HEENT stands for “head, eyes, ears, nose, and throat.” If someone is experiencing symptoms that affect those areas, such as sneezing, congestion, and a sore throat, they’ll likely receive a HEENT examination. A HEENT examination is a portion of a physical examination that principally concerns the head, eyes, ears, nose, and throat. The six examination methods used in Read More >>>>

Thyroid Function tests are used to tell if your thyroid gland is functioning properly by measuring the number of thyroid hormones in your blood. They are done by withdrawing blood from a vein in your arm. These blood tests help to diagnose thyroid diseases. The TSH test and the T4 test are the two most Read More >>>>

The TSH test and the T4 test are the two most common thyroid function tests. The TSH test is often done first because it’s the best way to initially test thyroid function. It determines whether a person has hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism. The T4 test is known as the thyroxine test. Thyroid gland function tests are used Read More >>>>

A total iron-binding capacity (TIBC) test is a blood test to see if you have too much or too little iron in your blood measures the blood’s ability to attach itself to iron and transport it around the body. Iron moves through the blood attached to a protein called transferrin. If you have iron deficiency Read More >>>>

A shaded surface display (SSD) test (sometimes called feature-extraction or iso-surfacing) is a surface-rendered 3D image-producing system that provides a realistically looking three-dimensional view image of the surface of a structure of any organ of real interest image view within the acquired volume set. For volume rendering, two transfer functions are defined: one for the Read More >>>>

Contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) is X-ray computed tomography (CT) contrast agents are either iodine or barium-based using radiocontrast to investigate the major artery internal structure, blood clot, plug formation, small vessel block in the heart, and brain, ischemia, stroke, nerve structure, nerve damage, bones structure, bone fracture tumor, cancer in a tendentious joint, ligament, muscle cancer, tumor, Read More >>>>

Single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) is a nuclear medicine imaging technique that frequently uses gamma rays radioisotope or gamma camera to take the 2D or 3D image for diagnosis of major artery internal structure, blood clot, plug formation, small vessel block in the heart and brain, ischemia, stroke, nerve structure, nerve damage, bones structure, bone Read More >>>>

Multi-Slice Computed Tomography (MSCT) alternative to diagnostic coronary angiography is emerging as a non-invasive clinically reliable, fast-growing less invasive imaging technique alternative to conventional angiography, multislice CT angiography has been recognized as the method of choice for detecting and diagnosing head,  neck, and heart vascular disease, abdominal aortic aneurysm, aortic dissection, pulmonary embolism, severe coronary Read More >>>>

VRT Scan Test(Volume Rendering Technique) is used to display a 2D projection of a 3D discretely sampled image. It provides a clearer depiction of the complex anatomy structure which can be used for surgical planning or during discussions with referring physicians. Volume rendering technique (VRT) in three-dimensional reconstruction is a revolutionary 2D and 3D imaging Read More >>>>
