Patient undergo implant procedures for size and shape enhancement also require mammography Slightly different technique is used. Standard CC and MLO projections: They are first done with implant in place. Firm compression cannot be accomplished. Eklund method: This method of pinching the breast is performed after basic CC and MLO projections. The implant is pushed posterior to chest wall so that anterior breast tissue can be compressed and visualized. Some implants become encapsulated and only routine views with implant in place can be done. Additional projection like mediolateral or lateromedial may be helpful to demonstrate all tissue. Manual exposure techniques: Projections done with implant in place, only manual exposure techniques should be set on generator as the implant will prevent the x-rays from reaching the AEC detector. It is a procedure by which nasolacrimal duct system is opacified by injecting contrast media into it. Indications – epiphoria, fistula, tumors, diverticula, dacrolith, nasolacrimal duct obstruction. Materials: Lacrimal canula Contrast Lipiodol Ionic/non ionic contrast media Local anesthetic drops Punctum dilator Technique: preliminary AP, lateral and oblique views are taken to look for opacities. Local anesthetics drops are instilled Lower end of eyelid is everted and inferior canaliculuscannulated Upper punctum is occluded and 2-3ml of contrast gently injected to opacify the nasolacrimal apparatus Catheter not to be advanced more than 3-4mm Films taken – AP, lateral and oblique views. Complications: Contrast extravasation Granuloma formation Injury to canaliculus infection Steep range radiography is modification of standard exposure techniques to record on the film a wide range of tissue densities using one radiographic exposure. In multiple radiography a special type of cassette is used to place in the cassette two pairs of intensifying screens which can be exposed simultaneously for two radiographs If a pair of fast screens and slow screens are used with fast screens nearer the x-ray tube, the film which was between faster screens will demonstrate bone structure, and the ones between slower screens will demonstrate soft-tissue structure Similar result can be obtained by placing an envelope wrapped non-screen film on tabletop and cassette containing screen film in Bucky tray.

Write an essay on Lumbar Puncture with complications. 3D16 – BD0046 essay on Selective filtration is used when it is required to record a thick and thin part of the patient in a single exposure. * Examples are soft tissue profile of the face as well as lateral projection of the facial bones. * A wedge shaped filter can be placed between source of x-rays and patient with the wedge absorbing some of the radiation. * Another type of selective filter is used for PA projection of the thorax and is intended to allow visualization of lung fields and give diagnostic information within mediastinum. * The filter has a central aperture which allows unfiltered radiation to pass into mediastinum. * On either side of the aperture are filters with the shape of lung fields. * This allows structures in mediastinum to be visualized without over exposure of the lung fields. 1.
