Download or read book Naked to the Bone written by Bettyann Kevles and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 1997 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By the late 1960s, the computer and television were linked to produce medical images that were as startling as Roentgen's original X-rays. Computerized tomography (CT) and magnetic reasonance imaging (MRI) made it possible to picture soft tissues invisible to ordinary X-rays. Ultrasound allowed expectant parents to see their unborn children. Positron emission tomography (PET) enabled neuroscientists to map the brain. In this lively history of medical imaging, the first to cover the full scope of the field from X-rays to MRI-assisted surgery, Bettyann Kevles explores the consequences of these developments for medicine and society. Through lucid prose, vivid anecdotes, and more than seventy striking illustrations, she shows how medical imaging has transformed the practice of medicine - from pediatrics to dentistry, neurosurgery to geriatrics, gynecology to oncology. Beyond medicine, Kevles describes how X-rays and the newer technologies have become part of the texture of modern life and culture. They helped undermine Victorian sexual sensibilities, gave courts new forensic tools, provided plots for novels and movies, and offered artists from Picasso to Warhol new ways to depict the human form.

But everything changes one cold January morning when Ellice arrives in the executive suite and finds him dead with a gunshot to his head. And then she walks away like nothing has happened. Why? Ellice has been keeping a cache of dark secrets, including a small-town past and a kid brother who’s spent time on the other side of the law. She can’t be thrust into the spotlight—again. But instead of grieving this tragedy, people are gossiping, the police are getting suspicious, and Ellice, the company’s lone black attorney, is promoted to replace her boss. While the opportunity is a dream-come-true, Ellice just can’t shake the feeling that something is off. When she uncovers shady dealings inside the company, Ellice is trapped in an impossible ethical and moral dilemma. Suddenly, Ellice’s past and present lives collide as she launches into a pulse-pounding race to protect the brother she tried to save years ago and stop a conspiracy far more sinister than she could have ever imagined…

Download or read book Computed Tomography For Learning Technologist written by Isidor Manuat Jardin and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-08-13 with total page 508 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book fills an immense need within the CT technologist education genre. There are many books on CT for techs: physics, imaging anatomy and case studies, and scanning primers. There are fewer that take the express role of a hands-on, practical, day-to-day training guide in addition to ensuring that all the key safety and patient care principles are followed. The need became very clear to us in practice as we worked very hard to train many x-rays and nuclear medicine technologists to become CT certified and, more importantly, become expert technologists who can think on the fly, ask their radiologists the right questions, and in all cases help use fundamental principles to improve imaging protocols, contrast bolus timing, radiation dose monitoring management, and post-processing. To be comprehensive Isidor has included our well tested curriculum, which we certainly recommend. In addition, there is great primary material for learning and future reference." Payam Massaband, M.D. Clinical Associate Professor of Radiology Chief, Radiology Service, VA Palo Alto Health Care System This book is intended for learning radiologic technology on OJT, on volunteer status, preparing to take the CT certification exam, and teaching facility mentors (experienced employees or supervisors). It contains material intended for educational purposes only and uses in conjunction with any CT reviewer workbook to enhance the experience of learning. There are 5 chapters in this book: Chapter 1, "Structured 3 Months Daily CT On-the-Job Training for Radiologic Technologist, consists of 3 Months of Daily Training Syllabus, 5 Days a Week for 12 Weeks", contains 4 training modules.
