Abstract

Objectives

The aim of this study was to assess the frequency of appropriateness of inpatient CT and MRI scans performed in Southern Italy.

Methods

The study was carried out by retrospectively reviewing medical records of adult patients admitted between 1 January and 31 December 2012 in two hospitals. The evaluation of appropriateness was performed according to the American College of Radiology Appropriateness Criteria, which assigns a score between 1 and 9.

Results


Eight hundred and fifty-three medical records were reviewed. Six hundred and thirty-nine patients received CT examinations and 256 received MRI examinations. Four hundred and ninety-six (77.6%) of the patient population had appropriate CT and 202 (78.9%) received appropriate MRI examinations. The appropriateness was associated with: a confirmation of the diagnostic hypothesis, only one examination performed during hospital stay, the anatomical scan region, with musculoskeletal system being the least appropriate anatomical scan region. Moreover, for CT examinations, appropriateness was also associated with no use of contrast agent.




Conclusions

Our findings highlight the need to reduce inappropriate use of CT and MRI. The study showed that the tool used is reliable to measure the extent of appropriateness of diagnostic imaging for inpatient examinations.

Will I be exposed to radiation if I have an MRI?

7.07.10

No. 


You will not receive any ionizing radiation. In non-technical terms, ionizing radiation means radiation that is capable of altering chemical compounds. – In this case the chemicals that make up your body or DNA.  Mostly we’re worried about radiation that could potentially alter our DNA  If radiation cannot change DNA then there is no accepted scientific evidence that it can cause cancer.  During a clinical MRI examination you will not receive radiation that is capable of damaging or altering the chemical structure of your DNA.

X-rays, on the other hand, are capable of damaging DNA.  Fortunately, this is very rare.  Moreover, a healthy cell can generally repair damage done by ionizing radiation without becoming cancerous.  Interestingly, cancer cells, don’t  repair damage from radiation well and tend to die -- this is how Radiation Therapy is successful in treating cancer!
What is non-ionizing radiation, and is it used in an MRI?
We don’t often think about it, but the term radiation means any energy that is radiated or transmitted in the form or rays, waves, or particles.  Ionizing radiation, capable of altering chemical compounds by breaking the bonds that hold the atoms together, is only a very small fraction of all the possible types of radiation.  Most non-ionizing radiation is, well, heat!  When you hold your hand a few inches above a candle flame your hand gets warmed by the radiation -- heat waves -- emitted from the flame.  This type of radiation is called infrared radiation.  Light is radiation.  Radio waves are radiation.  These are all types of electromagnetic radiation.  (As it’s name suggests, electromagnetic radiation is either electrical or magnetic.)
We rely on electromagnetic energy in the process of MRI.  Specifically, we use crafty combinations of magnetic fields and radio waves.  But the types and frequencies are, by their nature and strength, non-ionizing, and there is no evidence to suggest that having an MRI can lead to cancer.
But can the types of non-ionizing radiation we use in MRI have other undesirable effects?
Even though the candle does not emit ionizing radiation if your hand is given an overdose of infrared radiation (heat) you’ll get a burn!  The amount of energy used in an MRI scan is pretty impressive, but it’s very, very carefully controlled.  Nonetheless, and in very rare cases, we can run into situations where the energy is concentrated in an unexpected and undesirable way, usually by certain types of metal.  This is why patients are  asked numerous times, and in different ways, whether they have any metal in their bodies.  Under certain conditions this could result in heating of the metal and a burn in the surrounding tissue.  That’s why so many of us in this field are so careful.
The primary concern is always patient safety!
Bottom line:  MRI does not use ionizing radiation or any type of radiation that is linked with cancer.  There is no evidence, or even suggestion, that having an MRI can increase your risk of getting cancer.  It is very safe, and we do not know of any harm that comes from having an MRI.

The threat is real----I do think these CANCERS which may occur do need some decades to do so. The direct contact of VICTIM TO RADIATION SOURCE may speed up these cancer timelines.

'Your Infrared Thermal Camera Specialists


Infrared Cameras Provide an Accurate, Low-Cost Diagnostic Tool for Veterinarians'


FEEDBACK from some in THE NETWORK-------SAVE THE CAT----WE DON'T CARE ABOUT HER.


