Bone Photography: How to conduct the investigation and analysis of the results
Bone scan, sponsored by Radiois Bone Imaging, is an investigation conducted to identify new places where construction or demolition of body bones is performed. The X -ray Orthopedic investigation is more successful than X Ray because it can diagnose the changes in the early stage. And a bone photography examination with radioactive isotopes is a core radiological examination that can be wiped and photographed by all bones in the body, or only specific areas as needed. When is the examination performed? Bone photography is performed in different cases with radioisotopes, including: determining the place of incomprehensible pain in the bones, such as: chronic lower back pain. Diagnosis of bone growth in improper places, such as: back, knee or foot legs. Doubt to a broken leg, and it is not possible to see it through ordinary radiography. Diagnosis of bone cancer, due to incomprehensible pain that can be caused by primary tumors in the bone or cartilage. Doubts of bone damage to the high body temperature without an explanation for this, or the flatulence and redness of the elbow, or the presumption of the presence of inflammation or infection. The risk category is performed by radioactive bones for different causes and diseases. Diseases associated with diseases that need bone bone that depict radioactive isotopes, the following: fractions. Inflammatory diseases. Infection. Initial cancer crops of bone or cartilage. The distribution of cancer from a source outside the bone, such as breast cancer, lung cancer and bladder cancer. How to conduct the investigation is the most important thing that is important to know about the investigation into the following: The patient should empty the bladder, remove the jewelry and most clothes before photographing the leg. The bone examination is performed by radiotherapy, while the results analyze a specialist in nuclear medicine. A radioactive substance is usually injected by a radioactive technichium a few hours before the investigation. The examination is conducted when the patient lies in the file in a closed room while the livestock device is on top and near. Anyone may only enter the examination room and the patient and radiological technician. The recording device can move according to the area to be photographed until a complete picture of the bones of the body is taken. The patient may be asked to move or in some cases to move according to the need. This investigation takes 30 – 60 minutes. The patient is then expected to drink plenty of water. General warnings can cause pain and swelling of the injection site, and injection can occur with an overdose of the radioactive substance, but these are rare cases. During pregnancy: The investigation should not be conducted during pregnancy. Breastfeeding: The examination should not be performed during breastfeeding, and the breastfeeding woman should stop breastfeeding for a certain period by the doctor. Children and babies get a small dose of radioactive material. Elderly: There are no special recommendations. Management: There are no special recommendations. Medicines affecting the result of the investigation are no special recommendations. Results -Analysis of the result is intact: If the distribution of radioactive material is homogeneous and equal, without the presence of more or less absorbent areas of the radioactive substance. The result is improper: if it appears to be dark, or bright spots in specific places.
