Basic Imaging Principles
What do Images look like, and why?Image reconstruction: the process of creating an
image from measurement of signals.Image quality determined by: Portray of the true spatial distribution of the
physical parameters. Resolution Noise Contrast Geometric Distortion Artifacts
5
Projection Images:The creation of a two-dimensional image “shadow” of the three dimensional body. X-ray are transmitted through a patient, creating a radiograph.

The three standard orientations of slice (or tomographic) images
Axial, Transaxial, Transverse
CoronalFrontal Sagittal
Oblique Slice: an orientation not corresponding to one of the Standard slice orientation.

Computed Tomography (CT-Computed Tomography (CT-scan)scan)The x-rays are collimated (restricted in their geometric
spread) to travel within an approximate 2-D “Fan beam” Type of CT scan: single-slice CT, helical CT, multislice CT

Nuclear MedicineImaging of gamma rays emitted by radionuclides substance bounded to biochemically active drugs. Example iodine to study thyroid function.

Ultrasound ImagingUltrasound ImagingUses electric-to-acoustic transducers to generate repetitive bursts of high-frequency sound.Time-of-return: give information about locationIntensity: give information about the strength of a reflector

Magnetic Resonance Imaging Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)(MRI)- Hydrogen nucleus align itself with an external Magnetic
field- Radio frequency pulse cause hydrogen atoms to tip a way from the direction of the external magnetic field.- When excitation pulse end, hydrogen nucleus realign itself with the magnetic field and realize a radio-frequency.

HISTORY:71 year old woman recently noticed a left breast lump. DIAGNOSIS:Intracystic papillary carcinoma HISTORY:71 year old woman recently noticed a left breast lump. DIAGNOSIS:
Intracystic papillary carcinoma

Gallbladder US The gallbladder
demonstrates tiny gallstones. There was mild tenderness over the gallbladder. However, there is no evidence of wall thickening or pericholecystic fluid. There was no ultrasound evidence of acute cholecystitis.