Infrared Cameras Provide an Accurate, Low-Cost Diagnostic Tool for Veterinarians


In the hands of a trained veterinarian, infrared (also called thermal) imaging is a powerful tool for finding abnormalities such as infections, tumors, inflammation, fractures and muscle stress or injury in horses, pets and wildlife that may not otherwise be detected by more traditional methods.


Infrared cameras detect radiated thermal energy in the 7 – 14 micron (typical for medical purposes) region of the spectrum, just beyond the visible wavelengths. They are passive (do not emit radiation of any type), non-contact, non-invasive instruments that cause little stress in the animal so there is usually no need for sedation. It lets the owner immediately “see” the problem visually and both doctor and owner can then decide if further diagnosis is needed. Thermal imaging is an efficient method of evaluating the overall condition of the animal. It can provide rapid assessments resulting in quick care while eliminating a lot of guesswork.




Animals cannot tell what hurts and instinctively try to hide pain since it is a sign of weakness and may invite attack. Relatively inexpensive thermal imaging can discover a potential problem before it becomes serious or it may indicate that more expensive analysis or treatment is not necessary. While it won’t replace x-rays, ultrasound, MRI’s or physical exams, many vets who are familiar with infrared technology claim it is an extremely useful addition to existing diagnostic equipment and complements other techniques. Infrared cameras are about 40 times more sensitive to heat than the human hand (traditional palpation) and can detect temperature differences of less than 0.05 C.


Thermal imaging measures skin temperature changes and variations that correspond to metabolic changes in underlying tissue. These changes are often caused by an increase or decrease in blood flow; inflammation (warm-increased circulation) or nerve dysfunction (cool-decreased circulation). Increased heat is a major indicator of inflammation in a tendon or joint, hemorrhages or infection. Tumors and lesions also have increased blood flow and thus higher temperatures than the surrounding areas. Nerve damage and circulatory disorders can also be detected with thermal imaging and may indicate problems up to three weeks before clinical signs are apparent.


Thermography has been proven to be an effective tool in highlighting areas that need a closer look. Nerve damage and cold limbs are often overlooked because of the lack of heat. The ability to monitor the effectiveness of treatment and recovery is particularly valuable. Other technologies such as MRI or positron emission tomography (PET) scans do not provide the same information as thermal imaging.




When considering infrared equipment, it should be state-of-the art, reasonably priced, contain an uncooled detector and be hand-held for ease of use and portability. Mounted cameras, however, may be used to monitor and evaluate livestock at feeding or milking stations.



Infrared Cameras Inc. (ICI) of Beaumont, Texas manufactures such an instrument in the IR-Pad 640 Veterinary, a winning combination of infrared thermal technology and wide-screen Tablet system with custom calibration for all veterinarian applications. This portable, ultra-rugged indoor/outdoor IR system features a 640 X 512 detector; perfect for capturing high-resolution images in the office or field. It includes ICI’s IR Flash Touch Software which allows complete control over the color palette for viewing the black and white IR images in color scale and contains a full suite of analysis tools as well as Report Building software.



IR-Pad 640 Veterinary

Although this technology can be used on almost any type of animal (including humans) its use first became common in the horse industry, particularly for race horses, and has been a part of the equine health business since the 1960s. It is often used in pre-purchase exams, saddle-fit evaluations, hoof-balancing, abscess detection, pre and post-event physicals, general diagnostics including infection, inflammation, chronic and degenerative diseases, nerve and muscle injury as well as treatment and recovery monitoring.



Infrared cameras simply map warm and cool areas on a horse that might indicate a problem. The horse should be exercised to stimulate blood flow and then rested. The temperature will stay elevated in injured areas for up to 24 hours. While images are often taken by a technician they should be reviewed and interpreted by a qualified, infrared thermography-trained veterinarian. Thermography is particularly valuable in diagnosing neurological problems because it can differentiate between common lameness and rarer vascular problems. This helps eliminate unnecessary treatment and can show whether or not the animal is improving. Early detection of inflammation in tendons allows them to be fixed before rupturing; saving the horse a lot of pain and the owner a lot of vet bills.



Since buying a horse is usually a significant investment, thermal imaging should be part of any pre-purchase exam.



It can reveal problems that were missed in the physical exam or were temporarily covered up by recent injections or medication. The overall thermal pattern should show good symmetry. The thermographer must understand basic anatomy and realize that each animal has its own thermal pattern as well, which should be recorded as a baseline for future reference. Patterns are often more useful for evaluations than actual temperatures.




