Brain Scan History - How did it all begin?

Ғылым және технология

Brain scan history is one of the most vital parts of technological advancement in 20th Century neuroscience. We're going to look at lots of types of brain scan developments including Xray, CT scan, MRI scan and even ventriculograms (injecting suibstances into brain fluid reservoirs to make them light up on Xray).

    Have you had one of these scans? What was it like?

    Two MRIs (1st was in a 1997 Philips 1.5T “Gyroscan series?” in late December 2008 and 2nd was in a 2011 Siemens Magnetom Skyra 3T in late February 2018) both brain scans. I find the noises extremely satisfying believe it or not! Also had a CT scan 10 years ago this November 8 with a Philips MX-2000 from 2003 but was replaced not too long ago! Diagnostic imaging (especially MRI) is WAY BEYOND incredible, especially for the brain!

    Many. I used to have MRI scans in varying frequencies to help monitor a brain tumour. I mainly remember feeling sick once the drugs were emitted and the somewhat loud noises.

    These videos are so well produced and presented ! As a private tutor who tutors a young lady who wants to be a surgeon - these videos are brilliant in informing and educating next generation of doctors Very interesting as a recipient of excellent neurosurgery at Kings College on two occasions - lumbar and cervical decompression Hope you don’t mind if I use in my science teaching ?

    MRI every six months to check for new/enlarging ms lesions. CT scan didn't show the lesions and diagnosis was delayed for years until I had a mri. True story. I think I mentioned before it was a neurosurgeon who suspected ms not the Neurologists I had seen. Hope you're doing well.

    How MRI works? The human body is composed of 70% water which contains hydrogen. When hydrogen atoms are put in a magnetic field, they arrange in a particular manner. When radio frequencies (RF) are introduced or radiated, the hydrogen atoms disarrange and rearrange once the RF stop radiating. The time difference of disarrangement and rearrangement of hydrogen atoms (varies by organs) is processed by a computer to produce an image.
