TürkçeRadiodiagnostics
What is Radiodiagnostics?
Radiodiagnostics is a medical imaging method that helps diagnose the disease by scanning organs with X-rays and energy release method. In the meantime, high sound waves and very strong magnetic fields are used. Radiodiagnostic, that is, radiological techniques, are examined in 2 parts. The first is diagnostic radiology. It covers diagnostic radiology imaging techniques. The other is interventional radiology. They are therapeutic techniques such as angiography by applying anesthesia.
What are the Devices Covered by Radiodiagnostics?
Radiodiagnostics include X-ray, echocardiography, bone densitometry, mammography, computed tomography, obstetric us, obstetric doppler, magnetic resonance (MR), ultrasound, radionuclide imaging devices.
What are the Diseases That Can Be Detected by Radiodiagnostic Methods?
With ultrasonic devices, it is possible to control the baby during pregnancy, heart examination in cardiology diseases, detection of stones in the gallbladder, breast tumors, cyst control. With the magnetic resonance method, imaging of the head region, lung imaging, findings that cannot be visualized with x-rays in the hand and foot and more can be detected.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are Radiodiagnostic Imaging Methods Harmful?
Since imaging is performed with X-rays, it would not be correct to say that it is completely healthy. However, today's technology has reduced the harmful size of the rays to a minimum by breaking them down to a great extent. Without radiodiagnostic imaging methods, which are the most reliable method in the light of science, it will be very difficult and sometimes impossible to diagnose. Moreover, our specialist physicians do not consider it necessary unless there is a necessity. X-ray is not recommended in case of pregnancy, and there is no harm in MR.
What Should Be Done Before Using Radiodiagnostic Imaging Methods?
Solid food consumption should be stopped, preferably 4 hours before.
What Should Be Considered During Radiodiagnostic Imaging Methods?
The patient must be present in the imaging room on time and there should be no metal objects on him. If metal is found, it will reflect in the image and healthy results will not be obtained. In addition, it may be necessary to take deep breaths and hold breaths from time to time in accordance with the instructions of the radiologist.
Is Radiodiagnostic Examinations Take a Time?
It takes about 15 minutes.
When Can I Get the Results of Radiodiagnostic Examinations?
You can reach your doctor immediately after a radiology specialist's examination or during the examination.