Poorly fitted saddles can cause flinching, dipping, uneven gait and other unusual behavior. The horse’s back should show evenly distributed pressure points (see image…) in order to provide comfort to both the animal and rider.


Lameness is often caused by multiple problems; a series of corrections may be needed to resolve the issue. Thermal imaging helps detect these secondary problems and can aid in the evaluation of the progress being made in several areas of the body. Trainers can see if a horse is well enough to be “pushed” without causing further damage.


Pets can benefit from thermal imaging as well. Dogs have a high threshold of pain so injuries might go unnoticed. They work and play hard so pain and injuries are common: joint stiffness and muscle problems, hip dysplasia (abnormal growth), skeletal problems often related to arthritis, toe injuries and problems from improperly fitting harnesses. Dental problems are often seen when unhealthy teeth appear cooler than surrounding healthy ones because of decreased circulation through the pulp. Increased blood flow to a dog’s leg may indicate injury or inflammation. However, it might be warm because the animal is using it more while staying off the injured one. Viewing the paw prints left on the floor after he moves away may show that one is cooler than the rest (not putting pressure on this paw) and that could result from pain in that leg or portion of the hip.



Cats are especially good at hiding pain so “touching” may not always be a reliable indicator. Most older cats have osteoarthritis, a degenerative joint disease that causes pain to certain degrees. Pain medication is available if the condition is diagnosed, most are not. Thermal imaging can help by showing hot spots in areas such as the back or hip that might indicate centers of pain.


Farmers and ranchers can benefit from thermal imaging by monitoring the general health of their livestock for many of the before mentioned conditions as well as problems associated with calving that include muscle and back injuries. Cows and sheep are also susceptible to foot abscesses (easily detected) that may need to be drained or pared. This will speed recovery and get them back into production as soon as possible with lower vet bills and less pain and discomfort to the animal.


Conclusion


Many of the past problems with thermal imaging were simply caused by untrained vets and techs using poor techniques with inferior equipment. Additionally, misinterpretations can be caused by different types and thicknesses of fur, moisture in fur and heating or cooling sources in exam area such as sunlight, heating/cooling vents and wind (if outdoors). It cannot be overemphasized that the final interpretation of images should be done by a veterinarian trained in the techniques of thermal imaging.

In summer of 2019 during PSYCHO-SEXUAL TORTURE I heard TAG NOSY NEIGHBORS through FEEDBACK saying they were installing new cameras in walls and sliding ramps to move them up and down.  So, BANGING AND BUMPING with NOSY NEIGHBORS talking made it clear a different CAMERA SET-UP was happening.  I was still thinking at that time this process was all about 24/7 illegally streaming VIDEO PORN ------so, I was PROTECTING MY STUFF from exposure to these video surveillance.

What was actually happening was the installation of a FLUOROSCOPY CAMERA------that camera could have been installed in my ceiling but after a while the IMAGES from 10 feet away would not have been useful.  My exposure to FLUOROSCOPY CAMERAS could have been a year before NOSY NEIGHBORS AND THE GANG built the structures in the wall between BEDROOM AND BATHROOM to allow FLUOROSCOPY CAMERAS to image at BED LEVEL.



'The radiologist or technologist will move the camera up and down to best see the area being examined.
The room will be dim to allow the images to be seen with more detail'.


When we go to a hospital or clinic-----we LAY ON A TABLE and the FLUOROSCOPY XRAY camera moves above us from toe to head----this is the CLINICAL XRAY ----which is done ONCE IN SEVERAL YEARS for diagnostics.  THIS NOT DONE EVERY DAY----THIS IS NOT DONE EVERY WEEK ----THIS NOT EVEN DONE EVERY MONTH.

The exposure to FLUOROSCOPY RADIATION is the most harmful----it is IONIZING RADIATION----damages your DNA and soft tissue and if NOSY NEIGHBORS AND HOSTING SERVER NOSY NEIGHBORS are imaging every NIGHT to monitor IMPLANTS---creating a MOTION PICTURE------of all the implant data.

THIS WAS WHAT FEEDBACK KEPT SAYING----THEY WERE MAKING ME A PORN STAR-----MAKING A VIDEO FILM OF ME.




