Breast Sonography refers to a diagnostic ultrasound imaging skill used to examine breast tissue and surrounding structures using high-frequency sound waves. It involves operating ultrasound equipment, capturing and evaluating images, identifying abnormal findings, and supporting clinical assessment and procedures. The skill is applied in healthcare settings to assist with diagnosis, monitor breast conditions, guide interventions, and support follow-up care.
Computed Radiography refers to a digital imaging technique that utilizes photostimulable phosphor plates to capture and store radiographic images. This skill involves the conversion of X-ray images into digital format, allowing for enhanced image processing, storage, and retrieval. Knowledge of Computed Radiography is used in medical and industrial applications to improve diagnostic accuracy and efficiency by facilitating the analysis of images through advanced software tools.
Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA or DEXA) is a specialized imaging technique used to measure bone mineral density, fat mass, and lean mass in the body. It is considered to be the gold standard test for diagnosing osteoporosis and is also used to monitor changes in body composition in athletes and individuals with certain medical conditions. DXA requires specialized training and equipment and is typically performed by trained technicians or radiologists.
Lithotripsy is a medical procedure used to break up kidney stones or gallstones using shock waves. It requires specialized training and expertise to perform safely and effectively. The procedure is non-invasive and typically does not require hospitalization.
Mobile X-Ray Equipment refers to portable imaging systems designed to capture internal images at the point of care. It is used in hospitals, emergency settings, and field environments to support diagnosis and procedural guidance when fixed equipment is not practical. The skill involves operating, positioning, and maintaining the equipment to obtain clear images while following safety and handling procedures.
