Guaranteed Pass
ventriculostomy - ANS ✔a catheter placed in one of the lateral ventricles
of the brain to measure intracranial pressure and allow for drainage of fluid
CT SCAN - ANS ✔a series of x-ray photographs taken from different angles
and combined by computer into a composite representation of a slice
through the body. Also called a CAT scan.
CT Angiogram - ANS ✔A computerized tomography (CT) coronary
angiogram is an imaging test to look at the arteries that supply your heart
muscle with blood. CT angiograms don't use a catheter threaded through
your blood vessels to your heart. Instead, a coronary CT angiogram relies
on a powerful X-ray machine to produce images of your heart and heart
vessels
CT perfusion - ANS ✔-angiography= full brain coverage (good for
localization of clot), more radiation
-perfusion= requires dedicated software, limited area of brain
imaged, measures cerebral blood flow/blood volume; can identify
"penumbra"
MRI - ANS ✔magnetic resonance imaging

, a technique that uses magnetic fields and radio waves to produce
computer-generated images that distinguish among different types of
soft tissue; allows us to see structures within the brain.
venogram - ANS ✔an X ray of a vein injected with a radiopaque contrast
medium
angiogram - ANS ✔an X-ray representation of blood vessels made after
the injection of a radiopaque substance
perfusion - ANS ✔The supply of oxygen to and removal of wastes from
the cells and tissues of the body as a result of the flow of blood through the
capillaries.
cerebral angiography - ANS ✔X-ray record of blood vessels in the brain
after intravenous injection of contrast material.
lumbar puncture - ANS ✔removal by centesis of fluid from the
subarachnoid space of the lumbar region of the spinal cord for diagnostic
or therapeutic purposes
transcranial doppler - ANS ✔intracranial hemodynamic can be
evaluated uses sound waves to measure blood flow in the arteries,
evaluates cerebral vasospasm or narrowing of arteries.
transthoracic echocardiogram - ANS ✔ultrasound of heart
transesophageal echocardiogram - ANS ✔ultrasound that examines
cardiac function and structure by using an ultrasound probe placed in the
oesophagus, which provides views of the heart structures