FEEDBACK was angry because I was covering my HEAD with PILLOW-----I was going to bed in my CLOTHES------

So, the exposure which have happened in my sleep when I may have NOT COVERED MY HEAD----could have allowed RADIATION EXPOSURE.

The second problem with this FLUOROSCOPY CAMERA is CONTINUOUS FOCUS of these RADIATION OR LASERS on ONE SPOT of a BODY/HEAD can be DEADLY.  It MAY be used to stimulate GOING, GOING, GONE IMPLANT BATTERIES.

FAQ: Radiation Risk From Medical Imaging

What You Need to Know About Radiation Risks From CT, Other Scans


By Daniel J. DeNoon
From the WebMD Archives




March 31, 2010 -- In a sometimes contentious two-day meeting, the FDA has put forward its plan to reduce unnecessary radiation exposure from CT scans, nuclear medicine studies, and fluoroscopy.


These medical imaging techniques represent only about a fourth of imaging tests that expose U.S. patients to radiation, but they expose patients to nearly 90% of the radiation they get from medical imaging.


And more and more Americans get these tests every year. They're the main reason why the U.S. population's radiation exposure has almost doubled over the last 20 years.


An individual's chance of getting cancer from a single scan is small. But because the scans are so widely used, they cause a considerable amount of harm. One study estimated that the CT scans performed in 2007 are related to some 29,000 future cancers.


What are these tests? What are their risks? When do the tests' benefits outweigh their risks? Here are WebMD's answers to these and other questions.

What are CT scans, nuclear medicine studies, and fluoroscopy?


In a normal X-ray, a person gets a blast of radiation that creates an image on a two-dimensional square of film.

During a computed tomography or CT scan (sometimes called a CAT scan), a rotating device shoots X-rays through the body to produce several cross-sectional images. A computer assembles these images into a 3-D image of the inside of the body. Scans that take more images -- and expose the patient to more radiation -- yield sharper images.


During nuclear medicine studies, such as positron emission tomography or PET scans, the patient is given a small amount of a radioactive substance. A detector then views an image of this "radiotracer" as it moves through the body.


During fluoroscopy, a device passes continuous X-rays through the body to yield a real-time moving image.



How much radiation does a person get from medical imaging studies?




Getting a CT scan gives a patient as much radiation as 100 to 800 chest X-rays.


Getting a nuclear medicine study exposes a patient to as much radiation as 10 to 2,050 chest X-rays.

Getting a fluoroscopic procedure exposes a patient to as much radiation as 250 to 3,500 chest X-rays.


For perspective, a person gets the equivalent of one chest X-ray from normal background radiation in about two and a half days. In 2.7 years, people get as much radiation just from being on the planet as they do from an abdominal CT scan.



What are the risks of medical imaging procedures?



Even when done properly, medical imaging procedures can damage DNA and increase a person's lifetime risk of cancer.


In the U.S., a person has a one-in-five lifetime risk of cancer. Imaging can increase this risk.



For example, a 2009 study estimates that a CT coronary angiography given at age 40 will cause cancer in one in 270 women and in one in 600 men. The risk is about twice as high for a CT scan given at age 20 and about half as high for a CT scan given at age 60.


But scans aren't always given properly. Without taking the right precautions, a patient may be exposed to too much radiation, thereby increasing the risk without increasing the benefit.






How Long Does It Take for Hair to Grow Back After Radiation?

Radiation therapy, the administration of energy waves often referred to as ionizing radiation, is a common treatment for cancer patients. The radiation therapy targets rapidly growing and dividing cells, which can include normal, healthy cells, especially cells in hair roots that grow quickly. The amount of time required for hair to grow again varies depending on the intensity of the radiation treatments.


Where


Unlike chemotherapy, which causes systemic (all-over) hair loss, radiation therapy only causes the hair in the specific area of treatment to fall out. So if, for example, you receive radiation on your pelvis area, your pubic hair may fall out, but not the hair on your head. Radiation therapy to the brain is likely to cause the hair on your scalp to fall out.



Why


The high-energy waves (X-rays, gamma rays or electron beams) administered in radiation therapy damage the genetic material in cancer cells by breaking a piece of the DNA (deoxyribose nucleic acid) and preventing the cell from dividing and growing. It also affects nearby healthy cells, including cells in hair follicles. When the cells of the hair follicles cease to grow and divide, the hair falls out. The more potent the radiation, the quicker the hair will fall out, and the longer it will take to grow back.



