (EMR) which

The jaw is a curved structure similar to that of a horseshoe. However, the panoramic x-ray produces a flat image of the curved structure. It is typically set to provide Details of the bones and teeth. Where the film is placed inside of the mouth, the film for a panoramic x-ray is contained inside of the machine. (6)
Conventional radiography
Conventional radiographic examination of the human body dates back to the genesis of diagnostic radiology in 1895. When Wilhelm Roentgen produced the first x-ray film image of his wife's hand. Conventional radiography remains fundamental to the practice of diagnostic imaging. (3)
Computed radiography (CR) is a filmless System that eliminates chemical processing and provides digital radiographic imaging. CR substitutes a phosphor imaging plate for the film screen cassette. (3)
Digital radiography (DR) provides a film-free and cassette-free system for capturing x-ray images in digital format. (3)
Conventional tomography provides radiographic images of slices of a living patient. This is done by simultaneously moving both the x-ray tube and the x-ray Detector.
Technology is an ever-growing industry which has become a factor in nearly everyone’s daily schedule in one way or another. As a result of the growth in modern technology, innovations in the medical field have developed extraordinarily in the past decade alone. For instance, there is an extensive variety of imaging equipment which could be used to create reliable results, such as the CT scan or even the X-ray machine. However, Sonography has out-smarted the competition when seeking a non-evasive, safe, and affordable method of visualizing the body to assist in the process of immediate care.
1.0 Introduction Acute respiratory distress syndrome also called adult respiratory distress syndrome. Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) was originally defined by Ashbaugh et al in 1967 as a condition identify by rapid onset tachypnoea and hypoxaemia with loss of lung compliance and bilateral infiltrates on chest radiograph. ARDS happen both adult and children. ARDS may happen in people of any age. Its rate increases with advancing age, ranging from 16 cases per 100,000 person-years in those aged 15-19 years to 306 cases per 100,000 person-years in those between the ages of 75 and 84 years.
Since its startup in 2005 its mission to disrupt the slow moving world of health care by providing a free service of Electronic Medical Records (EMR) to doctors and their facilities. This system will benefit doctors by cutting down cost, decrease medical errors, decrease mishandled or forgotten messages. It will help the overall goal of medical errors. It improves accuracy through record legibility and record
You also work with a group of people including a radiologist assistant and a few radiologist nurses that set up and prep the patient and area for their x-rays.
Sonography has significant advantages when used to operate on internal parts of the body including vessels, joints muscles and other soft structures of the body. Firstly, when performing procedures that involve injections, incisions and other invasive operations, ultrasound provides real-time visual aid to radiologists. It is also safer than X-rays and CT Scans which expose patients to ionizing radiation ("Risks, Benefits And Future Of Ultrasound • Ultrasound Technician") Because of the numerous benefits of using ultrasound technology, designers and medical practitioners are focusing on developing more efficient devices that are portable and cost saving. ("Risks,
MRI Techs are professionals and trained to be who they are. MRI Technicians are certified and learn how to create many things. Title of my health career
Radiomics lies at the juncture of what I believe to be extremely exciting science in the coming future of personalized medicine. This is what prompted me to approach Dr. Rivka Colen (desired mentor), of the Department of Diagnostic Radiology, to conduct research in her lab. An interplay between research and clinical treatment such as the way Dr. Colen implements will be one of the grounds that I intend to structure my own practice around. The MD Anderson 1st Year Medical Student Program would help me achieve the first steps towards conducting research in my career as a physician-scientist.
1. Write a brief introduction about the diagnostic imaging modality. Nuclear medicine is a section of medical imaging that uses radioactive medication known as radiotracers or radiopharmaceutical (Understanding nuclear medicine, 2009). Radiotracers are given to the patient through injection, swallowing or inhalation, which makes the body radioactive for a short time. The radiation is detected by a special camera, and then the image is produced.
Before the dentist even examines any patient “clinically” , a dental assistant will typically take radiographs, or “x-rays”, of the patient. One main type of a dental radiographic image would be a panoramic radiograph. Panoramic X-rays show a wide screen view of the teeth, temporomandibular (jaw) joints, sinuses, and the nasal area. These radiographic pictures show
I choose to do my project on the Radiologist career field because it is a career field I one-day hope to join. A radiologist is a doctor who reads varies type of exams of patients. The radiologist uses the information gathered from diagnostic test to diagnose a patient. A radiologist does most of their time reading
With the shortage of Radiologists and with the expansion of radiology technology, the need for radiologist assistant has great increased in the past year. Radiologist Assistants are comparable to a physician’s assistant. Both of these jobs assist doctors in performing advance medicine. According to the American Society of Radiologic Technologists, radiologist assistants are registered radiographers who have additional education and certification that qualifies them to serve as radiologist extenders (IN TEXT). The extra education allows a higher pay scale and qualified to perform more procedures.
With the populations growing and the ages of people increase medical imaging and the diagnosis of diseases seems to be in a higher demand. There is nothing but a positive outlook for a Radiologic tech. There is more to being a Radiologic technician that we never thought about. When we visit the health care office for one of these exams we might not have ever thought about the schooling and experience they have had to go threw to be helping you with what they are helping you with today. We might not have even know who the people are called that give you your x-ray exam , MRI, or your CT scan, but now you do and have background knowledge on who
Dental radiographs are important tools in the diagnosis of oral diseases. It helps the dentist to employ appropriate treatment regimen for patient’s dental conditions, and plays a continual important role in dental practice. Radiation dosage from such dental radiographs are low and are thought to present minimal risk (Enabulele & Igbinedion, 2013) The radiation protection is the science and art of protecting people and environment from the harmful effects of ionizing radiation.
As it has already been discussed in this paper, physicians are responsible for any clinical negligence that may cause harm or injury to the patient. In many journal studies researching radiology, various field cases have been identified and studied. They have shown that radiologists who have not been very often accused of clinical negligence have become in trouble. The errors committed while conducting their radiological work are sometimes caused by their lack of experience or out of their care. But in both cases, they are held to be liable and patients may file lawsuits against
Some advantages of this technique are that there is no radiation involved, it is good at visualizing soft tissue, and that since it can visualize soft tissue so easily it can identify a multitude of different problems. Some disadvantages are that it is time consuming, expensive, and there is extensive training needed to operate it. The last type of imaging technique that will be covered is conventional radiography which can detect foreign bodies and changes or lesions of the skeletal system and is used when the corpse cannot fit into the CT machine. The advantages of this technique are that it is simple, quick, and cost efficient. However, it uses radiation, cannot make three-dimensional reconstructions, has a superimposed image, and it cannot visualize soft tissue
