pneumoencephalography การใช้

• In addition, he was one of the first physicians to become interested in the possibilities of a procedure known as pneumoencephalography.
• Already in the late 1940s neuroradiology was a well-developed speciality at the Serafimer Hospital and angiography and pneumoencephalography were routinely practiced.
• Leksell performed pneumoencephalography, first in the sitting and then in the supine position to visualize the anterior and posterior commissures, respectively.
• Despite its overall usefulness, there were major portions of the brain and other structures of the head that pneumoencephalography was unable to image.
• Until the 1950s, the diagnosis of pituitary disease remained based on clinical features and visual field examination, sometimes aided by pneumoencephalography and X-ray tomography.
• Oldendorf's interest neuroimaging was precipitated by a dislike for invasive procedures ( like pneumoencephalography and direct carotid puncture ) that he performed as a clinical neurologist.
• Another drawback of pneumoencephalography was that the risk and discomfort it carried meant that repeat studies were generally avoided, thus making it difficult to assess disease progression over time.
• Before the advent of modern neuroimaging techniques, air or other gases were used as contrast agents employed to displace the cerebrospinal fluid in the brain while performing a pneumoencephalography.
• Pneumoencephalography was a very unpleasant, very low-yield test for brain tumors that was devised in the early 20th century and replaced by the CT scan and MRI in the 1970s.
• She was undergoing two different tests : one is Pneumoencephalography and what is the other test where the doctors injecting some dye in her neck ?-- talk ) 13 : 10, 30 January 2013 ( UTC)
• Then he moved on, spending a few years in neuroradiology, where he made a special chair for injecting air into the spinal space to fill the brain's ventricles and ease the diagnosis of tumors, a technique known as pneumoencephalography.
• Historically lumbar punctures were also employed in the process of performing a pneumoencephalography, a nowadays obsolete X-ray imaging study of the brain that was performed extensively from the 1920s until the advent of modern non-invasive neuroimaging techniques such as plain radiographs.
