The AP dimension on an x-ray refers to the Anteroposterior dimension, which measures the distance from the front to the back of the body or structure being imaged. It provides information about the size and position of internal organs or bones.

A lethal dose exposure of X-rays to the body can cause severe damage to cells and tissues, leading to symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and loss of hair. In severe cases, it can result in organ failure, bone marrow suppression, and death.

For x-ray examination of the lower gastrointestinal tract, the medical team typically consists of a radiologist, a radiologic technologist who operates the x-ray machine, and a nurse or medical assistant who assists the patient during the procedure. The radiologist interprets the images obtained during the examination to make a diagnosis, while the technologist ensures proper positioning and image quality.

Materials with high atomic numbers, such as lead, and dense substances like bone or metal, can block the passage of x-rays due to their ability to absorb and scatter the radiation. The level of attenuation depends on factors like the thickness and density of the material through which the x-rays are passing.

PMS on jewelry typically stands for Precious Metal Stamp, indicating the type of metal used in the piece, such as gold or silver. It helps verify the authenticity and quality of the metal used in the jewelry.

Periarticular sclerosis is increased bone density near a joint seen on X-ray, often due to chronic joint stress or osteoarthritis. Spurring along the superior acetabulum refers to bony growths at the top of the hip socket, typically seen in conditions like osteoarthritis or hip impingement. These findings can indicate degenerative changes in the hip joint.

The medical term is computed tomography (CT) scan. It uses x-rays to create detailed cross-sectional images of the body, allowing for the visualization of internal structures and organs.

The medical term for an X-ray record of the bile vessels is cholangiogram. This diagnostic imaging technique is used to visualize the bile ducts and detect any blockages or abnormalities.

Lucency on medical imaging, such as X-rays, is caused by the passage of X-rays through less dense tissues like air or fluid. This results in those areas appearing darker on the image. Lucency can be seen in conditions like pneumothorax (air in the chest cavity) or pulmonary nodules (small round growth in the lung).

A series of x-ray pictures that show the body in cross section are called CT scans (computed tomography scans). These scans provide detailed images of internal organs and tissues, helping to diagnose medical conditions.

Ask your Doctor, not the Internet! Your Doctor is there to help you. If you Doctor has not explained this, then you need to ask him or her.

X-rays are used for seeing an image of something inside of a item or a person.

DOCTOR :D

Depends on what type of setting you are in. I made $15.00/hour as a Limited Scope tech in a clinic. When I got my RT license, I went to work at a hospital, which has a starting pay as an RT of $19.00/hour. For Limited Scope at the hospital they only pay $13.75/hour.

You can obtain this information by going to www.collegeboard.com/splash/ and using the sites College MatchMaker search engine, or you can also click on the related links below which will take you directly to the site. You can research colleges and universities by name, or by programs of study, or by geographical location, size, or combinations of part or all of them etc. The site will provide you with a list of institutions based on your request. It will give you the schools background, accreditation, degree offerings, programs of study, entrance requirements, tuition and fees, room and board, athletic programs etc. and a link to each institutions official web page. Make sure the college or university has a regional accreditation (most important). Practice navigating this site. It will be well worth the time and effort.

x rays the person who reads x rays is called a radiologist

There are several courses that must be completed to become a certified xray technician. This will normally take abot 2 years to complete.

It generally takes 2-4 years depending on prerequisites to become an Xray technician. For a 4 year programs, it averages to about 120 credit hours of classes.

You can attend Raymond Walters for a two year degree in radiology. That is the best I can do for you. It is extremely hard to find that field of study in the city of Cincinnati. You may want to explore a larger city with more opportunites, like Houston Tx. They have an extremely large Medical Center Nieghborhood. Good Luck. By the way. RW costs about $5,000.00 per year. Pretty good. $10,000.00 for the Associates Degree.

All depends on the type of x-ray. Its a wide range.

The average starting x-ray technician earns close to $34 dollars an hour. So do the math =)

I would wonder why you want a "cheap x ray for your dog" - radiographs (x-rays) are typically done to diagnose a structural problem such as a broken leg or an abdominal mass. "Cheap" is probably not the way you want to go with this - you need your dog to be properly positioned to get an image that worth more than the paper it's printed on, and you want a veterinarian who is skilled in reading and interpreting these images. If your dog could use a radiograph for diagnostic purposes but you have financial concerns, talk with your veterinarian about them BEFORE having the radiographs done - veterinarians are well aware of the financial realities for their owner/clients and most are happy to work with you to figure out how to provide the best care you can afford for your dog.

Yes X Rays can damage cell phones , as it is always radiation from the X Ray machine , they both will clash in the cell.

The idea is that, due to the small wavelength of X-rays, atoms can serve as a diffraction grid - causing diffraction patterns. (If you don't know about diffraction, I suggest you search in the questions for "diffraction", or ask a separate question for diffraction.) Crystals are good for this, because of their regular structure.
