Ukufanekisa kanye ne-radiology

I-Radiology igatsha lezokwelapha elisebenzisa ubuchwepheshe be-imaging ukuxilonga nokwelapha izifo.

I-Radiology ingahlukaniswa ngezindawo ezimbili ezihlukene, i-radiology yokuxilonga kanye ne-radiology yokungenelela. Odokotela abagxile kwi-radiology babizwa ngama-radiologists.

I-RADIOLOGY YOKUHLOLA

I-radiology yokuxilonga isiza abahlinzeki bokunakekelwa kwezempilo ukubona izakhiwo ngaphakathi komzimba wakho. Odokotela abagxile ekuchazweni kwalezi zithombe babizwa ngama-radiologists wokuxilonga. Usebenzisa izithombe zokuxilonga, i-radiologist noma abanye odokotela kaningi:

• Thola imbangela yezimpawu zakho
• Bheka ukuthi umzimba wakho usabela kahle kanjani ekwelashweni okutholayo ngesifo noma isimo sakho
• Isikrini sezifo ezahlukahlukene, njengomdlavuza webele, umdlavuza wekoloni, noma isifo senhliziyo

Izinhlobo ezivame kakhulu zokuhlolwa kwe-radiology zokuxilonga zifaka:

• I-computed tomography (CT), eyaziwa nangokuthi i-computerised axial tomography (CAT) scan, kufaka phakathi i-CT angiography
• I-Fluoroscopy, kufaka phakathi i-GI ephezulu ne-barium enema
• I-Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) kanye ne-magnetic resonance angiography (MRA)
• Isimame
• Umuthi wenuzi, ofaka izivivinyo ezinjengokuthwetshulwa kwamathambo, ukuskena kwe-thyroid, kanye nokuhlolwa kwengcindezi yenhliziyo i-thallium
• Ama-x-ray angenalutho, afaka i-x-ray yesifuba
• I-Positron emission tomography, ebizwa nangokuthi i-PET imaging, i-PET scan, noma i-PET-CT uma ihlanganiswa ne-CT
• I-Ultrasound

I-RADIOLOGY YANGAPHAKATHI

Ama-radiologists angenelela odokotela abasebenzisa izithombe ezifana ne-CT, i-ultrasound, i-MRI, ne-fluoroscopy ukusiza ukuhola izinqubo. Ukucabanga kuyasiza kudokotela lapho ufaka ama-catheters, izintambo, nezinye izinsimbi namathuluzi amancane emzimbeni wakho. Lokhu kuvumela ukusikeka okuncane (ukusikeka).

Odokotela bangasebenzisa lobu buchwepheshe ukuthola noma ukwelapha izimo cishe kunoma iyiphi ingxenye yomzimba esikhundleni sokubheka ngqo ngaphakathi komzimba wakho ngesilinganiso (ikhamera) noma ngokuhlinzwa okuvulekile.

Odokotela be-radiologists abangenelelayo bavame ukubandakanyeka ekwelapheni umdlavuza noma izicubu, ukuvimba emithanjeni nasemithanjeni, i-fibroids esibelethweni, ubuhlungu beqolo, izinkinga zesibindi, nezinkinga zezinso.

Udokotela ngeke enze ukusikeka noma okuncane kakhulu. Akudingeki uhlale esibhedlela ngemuva kwenqubo. Iningi labantu lidinga umuthi olinganiselayo (imithi yokusiza uphumule).

Izibonelo zezinqubo ze-radiology ezibandakanyayo zifaka:

• I-Angiography noma i-angioplasty nokubekwa kwe-stent
• Ukuhlanganiswa ukulawula ukopha
• Ukwelashwa komdlavuza kubandakanya ukufaka isimila usebenzisa i-chemoembolization noma i-Y-90 radioembolization
• Ukudilizwa kwe-tumor nge-radiofrequency ablation, i-cryoablation, noma i-microwave ablation
• I-Vertebroplasty ne-kyphoplasty
• Izinaliti biopsies zezitho ezahlukahlukene, njengamaphaphu nendlala yegilo
• Isifuba sesifuba, siqondiswa ngamasu we-stereotactic noma we-ultrasound
• Ukuhlanganiswa komthambo wesibeletho
• Ukondla ukubekwa kwebhubhu
• Ukubekwa kwe-venous access catheter, njengamachweba nama-PICCs
