⩥ Related Diagnostic Procedures. Answer: -MRI
-PET
-CT
,-Angiogram
-WADA
-SPECT
⩥ MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging). Answer: -Uses a magnetic field
and radio waves to create detailed images of the organs and tissues
within your body
-Cross sectional MRI images are used, but it can also be used to produce
3-D images
⩥ PET (Positron Emission Tomography). Answer: -Uses a radioactive
drug (aka tracer) to show the functional activity of tissues and organs
-PET is commonly used in seizure patients to localize the part of the
brain that is causing the seizure activity
-The test evaluates glucose metabolism in the brain using the tracer
(usually FDG)
⩥ CT (Computerized Tomography). Answer: -Combines series of x-ray
images taken from different angles and then creates cross-sectional
images that look at bones, blood vessels and soft tissues.
-Faster than an MRI
⩥ Angiogram. Answer: -Minimally invasive test that uses x-rays and
contrasts to visualize vessels in the brain
, -Can show aneurysm, AVM, blood clot, stroke
-Used with Wada test
⩥ Wada. Answer: -Also known as an intracarotid sodium amobarbital
study
-Looks at language and memory on one side of the brain at a time so that
if the side that controls language or has better memory, the surgeon may
consider further testing prior to epilepsy surgery
⩥ SPECT (Single Photon Emission Computerized Tomography).
Answer: -A radioactive substance (tracer) to evaluate blood flow in the
brain
-An "ictal" SPECT can be done right after a seizure to localize seizure
activity
⩥ What does HIPAA stand for?. Answer: Health Insurance Portability
and Accountability Act of 1996
⩥ HIPAA. Answer: -Mandated significant changes in legal and
regulatory environments governing health payments, benefits, privacy,
etc.
