Mathan,
Consultant Radiologist,
 CONVENTIONAL RADIOGRAPHY.

 ULTRASOUND.

 COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY.

 MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING.

 NUCLEAR MEDICINE-SPECT
& PET
 DIGITAL RADIOGRAPHY-CR vs DR

 DUAL ENERGY RADIOGRAPHY.

 TEMPORAL SUBTRACTION RADIOGRAPHY.

 DIGITAL TOMOSYNTHESIS.
 Filmless radiography.

 Faster image acquisition and processing.

 Digital post processing and image

enhancements.
 Digital image archiving.

 Environment friendly.
 Two sequential radiographs are obtained at
60 and 120 kV, respectively. There is a 200-
millisecond delay between the two
exposures.
 Dual-exposure systems produce tissue-
selective subtraction images with a better
signal-to-noise ratio than those produced
with single-exposure systems.
 3D/4D ULTRASOUND.

 3D/4D ECHO.
 Routine AN Screening.
 Downs screening – Ist trimester.
 Targetted Imaging For Fetal Anomalies
(TIFFA )
 Doppler for Pre Eclamsia prediction 22–24
weeks of gestation.
 Doppler for assessment of Fetal anemia.
 Doppler for IUGR.
 Biometry.
 Nuchal translucency (NT).
 Nasal bone ossification
 Tricuspid flow
 Cervical length
 ITS TIME TO REDEFINE ANOMALY SCANS.
 ITS A WHOLE BODY SCAN.
 NEEDS DEDICATED APPROACH.
 SERIAL EVALUATIONS – AS FETAL
DEVELOPMENT IS A DYNAMIC PROCESS.
 HIGH RESOLUTION SCANNERS
 4D IMAGING/VOLUME IMAGING.
 Doppler for Pre Eclampsia prediction 22–24
weeks of gestation.
 Doppler for assessment of Fetal anemia.
 Doppler for IUGR.
arterial-phase image portal-phase image delayed-phase imaging
 Non invasive technique which measures the
low molecular weight chemicals within the
body.
 Helps in diagnosis and prognosis of tumour
grading, epilepsy.
 Allows the quantification of the magnitude
and direction of individual white matter
fibres.
 Also assess white m,atter involvement in
multiple sclerosis and in head injury.
 Early assessment of cartilage breakdown and
cartilage integrity.
 Offers more treatment options for the
patients with osteoarthritis.
 fMRI maps regional brain activation during
various tasks related events.
 Useful for planning for sugery in patients with
epilepsy and tumors to avoid damage to vital
regions such as motor cortex, visual cortex
etc.
