3d image Often combined with CT and MRI work by detecting how well certain part of body is working Fluorodeoxyglucose most used radiotrace

Question 36

PET Scans (positron emission tomography)

Answer 36

3d image Often combined with CT and MRI work by detecting how well certain part of body is working Fluorodeoxyglucose most used radiotracer Can identify cancer as use glucose faster Radiation risk Radiotracer leaves body in few hours

Question 37

MRI (magnetic resonance imaging)

Answer 37

Uses strong magnetic fields and radiowaves - detailed images Most of body is water - hydrogen atom is proton = tiny magnet MRI protons line up in same direction radiowaves cause knock protons off alignment and turning off aligns them again This send signals picked up by receivers