When

You will notice hair beginning to fall out about 3 weeks after your initial radiation treatment. It will not fall out all at once, but will occur throughout a week or two. How quickly you lose your hair also depends upon the strength of your radiation. The stronger the radiation, the more hair follicles are affected in fewer treatment sessions.



Regrowth


Hair loss due to radiation therapy can be temporary or permanent. In lower doses of radiation, the hair will generally grow back in 3 to 6 months after the final radiation session. The new hair may be a different color or texture than your old hair. High doses of radiation may cause permanent damage to the hair follicles, causing permanent hair loss.



Management



Hair loss on any part of your body, but especially on the head, can be distressing. To minimize the damage to your hair and scalp, use gentle shampoos and avoid using any harsh chemical products such as colors, gels or mousse. Gently pat your hair dry instead of rubbing, and do not use curling irons, hair dryers, hair bands, clips or curlers.


Many people find it easier to take control of their hair loss by shaving their heads themselves. Either way, be sure to protect your scalp in the months until your hair grows back.

In summer of 2019 during PSYCHO-SEXUAL TORTURE I heard TAG NOSY NEIGHBORS through FEEDBACK saying they were installing new cameras in walls and sliding ramps to move them up and down. So, BANGING AND BUMPING with NOSY NEIGHBORS talking made it clear a different CAMERA SET-UP was happening. I was still thinking at that time this process was all about 24/7 illegally streaming VIDEO PORN ------so, I was PROTECTING MY STUFF from exposure to these video surveillance.



What was actually happening was the installation of a FLUOROSCOPY CAMERA------that camera could have been installed in my ceiling but after a while the IMAGES from 10 feet away would not have been useful. My exposure to FLUOROSCOPY CAMERAS could have been a year before NOSY NEIGHBORS AND THE GANG built the structures in the wall between BEDROOM AND BATHROOM to allow FLUOROSCOPY CAMERAS to image at BED LEVEL.

THIS NOT DONE EVERY DAY----THIS IS NOT DONE EVERY WEEK ----THIS NOT EVEN DONE EVERY MONTH.



The exposure to FLUOROSCOPY RADIATION is the most harmful----it is IONIZING RADIATION----damages your DNA and soft tissue and if NOSY NEIGHBORS AND HOSTING SERVER NOSY NEIGHBORS are imaging every NIGHT to monitor IMPLANTS---creating a MOTION PICTURE------of all the implant data.

Fluoroscopy Procedure



What is fluoroscopy?


Fluoroscopy is a study of moving body structures--similar to an X-ray "movie." A continuous X-ray beam is passed through the body part being examined. The beam is transmitted to a TV-like monitor so that the body part and its motion can be seen in detail. Fluoroscopy, as an imaging tool, enables physicians to look at many body systems, including the skeletal, digestive, urinary, respiratory, and reproductive systems.



Fluoroscopy may be performed to evaluate specific areas of the body, including the bones, muscles, and joints, as well as solid organs, such as the heart, lung, or kidneys.




Other related procedures that may be used to diagnose problems of the bones, muscles, or joints include X-rays, myelography ( myelogram ), computed tomography ( CT scan ), magnetic resonance imaging ( MRI ), and arthrography.


What are the reasons for a fluoroscopy?


Fluoroscopy is used in many types of examinations and procedures, such as barium X-rays , cardiac catheterization , arthrography (visualization of a joint or joints), lumbar puncture , placement of intravenous (IV) catheters (hollow tubes inserted into veins or arteries), intravenous pyelogram , hysterosalpingogram, and biopsies.



Fluoroscopy may be used alone as a diagnostic procedure, or may be used in conjunction with other diagnostic or therapeutic media or procedures.


In barium X-rays , fluoroscopy used alone allows the doctor to see the movement of the intestines as the barium moves through them and allows the doctor to position the patient for spot imaging. In cardiac catheterization , fluoroscopy is used as an adjunct to enable the doctor to see the flow of blood through the coronary arteries in order to evaluate the presence of arterial blockages. For intravenous catheter insertion, fluoroscopy assists the doctor in guiding the catheter into a specific location inside the body.


