Basic Principles of Radiology
Air = black
Bone = White
Radiologic Nomenclature
• Posteroanterior (PA) radiograph is the
standard view of the thorax or chest
-X-ray’s traverse the patient from posterior
to anterior
• Anteroposterior (AP) is used more
frequently to study vertebrae
-X’ray’s traverse the patient from anterior
to posterior

Contrast Radiography
• Use reagents that absorb more X-rays to
visualize structures
-Barium Sulfate Suspension – bowel
lumen
-Iodine based reagents are used for intra-
arterial and intra-venous injections

Basic Principles of Computed
Tomography
• Patient lies on a bed, an X-ray tube (CT
scanner) passes around the body and a
series of images (slices) are obtained.
• CT image relates well to classic
radiography (i.e., absorption of X-ray’s)
• CT scans are always displayed as if the
viewer were standing at a supine patient’s
feet.
Computed Tomography

Basic Principles of Ultrasound
• Delineation of internal structures (i.e. organs) bymeasuring the reflection of ultrasonic waves.
-Doppler ultrasound is used to detect movementof scatters (i.e., red blood cells) by the change infrequency of returning echoes.
• The sound waves bounce back from internalorgans and are interpreted by a powerfulcomputer and a real-time image is displayed onthe panel

Ultrasound
Basic Principles of MRI
• MRI is dependent on free protons in thehydrogen molecules of water (H2O)
• Essentially the hydrogen protons serve as barmagnets
• Patient is placed in a strong magnetic field whichaligns bar magnets, radiowaves are pulsedthrough and deflected.
• The strength, frequency and time it takes for theprotons to return to their pre-excited stateproduces a signal that is interpreted by acomputer and an image is displayed
18
Basic Principles of MRI
• By altering the sequences of pulses to
which the protons are subjected, the
radiologist can “weight” the scan
-T1 weighted images show dark fluid and
bright fat
-T2 weight images show bright signal from
fluid and an intermediate signal from fat

Positive Emission Tomography
• PET is an imaging modality for detecting
positron emitting radionuclides
• FDG is most commonly used PET
radionuclide
