Question

Dealing in single planes: As with several other diagnostic imaging devices, most MRI images are taken in a single plane. In fact, CT scans require hundreds of individual slices to comprise their three-dimensional images. As a result, it is important for physicians to become comfortable dealing with viewing images from different orientations throughout the body. Coronal Cranial 6) On the MRI images below, give the name of the specific plane that each image was taken from and suggest which region of the body is shown. a) b) c)

Step 1

In medical imaging, there are three primary planes used to describe the location of body parts in relation to each other. These are: - The sagittal plane, which divides the body into left and right parts. - The coronal (or frontal) plane, which divides the body  Show more…

6. One clinical imaging technique that is used to visualize the brain is called Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). The images produced by this technique are equivalent to looking at thin slices of the brain. The images below are in three different planes. Label the plane for each picture (3 marks). Sagittal View of Sheep Brain (Sketch or Pic)

A scan generated by medical imaging technology is shown below. Identify the type of imaging modality (Xray/CT, Ultrasound, MRI, Nuclear Imaging) that most likely generated that image. Additionally, identify the type of scan that was performed based on the information provided in the image (i.e. what features are most easily visible in the scan, is the scan functional or structural?). Justify your response.
