Kuyini ukuskena kwe-gallium?

I-gallium scan isivivinyo sokuxilonga esibheka ukutheleleka, ukuvuvukala nezicubu. Ukuskena lokhu kwenziwa emnyangweni wezokwelapha wenuzi esibhedlela.

IGallium iyinsimbi enemisebe, exutshwe nesisombululo. Ufakwe engalweni yakho futhi udlule egazini lakho, uqoqe ezithweni zakho nasemathanjeni akho. Ngemuva komjovo, umzimba wakho uzoskenwa ukubona ukuthi i-gallium iqoqane kuphi futhi kanjani emzimbeni wakho.

I-Gallium i-radioactive, kepha ingozi yokuvezwa kwemisebe kule nqubo incane kune-X-ray noma i-CT scan. Ngaphandle komjovo, ukuhlolwa akunabuhlungu futhi kudinga ukulungiswa okuncane kakhulu. Kodwa-ke, ukuskena kwenzeka amahora ambalwa ngemuva komjovo we-gallium, ngakho-ke inqubo idinga ukuhlelwa ngokufanele.

Inhloso yokuskena i-gallium

Udokotela wakho angalawula ukuskena kwe-gallium uma unezinhlungu noma umkhuhlane ongachazeki, noma uma kukhona okusolwayo ngomdlavuza. Odokotela futhi bayalela ukuskena njengesivivinyo sokulandelela kubantu abatholakala noma belashelwe umdlavuza. I-scan nayo ingasetshenziselwa ukuhlola amaphaphu.

Inhloso yokuskena i-gallium yamaphaphu

Ekuskeni kwe-gallium yamaphaphu, amaphaphu akho kufanele abukeke ejwayelekile ngosayizi nokuthungwa, futhi kufanele ngabe aqoqe i-gallium encane kakhulu.

Imiphumela engajwayelekile ingakhombisa:

• sarcoidosis, okwenzeka lapho amangqamuzana angapheli okuvuvukala akha amaqhuqhuva ezithweni eziningi
• ukutheleleka okuphefumula
• isimila emaphashini
• i-scleroderma yamaphaphu, okuyisifo esizimele esilimaza izitho ezibalulekile
• umbungu wamaphaphu, okuwukuvinjelwa kwemithambo
• umfutho wegazi ophakeme wamaphaphu, okuyi-high blood pressure emithanjeni yenhliziyo yakho

Lokhu kuhlolwa akusikho ukukhohlisa. Kubalulekile ukuqaphela ukuthi akuwona wonke umdlavuza noma ukukhubazeka okuncane okuzovela ku-gallium scan.

Ukulungiselela ukuskena kwe-gallium

Asikho isidingo sokuzila. Futhi ayikho imithi edingekayo kulolu vivinyo. Kwezinye izimo, kungadingeka ukuthi usebenzise i-laxative noma i-enema ukusula amathumbu akho ngaphambi kokuskena. Lokhu kuzovimbela indle ekuphazamiseni imiphumela yokuhlolwa.

Yazisa udokotela wakho uma ukhulelwe, cabanga ukuthi kungenzeka ukhulelwe, noma unesi. Ukuhlolwa okubandakanya imisebe akunconywa abesifazane abakhulelwe noma abahlengikazi futhi akufanele kwenziwe ezinganeni ezincane kakhulu uma kungenzeka.

Kusebenza kanjani ukuskena kwe-gallium

Le yinqubo yokwelashwa, okusho ukuthi ungaya ekhaya ngosuku lokuhlolwa.

Lapho ufika esibhedlela, uchwepheshe uzofaka isisombululo se-gallium emthanjeni engalweni yakho. Ungase uzwe ukubhoboza okubukhali futhi indawo okujova kuyo ingase ibe yithenda imizuzu embalwa.

Ngemuva komjovo, uzokwazi ukuphuma esibhedlela njengoba i-gallium iqala ukuhamba egazini lakho, iqoqane emathanjeni nasezitho zakho. Uzocelwa ukuba ubuyele esibhedlela ukuze uskene, imvamisa phakathi kwamahora ayisithupha kuya kwangu-48 ngemuva kokuthola umjovo.

Lapho ubuya, uzoshintsha ugqoke isibhedlela, ususe bonke ubucwebe nenye insimbi, bese ulala ngomhlane etafuleni eliqinile. Iskena sizohamba kancane sizungeze umzimba wakho ngenkathi ikhamera ekhethekile ithola lapho i-gallium iqoqe khona emzimbeni wakho. Izithombe zekhamera zibukwa kumonitha.

Inqubo yokuskena ithatha phakathi kwemizuzu engama-30 nengama-60. Kubalulekile ukuhlala unganyakazi ngokuphelele ngesikhathi sokuskena. Iskena asikuthinti, futhi inqubo ayinabuhlungu.

Abanye abantu bathola itafula elinzima lingakhululeki futhi banenkinga yokuhlala bethule. Uma ucabanga ukuthi uzoba nenkinga yokulala unganyakazi, tshela udokotela wakho ngaphambi kokuhlolwa. Udokotela wakho angakunika umuthi wokuthambisa noma wokulwa nokukhathazeka ukusiza.

Kwesinye isikhathi ukuskena kungaphindwa ngezinsuku ezimbalwa. Kulokhu, ngeke udinge imijovo eyengeziwe ye-gallium.

Ukuhumusha imiphumela yakho

I-radiologist izobuyekeza ukuskena kwakho bese ithumela umbiko kudokotela wakho. Imvamisa, i-gallium izoqoqa ku:

• amathambo
• isibindi
• izicubu zesifuba
• ubende
• amathumbu amakhulu

Amaseli womdlavuza nezinye izicubu ezifakwe engozini zithatha i-gallium elula kunezicubu ezinempilo. IGallium eqoqa kwamanye amasayithi ingaba uphawu lokutheleleka, ukuvuvukala, noma isimila.

Ingabe ukuskena kwe-gallium kuyingozi?

Kunobungozi obuncane bezinkinga ezivela ekuvezeni imisebe, kodwa ingaphansi kwengozi ethintekayo kuma-X-ray noma ama-CT scan. Ubungozi bezinkinga buyakhuphuka uma unama-gallium scans amaningi ngokuhamba kwesikhathi.

Inani elilandelanayo le-gallium lingahlala ezicutshini zakho amasonto ambalwa, kepha umzimba wakho uzosusa i-gallium ngokwemvelo.
