Warning: MRI Health Risk - Fatal, Incurable Illness
If you have had an MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) or MRA (magnetic resonance angiography) with contrast (dye injected into the patient so the doctor can clearly see internal organs, tissues and bones) you may be at risk of a fatal, incurable disease Nephrogenic systemic fibrosis (NSF) also known as nephrogenic fibrosing dermopathy (NFD) occurs in kidney patients who have an MRI with contrast
Universal CRT Replacement Gives New Life to Medical Equipment with Analog Video
A complete line of universal CRT replacements for MRI, CT, US, NM, X-ray, RIS, PACS, Angiography, Surgery and other medical devices is now available from Medical Displays for Less. Hospitals, clinics and imaging centers can now extend equipment ROI and lower replacement costs with new proprietary technology that allows these medical grade displays to adapt and display the signals from GE, Philips, Siemens, Toshiba, Hitachi, Shimadzu, Picker, and many more medical systems.
Fe8 will Create Better Magnetic Resonance Images
An extremely important medical imaging development in detecting diseases is magnetic resonance imaging. This relies on the injection of contrast material to highlight specific tissue or to differentiate between healthy and diseased tissue. The materials used in this procedure are inclined to have the drawback of being either simply constructed and stable within the body but giving low contrast OR very complex in construction and providing sharper contrast but with not as much stability.
Study demonstrates Biospace med's 3D x-ray orthopedic imaging system, 'EOS', "shows better image quality" than Computed Radi
Biospace med announced today that data from a clinical study of its FDA-cleared ‘EOS’ 3D x-ray orthopedic imaging system conducted by a Montreal-based hospital—“EOS: A New Breed of X-Ray Imager Using Low-Dose Slot-Scanning to Achieve High-Quality Images”—showed that the EOS ultra-low-dose orthopedic imaging system makes possible “better image quality” than CR (Computed Radiography) imaging while using nearly 10 times less radiation.”
MRI Compatible Equipment - Protecting You Suite
An MRI isnýt like other forms of imaging Magnetic Resonance Imaging, as the name implies, uses a very high powered magnetic field to produce images of the body much sharper and more detailed than any x-ray ever could
CareCore National Adopts 'Image Gently™' Radiology Standards to Reduce Harmful Childhood Radiation Exposure
CareCore National, a leading benefit management company for diagnostic imaging services, announced today its endorsement of the Image Gently™ initiative, a national campaign led by pediatric radiology experts to minimize children's unnecessary exposure to harmful radiation. Image Gently™, created by the Alliance for Radiation Safety in Pediatric Imaging, a group of more than 30 medical professional societies, underscores the need for the medical community to pay special attention when ordering radiological imaging services such as CT scans for children, due to the heightened risks of cancer and other health problems associated with over-radiation.
