  1. 4. recording of a predetermined plane in the body using x-ray beam that is measured,recorded, and then processed by a computer for display on a monitor
  2. 6. branch of the health science dealing with radioactive substance and radiant energy and with the diagnosis and treatment of disease by means of both ionizing (e.g. roentgen rays) and nonionizing (e.g. ultrasound) radiation
  3. 9. Radiologic procedures for the diagnosis and treatment of disease of the cardiovascular system
  4. 13. Ultrasonographic imaging of the heart and associated vasculature
  5. 17. energy transmitted by waves through space or through a medium
  6. 19. synonym for x-ray
  7. 20. an advanced-level radiographer who extend the capacity of the radiologist in the diagnostic imaging environment, thereby enhancing patient care
  8. 21. physician who specializes in the use of x-rays and other forms of both ionizing and nonionizing radiation in the diagnostic and treatment of disease

  1. 1. radiography of the breast
  2. 2. Visualization of deep structures of the body by recording the reflections of pulses of ultrasonic waves directed into the tissue
  3. 3. the creation of sectional images of the body that demonstrate the physiologic function of various organs and systems
  4. 5. radiologic procedures for the diagnosis and treatment of disease of the vascular system
  5. 7. Capacity to operate or work
  6. 8. electromagnetic radiation of short wavelength that is produced when electrons moving at high velocity are suddenly stopped
  7. 10. branch of radiology that involves the introduction of radioactive substance into the body for both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes
  8. 11. any process by which a neutral atom gains or loses an electron, thus acquiring a net change
  9. 12. branch of radiology involved in the treatment of disease by means of x-rays or radioactive substance
  10. 14. Measurement of bone density using dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA or DXA) to detect osteoporosis
  11. 15. process of using a magnetic field and radiofrequencies to create sectional images of the body
  12. 16. making of records (radiographs) of internal structures of the body by passing x-rays or gamma rays through the body to act on specially sensitized film or an imaging plate or system
  13. 18. general term applied to an individual who performs radiography, radiation therapy, or nuclear medicine technology