Other uses of fluoroscopy include, but are not limited to, the following:


  • Locating foreign bodies
  • Image-guided anesthetic injections into joints or the spine
  • Percutaneous vertebroplasty . A minimally invasive procedure used to treat compression fractures of the vertebrae of the spine


There may be other reasons for your doctor to recommend fluoroscopy.



What are the risks of fluoroscopy?


You may want to ask your doctor about the amount of radiation used during the procedure and the risks related to your particular situation. It is a good idea to keep a record of your past history of radiation exposure, such as previous scans and other types of X-rays, so that you can inform your doctor. Risks associated with radiation exposure may be related to the cumulative number of X-ray examinations and/or treatments over a long period of time.


If you are pregnant or suspect that you may be pregnant, you should notify your doctor. Radiation exposure during pregnancy may lead to birth defects.



If contrast dye is used, there is a risk for allergic reaction to the dye. Patients who are allergic to or sensitive to medications, contrast media, iodine, or latex should notify their doctor. Also, patients with kidney failure or other kidney problems should notify their doctor.


Certain factors or conditions may interfere with the accuracy of a fluoroscopy procedure. A recent barium X-ray procedure may interfere with exposure of the abdominal or lower back area.


There may be other risks depending on your specific medical condition. Be sure to discuss any concerns with your doctor prior to the procedure.



Medically appropriate fluoroscopy examinations provide clinical benefits that outweigh the risk from the radiation received during the examination. When used by highly trained, board certified radiologists and radiologic technologists, fluoroscopic examinations provide substantial diagnostic benefit to patients and is instrumental in guiding treatment plans. Patients and parents of pediatric patients should talk with their personal physician and their radiologist about the examination.


All fluoroscopy machines are regulared by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and must meet specific criteria to be considered safe and effective. Johns Hopkins radiology equipment meets all federal and state requirements.


How do I prepare for a fluoroscopic exam?


PRECAUTIONS: If you are pregnant or think you may be pregnant, please check with your doctor before scheduling the exam. Other options will be discussed with you and your doctor.


CLOTHING: You may be asked to change into a patient gown. A gown will be provided for you. Lockers are provided to secure your personal belongings. Please remove all piercings and leave all jewelry and valuables at home.


EAT/DRINK: Specific instructions will be provided based on the examination you are scheduled for.
ALLERGIES: Notify the radiologist or technologist if you are allergic or sensitive to medications, contrast dyes or iodine.


What examinations might include fluoroscopy?Exams that might include the use of fluoroscopy as part of the procedure include:



  • Barium enema
  • Barium swallow
  • Enteroclysis
  • Lumbar puncture
  • Interventional radiology procedures
  • Interventional neuroradiology procedures
  • Myelogram
  • Upper gastrointestinal series
  • Small bowel series


During the procedure


Fluoroscopy may be performed on an outpatient basis or as part of your stay in a hospital. Procedures may vary depending on your condition and your doctor's practices.



Generally, fluoroscopy follows this process:
  1. You will be asked to remove any clothing or jewelry that may interfere with the exposure of the body area to be examined.
  2. If you are asked to remove clothing, you will be given a gown to wear.
  3. A contrast substance may be given, depending on the type of procedure that is being performed, via swallowing, enema, or an intravenous (IV) line in your hand or arm.
  4. You will be positioned on the X-ray table. Depending on the type of procedure, you may be asked to assume different positions, move a specific body part, or hold your breath at intervals while the fluoroscopy is being performed.
  5. For procedures that require catheter insertion, such as cardiac catheterization or catheter placement into a joint or other body part, an additional line insertion site may be used in the groin, elbow, or other site.
  6. A special X-ray machine will be used to produce the fluoroscopic images of the body structure being examined or treated.
  7. A dye or contrast substance may be injected into the IV line in order to better visualize the organs or structures being studied.
  8. In the case of arthrography (visualization of a joint), any fluid in the joint may be aspirated (withdrawn with a needle) prior to the injection of the contrast substance. After the contrast is injected, you may be asked to move the joint for a few minutes in order to evenly distribute the contrast substance throughout the joint.
  9. The type of procedure being performed and the body part being examined and/or treated will determine the length of the procedure.
  10. After the procedure has been completed, the IV line will be removed.

While fluoroscopy itself is not painful, the particular procedure being performed may be painful, such as the injection into a joint or accessing of an artery or vein for angiography. In these cases, the radiologist will take all comfort measures possible, which could include local anesthesia, conscious sedation, or general anesthesia, depending on the particular procedure.




