Mankind have long been accustomed to all the benefits of civilization: electricity, modern appliances and high standard of living, including a high level of medical care.Today, at the disposal of a person it is the most modern equipment that is easy to detect various violations in the work of bodies and refers to all diseases.Humanity today is actively using Konrad Roentgen's discovery - X-rays, which were later named after him "X".Methods of investigation with the help of X-rays received the widest distribution worldwide.X-rays are defects in the structures of various kinds, scanning passengers' baggage, and most importantly - to protect human health.But a hundred-odd years ago, and people could not imagine that all this is possible.
To date research methods using X-rays are the most popular.A list of studies carried out with the help of X-ray is quite impressive.All of these methods allow the study to determine a very wide range of diseases and enable the early stages to ensure effective treatment.
Despite the fact that in today's world of rapidly developing new methods of studying human health and diagnostic radiographic methods of investigation remain strong position in various surveys.
This article describes the most commonly used radiological methods of research:
• Radiography - the most famous and popular method.It is used to obtain the final image of the body.It uses X-ray sensitive material;
• Fluorography - photographed from the screen x-ray image, it is carried out with the help of special tools.Most often, this method is used for examination of the lungs;
• Tomography - a radiological survey, which is called layering.It is used in the investigation of most body parts and organs;
• X-rays - X-ray image on the screen, this image allows the doctor to examine the organs in the course of their work.
• Contrast radiography - using this method are studying or as separate bodies through the introduction of special substances harmless to the body, but doing the research highly visible target for X-ray studies (the so-called contrast agents).This method is used when other, simpler methods do not provide the necessary diagnostic results.
• In recent years, the rapid development of interventional radiology received.It is about performing surgery that does not require a scalpel, under X-ray control.All of these techniques make surgery less traumatic, efficient and cost-effective.This innovative methods, which in the future will be used in medicine, more and more refined.
Radiology is also one of the key where necessary expert methods.And sometimes - this is the only possible method of diagnosis.Radiology meets the most important requirements of any research:
1. The technique provides high-quality images;
2. equipment safely as possible for the patient;
3. Highly informative reproducibility;
4. The reliability of the equipment;
5. Low maintenance requirements oborulovaniya.
6. Cost Research.
X-ray methods of investigation provided for monitoring doses are safe for human health.Biological effects of small doses of X-rays taken away to ionizing radiation does not have any appreciable harmful effect on organizm.A subject to additional screening, the study becomes even more secure.Radiographic studies will be used by humanity in medicine for many years.
