1) What is CT Scan? CT / CAT Scan also known as (Computer Tomography Scan / Computer Axial Tomography ) is a type of machine that uses X-rays waves a powerful radiating wave from the electromagnetic spectrum. It also uses computing machines to produce detailed images of the inside of a body to perform a full thorough body check to a precise consistency. It gives a clear three dimensional view of the soft tissues like the blood vessels, muscles, and also our vital organs. There are many purposes

search for happiness. One character named Godfrey Cass is disappointed in his search when relying on wealth and luck, instead of love, does not lead him to happiness. Another character, Silas Marner, looks first to a pile of gold that only consumes his life until he starts loving and caring for a child, who finally brings him happiness.

One such situation continually represented is the knowledge that Eppie is the daughter of Godfrey Cass and his secret wife who died in the snow. The fact that no one knows of this situation, besides Godfrey, are the source of much irony and eventually the climax of the novel. Another example f dramatic irony is that the reader knows, from the minute of its occurrence, that the robbery is the doing

Having held it for two years, it was only because of the inability of the Turks
What is radiation? Radiation is energy that comes from a source and travels in the form of waves or high speed particles. Radiation is mainly released from atoms, which is the smallest particle of matter. When radiation is emitted, it excites the orbiting electrons in atoms and causes the electrons to vibrate, which emits the energy. There are two types of radiation, namely Ionizing radiation and non-ionizing radiation. Non- ionizing radiation has a low energy level and therefore cannot change
Throughout out Canadian history, there have been many factors that has influenced diagnosis and treatments in healthcare. During the events of the First World War, as many as 395,084 soldiers of the 418,606 that were sent overseas were hospitalized for the cause of various diseases. This then led Canadian specialists to discover many health problems such as venereal disease (sexually transmitted infections), tuberculosis, bad teeth, and flat feet, which prompted for a nationwide health department
It is hard to imagine how life would be without all the medical advancements, medicines, and treatments that are available in 21st century. As I was learning about 20th and 21st century medicine, I was surprised to know the engineer’s role towards the medical field and it isn’t an understatement to say that, “Without the engineers, the health care system wouldn’t be this advanced”. It is not just the biomedical engineers, but also the other branches of engineers could be credited for their work with
DIGITAL IMAGE PROCESSING Abstract This paper describes the basic technological blee of Digital Image Processing . Image processing is basically classified in to three categories: The Rectification and Restoration, Enhancement and Information Extraction. The Rectification deals with incipient processing of raw image data to correct for geometric distortion, to calibrate the data radiometrically and to eliminate noise present in the data. The enhancement procedures are applied to image data in order
Radiology Technology Even though technology can fail, billions of lives are saved by medical images because it pinpoints the exact location of a tumor or an object, it views the internal of the body without cutting, and results are quick and visible within minutes. Different medical technologies show’s different views, which comes into effect when diagnosing a patient. Radiology is a branch of medicine that specializes in X-Rays and other radiant energy, which also deals with diagnosis and treatment
Technology That Changed the World The future holds many things, some of those things are new cars, and new airplanes, but there is no one that stops and thinks on where all of that technology came from. The 1970s was a decade that changed many things and especially because of technology. Technology helped peoples life be better by improving, Transportation, Space travel , Computers and Health and Medicine and many more new products. The technology really helped a lot of people and made peoples
“With the advent of computer-enhanced imagery and new interventional techniques, these physicians are able to take an active part in performing therapeutic procedures”(66).
