Recommended: The discovery of X rays

This video was mostly an introduction into the different modalities of radiology. Each modality was explained in the video and with the new adaptions that technology has provided. I like that they explained why each modality was used and the purpose for using it. The first modality this video discussed was x-ray. Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen discovered x-rays in 1895. The first x-ray was of Roentgen's wife's hand. This new founding was extremely beneficial in the medical world. It showed doctor's what was going on inside their patient's body without them having to open the patient up. The second modality was angiography. The video stated that this branch of radiology has been around since 1951, and has become very popular since then. Angiography

  • Shock Doctrine Essay

    803 Words  | 2 Pages

    The movie Shock Doctrine revolves around the concept of the same name. The film begins by discussing psychological research on the effects of shock therapy. It is evident that a person under extreme stress and anxiety commonly experienced during a crisis functions and performs inadequately. It is noted that the studies are conducted by a man by the name of Milton Friedman, from the University of Chicago; the studies took place in the past, and some of the subjects are still recovering in the aftermath. From this research, interrogation techniques were learned and the concept of the shock doctrine was formed. Essentially through causing a crisis, the population of a country can be shocked into complying with accepting laws that favors the United States and capitalism. This theory coexists with Friedman’s belief in that government regulation is bad, and through a crisis a country would better itself with deregulation. The video uses Chile as an example and shows how America allowed a crisis to occur in Chile, through coups, interrogations and subterfuge. In the end a new government is formed that allows capitalism. Unfortunately afterwards violence and riots occur, as the rich gain most of the wealth and poverty rises. In addition to Chile, Argentina, Russia and even Iraq underwent the shock doctrine. Almost in every account, poverty rises and violence ends up erupting. The movie ends by showing how the US was in the process of the shock doctrine, and still is but the population has taken notice. Protests such as Occupy Wall Street are some of the initiatives necessary to bring awareness to the problems of class inequalities in order to prevent capitalism from benefitting the rich and increasing the wealth gap among the classes.

  • Candid Camera Analysis

    1112 Words  | 3 Pages

    As Allen Funt explains in his interview with Philip Zimbardo, Candid Camera hinges on five central ideas: the first being the reversal of normal or anticipated procedures. For this keystone, Funt provides the amusing example, “You pull your car into a gas station for a routine tank of gas and a five-man pit crew emerges and acts like it’s an Indy 500 pit stop.” The second idea is the exposing of basic human weaknesses in scenarios where “people try to hide the fact that they don’t understand something”—like the never-ending oil dipstick or the vertically challenged elevator. The third idea the show caters to is granting people the opportunity to fulfill a fantasy. Says Funt in relation to this idea, “We show people talking back to a traffic

    The Frontline video titled, “A Soldier’s Heart” describes what life is like as a soldier with mental illness. In the video you take a look at multiple lives that were affected by the negative conditions that derive from being enlisted in the war. The video begins by taking a look at the life of Rob Sarra, an Iraq War veteran. He described how an event that took place during the war, affected his life dramatically. Before going into combat one day, his unit was warned that there were suicide bombers in the area, and to be on the lookout for them. So when a woman appeared, walking with a bag under her arm, his initial reaction was to either kill her or be killed. She continued to walk toward a vehicle of soldiers, after they ordered her to stop. Rob then continued to aim his gun and take the shot. After he took the shot, the Marine’s near by continued to unload their weapons on the woman also. However, when all was said and done he came to the realization that what she was holding was not a bomb, but a white flag. Instantly, he was surrounded by guilt and shame because he was the reason for the death of a civilian. Rob decided

    The Three Here’s for Cooking The romantic comedy, Today’s Special, expressed the worries of Indian parents becoming at ease. Also, expressed the struggles a parent faces in search of a better life, the passion and dedication going unnoticed in the work field, and the connection between friends, a lover, and family.

I have had such an adventurous experience in this care unit. There are many different people come in this department such as doctors, registered nurses, radiologic technicians, and of course that patients. It was amazing to see what each individual person in the department had to deal with and the obstacles they had to overcome for the day. In the Radiology Observation Care Unit the clinical staff would take care of patients for a few hours before and after procedures. Before a patient would come in they would get a bed ready with sheets and a pillow to make the patient comfortable. When the patient arrives