After the procedure


The type of care required after the procedure will depend on the type of fluoroscopy that is performed. Certain procedures, such as cardiac catheterization, will likely require a recovery period of several hours with immobilization of the leg or arm where the cardiac catheter was inserted. Other procedures may require less time for recovery.


If you notice any pain, redness, and/or swelling at the IV site after you return home following your procedure, you should notify your doctor as this could indicate an infection or other type of reaction.


Your doctor will give more specific instructions related to your care after the examination or procedure.

What are these tests? What are their risks? When do the tests' benefits
outweigh their risks? Here are WebMD's answers to these and other
questions.

**************************************************************

These are indeed MONSTERS IN THE CLOSET


What are CT scans, nuclear medicine studies, and fluoroscopy?

In a normal X-ray, a person gets a blast of radiation that creates an image on a two-dimensional square of film.



During a computed tomography or CT scan (sometimes called a CAT scan), a rotating device shoots X-rays through the body to produce several cross-sectional images. A computer assembles these images into a 3-D image of the inside of the body.




Scans that take more images -- and expose the patient to more radiation -- yield sharper images.

How much radiation does a person get from medical imaging studies?


Getting a CT scan gives a patient as much radiation as 100 to 800 chest X-rays.
Getting a nuclear medicine study exposes a patient to as much radiation as 10 to 2,050 chest X-rays.
Getting a fluoroscopic procedure exposes a patient to as much radiation as 250 to 3,500 chest X-rays.



For perspective, a person gets the equivalent of one chest X-ray from normal background radiation in about two and a half days. In 2.7 years, people get as much radiation just from being on the planet as they do from an abdominal CT scan.




What are the benefits of medical imaging procedures?


Medical imaging has vastly reduced the need for exploratory surgery and greatly improves the efficiency of many kinds of surgical procedures. These
images have revolutionized the diagnosis of many diseases and conditions, have improved treatment planning, and save lives via image-guided therapies.



'Even though the scans are expensive, they can reduce costs by making hospital stays shorter.


What are the risks of medical imaging procedures'?


Even when done properly, medical imaging procedures can damage DNA and increase a person's lifetime risk of cancer.


In the U.S., a person has a one-in-five lifetime risk of cancer. Imaging can increase this risk.


For example, a 2009 study estimates that a CT coronary angiography given at age 40 will cause cancer in one in 270 women and in one in 600 men. The risk is about twice as high for a CT scan given at age 20 and about half as high for a CT scan given at age 60.



But scans aren't always given properly. Without taking the right precautions, a patient may be exposed to too much radiation, thereby increasing the risk without increasing the benefit.



Lack of standardization compounds the problem. For example, another 2009 study found that in the San Francisco Bay area alone, the dose of radiation given in the same kind of CT scan varied 13-fold between the ighest and lowest dose given by different hospitals.



Moreover, doctors may prescribe scans that aren't medically justified. And since risk from radiation exposure accumulates over a lifetime, certain scans
may not be appropriate for people who've already had a lot of scans.



Cancer isn't the only risk. Accidental exposures to high doses of radiation can cause burns and hair loss . Cataracts can develop in eyes directly exposed to radiation.


What is the FDA doing to reduce the risks of medical imaging?


The FDA's basic plan is twofold: make sure that every scan is medically justified and optimize the radiation dose a patient gets in each procedure.

To accomplish this, the FDA is launching three initiatives.

The first initiative will require the makers of CT and fluoroscope devices to incorporate safeguards into the design of their machines and to provide better training.

Ideas include:




  • Requiring the devices to display, record, and report settings and radiation
    dose

  • Requiring the devices to alert users when the radiation dose exceeds the
    optimal dose for most patients

  • Enhanced training and certification of device users




The second initiative will focus on giving doctors the tools they need to
use medical imaging more wisely. Ideas include:



  • Requiring devices to transmit radiation dose information both to the
    patient's medical record and to a national dose registry.

  • Establishing nationally recognized standard radiation levels for each
    imaging procedure -- including a separate standard for children.






The third initiative will focus on empowering patients. Ideas include:


  • Giving patients a "medical imaging record card" to track their radiation
    exposure from scans.

  • Providing a tool on the FDA web site that will allow patients to track
    their own medical imaging history and to share it with their doctors.
