Nā Kiʻi Kiʻi Kiʻekiʻe a me nā Mea Hoʻohana

ʻO ka CT scan (computed tomography) kahi ʻenehana kiʻi lāʻau e hoʻohana ana i nā kukui X a me ka ʻenehana kamepiula e hana i nā kiʻi kikoʻī o ke kino.Hiki i nā kauka ke ʻike i nā ʻāpana like ʻole o ke kino, ʻo ia hoʻi nā iwi, nā ʻiʻo, nā ʻāpana a me nā kīʻaha koko, a kōkua i ka ʻike ʻana i nā kūlana e like me nā maʻi ʻaʻai, nā haʻihaʻi, nā maʻi a me ke koko o loko.I ka wā o ka CT scan, e moe ana ka mea maʻi ma luna o ka papaʻaina a neʻe i loko o kahi scanner pōʻai nui e lawe i nā kiʻi X-ray he nui mai nā kihi like ʻole a hoʻohui iā lākou e hana i kahi kiʻi kikoʻī kikoʻī o ke kino.ʻO ka nui o ka radiation i ka wā o ka CT scan ke manaʻo nui ʻia he palekana, akā hiki ke hoʻonui i ka nui o ka maʻi kanesa.

Hoʻohana nā limahana mālama ola i kēia mau kiʻi e loiloi a kōkua i ka ʻike ʻana i kahi wahi maʻi, e hana i kahi hoʻolālā lapaʻau pilikino no ka mea maʻi.Hoʻohui pinepine ʻia kēia me kahi papahana nānā olakino maʻamau.

I kēia mau lā, ma ke ʻano he mea hana diagnostic radiology maikaʻi a ikaika.

Ma waho aʻe o ia mea, aia nā ʻano hana kiʻi lāʻau ʻē aʻe ʻekolu: MRI, PET CT, Ultrusound 

MRI scan:

ʻO ka MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) scan kahi ʻenehana kiʻi lapaʻau e hoʻohana ana i nā māla magnetic ikaika a me nā hawewe lekiō e hana i nā kiʻi kikoʻī o nā hale i loko o ke kino.Hoʻohana pinepine ʻia e nānā i ka lolo, ka iwi kuamoʻo, nā hono, a me nā mea palupalu ʻē aʻe.I ka wā o ka MRI scan, e moe ana ka mea maʻi ma luna o kahi pākaukau e paheʻe ana i loko o kahi scanner cylindrical nui.Hoʻohana ka poʻe ʻimi i nā māla magnetic ikaika a me nā hawewe lekiō e hana i nā kiʻi kikoʻī o ke kino.ʻAʻole e like me ka CT scans, ʻaʻole hoʻohana ka MRI scans i nā kukui X a no laila ʻoi aku ka palekana no nā poʻe maʻi e pili ana i ka ʻike ʻana i ka radiation.ʻAʻole invasive a ʻeha ke kaʻina hana, akā pono nā mea maʻi e noho mālie a hiki i hoʻokahi hola ke hana ʻia ka scan.Hoʻohana pinepine ʻia nā scans MRI e ʻike i ke ʻano o nā kūlana olakino, e like me nā ʻōpū, nā ʻeha, nā maʻi a me nā maʻi degenerative.

PET CT:

ʻO ka PET (positron emission tomography) scan he ʻano hana kiʻi lāʻau lapaʻau e hoʻohana ana i kahi liʻiliʻi o nā mea radioactive (tracer) e hana i kahi kiʻi ʻekolu-dimensional o ke kino.Hiki i ka PET scans ke ʻike i nā loli i ka hana metabolic cellular, hiki ke kōkua i ka hoʻopaʻa ʻana a me ka nānā ʻana i ka piʻi ʻana o nā maʻi he nui, e like me ke kanesa, nā maʻi neurological, a me ka maʻi puʻuwai.I ka wā o ka PET scan, hoʻokomo ʻia ka mea maʻi me kahi tracer, e kūkulu ʻia ana ma kahi o ke kino e nānā ʻia nei.A laila e moe ka mea maʻi ma luna o ka papaʻaina a komo i kahi scanner circular nui, e ʻike i ka tracer a hana i nā kiʻi e pili ana i ka hana metabolic i loko o ke kino.Hoʻohui pinepine ʻia nā PET scans me nā hoʻokolohua kiʻi ʻē aʻe, e like me CT a i ʻole MRI scans, e hāʻawi i ka ʻike kikoʻī e pili ana i ke ʻano o loko a me ka hana o ke kino.Mālama ʻia ke kaʻina hana, akā loaʻa nā mea maʻi i kahi liʻiliʻi o ka radiation mai ka tracer.ʻAʻole invasive ka PET scans a hiki i hoʻokahi hola e hoʻopau ai.

ʻO ke kani kani kani:

ʻO ka ultrasound scan, i kapa ʻia hoʻi he sonography, he ʻenehana kiʻi lāʻau e hoʻohana ana i nā hawewe kani kiʻekiʻe e hana i nā kiʻi o loko o ke kino.I ka wā o ka ultrasound scan, hoʻokomo ʻia kahi mea paʻa lima i kapa ʻia he transducer ma ka ʻili a i ʻole i loko o kahi lua kino, a hoʻouna ʻo ia i nā nalu kani ma o ka ʻiʻo.Paʻa nā hawewe kani i nā ʻāpana o loko a me nā ʻiʻo, kahi e ʻike ʻia ai lākou e kahi transducer, e hana ana i kahi kiʻi manawa maoli ma kahi nānā kamepiula.Hoʻohana pinepine ʻia ka ultrasound scans e nānā i nā kino e like me ka puʻuwai, ate, puʻupaʻa, a me nā ʻāpana hānau, a me ka nānā ʻana i ka ulu ʻana o ka fetal i ka wā hāpai.He kaʻina hana palekana, ʻaʻole hoʻohana i ka radiation ionizing a palekana no nā wahine hāpai a me nā pēpē hānau ʻole.Eia kekahi, hiki ke hoʻohana ʻia e alakaʻi i nā kaʻina hana invasive liʻiliʻi, e like me ka biopsies tumor a i ʻole ka hoʻokomo ʻana i ka catheter.ʻAʻole ʻeha ke kaʻina hana a lawe maʻamau i 20 a 60 mau minuke e hoʻopau ai, ma muli o ka wahi e nānā ʻia ai.
