Source: Health界 The technology of ultrasonic imaging diagnosis has developed in China for about 60 years. With the continuous expansion of application fields and the constant improvement of technology, the demand for ultrasonic diagnostic equipment has maintained a good growth trend. From analog signals to digital signals, from black and white ultrasound to color ultrasound, … Read more
In the daily service of customers, I often encounter inquiries about the meanings of parameters on the ultrasound interface, how to adjust and set the instrument parameters. I have a keen interest in the application of the instrument, and I have organized the following content based on my understanding. With the development and widespread application … Read more
When it comes to cameras, everyone is familiar with them. However, you may not know that cameras have also been used in medicine—specifically, the gamma camera. What is a Gamma Camera The gamma camera is a photographic system that records and displays the distribution of radiation activity within an imaging object. It collects gamma rays … Read more
The Medical Imaging Center of Shaoyang University Affiliated First Hospital currently owns one Siemens 1.5T Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) machine, one Canon 80-slice 160-layer spiral CT, one Siemens 64-slice 128-layer spiral CT, and one GE 16-slice spiral CT. Additionally, there are two Philips flat-panel digital subtraction angiography (DSA) machines (one yet to be installed), one … Read more
Shear wave elastography (SWE) is a new ultrasound technology developed in recent years, widely used in the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of diseases of the liver, breast, thyroid, prostate, and others[1]. The limitation of SWE lies in the algorithms for assessing tissue elasticity, which neglect the impact of tissue viscosity. Viscosity can also characterize the … Read more
MRI Imaging Methods The MRI image is formed by reconstructing signals generated from the resonance of hydrogen nuclei in a magnetic field. Therefore, the concept used in MRI images is “signal,” rather than the “density” concept used in CT images. In MRI images, lesions are described using the term “abnormal signal focus.” Because the imaging … Read more
What is Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging? Various magnetic resonance imaging techniques based primarily on conventional T1WI and T2WI mainly display the morphological structures of human organs or tissues and their signal intensity changes, collectively referred to as conventional MRI examinations or conventional MR imaging sequences. With the development of MRI system hardware and software, various … Read more
In 1979, the concept of using 3D medical imaging, particularly reconstructing physical models from computed tomography data, was first proposed. Although there were no rapid prototyping or 3D printing systems at that time, the idea could be realized through subtractive manufacturing or milling. Before the advent of 3D printers, the primary method for creating prototype … Read more
