Success is determined by injecting a contrast dye into parent artery and qualitatively determining if dye is flowing into the aneurysm space during fluoroscopy.
42.
Fluoroscopy is performed with continuous X-ray to guide the progression of a catheter or other devices within the body in live images.
43.
Dally had made himself an enthusiastic human guinea pig for the fluoroscopy project and in the process been exposed to a poisonous dose of radiation.
44.
An X-ray must be used to verify that the tip is in the right place when fluoroscopy was not used during the insertion.
45.
In the late 1990s image intensifiers began being replaced with flat panel detectors ( FPDs ) on fluoroscopy machines giving competition to the image intensifiers.
46.
Under fluoroscopy ( real time x-rays ) the radiologist watches the contrast enter the bladder and looks at the anatomy of the patient.
47.
They again found longer procedure times and fluoroscopy times, and had difficulty isolating veins in 14 % of cases which were then completed manually.
48.
However, there is a much higher radiation dose from CT scans than from the traditional radiographs and fluoroscopy tests that radiologists perform and interpret.
49.
Another useful test, video fluoroscopy, depicts what happens in the mouth and throat in the swallowing process and can be replayed in slow motion.
50.
Fluoroscopy is similar to radiography and X-ray computed tomography ( X-ray CT ) in that it generates images using X-rays.
