Product Information

X-rays were the first technology that made it possible to see inside the body without having to open it up. Would have given it 5 stars if it had SOME mention of the fact that all bodies are different and not all bodies work in the same way. Because each of the body’s tissue types emits a different frequency of radio waves, the MRI scanner can distinguish between them and build an image based on the data it receives. Ultrasound has little to no effect on the foetus or pregnant woman, so it is much safer than X-rays for use during pregnancy. The scanner tracks the radiation as it moves around the body and processes this information into images.

Time spent inside the machine was reduced by giving the patients bicycle helmets, each fitted with radio receiver coils.

Scanning technologies have various medical functions and provide medical practitioners with different kinds of information. X-ray images were also used during pregnancy until the 1950s, when British physician Alice Stewart (1906–2002) demonstrated a link between foetal X‑rays and childhood cancer. Medical practitioners used early X-ray images to locate broken bones or foreign objects lodged in the body, such as bullets.But in the first episode we meet Hilda, who had one of the worst cases of fibroids her consultant had ever seen. It helps practitioners see inside the small intestine—an area that isn't easily reached with a traditional endoscopy procedure.
