- 1. using nuclear magnetic resonance to alter the magnetic position of hydrogen atoms to produce an image of the cross-sectional places in the body and measure the activity of hydrogen atoms within the body. (MRI)
- 3. an organized collection of information
- 7. secure online websites established by a physician, health care facility, or other health care providers.
- 12. a computerized version of a patient’s medical information that may include statistical data, diagnoses, and medical history, treatments, medications taken, tests performed, and any other information that could be included in a patient’s paper record. (EHR)
- 15. the use of audio, video, and computer systems to provide medical or health care services
- 17. noninvasive scanning using high frequency sound waves that bounce back as an echo when they hit the body, using sound waves to create a picture of the targeted body part
- 22. a large computer such as a computer that can control the launch of a rocket to outer space. (Large)
- 24. when a group of related records is combined
- 25. information such as name, address, telephone, e-mail address, insurance information, social security number, place of employment, and medical history
- 27. a medium sized computer such as a computer that can sit on a desktop. (Medium)
- 29. special software to perform high-speed math calculations.
- 31. allows all health care agencies to readily transfer patients' electronic health records (EHRs) between agencies in a national network.

- 2. a small computer such as a handheld tablet, smartphone, or personal digital assistant (PDA). (Small)
- 4. an ECG run while the patient is exercising such as biking or other forms of exercise until a target heart rate is reached for the physician to evaluate the function of the patient’s heart during the activity
- 5. computer assisted surgery
- 6. radioactive substance is injected into the patient and detect by the PET scanner allows the physician to detect things like cancer
- 8. collection of related information
- 9. used for patients who cannot exercise, a medication that stimulates the effect of exercise is given to increase the blood flow and heart rate, used by the physician to determine how heart responds to stress
- 10. computers that are linked together
- 11. permits physicians to see clear cross-sectional views of both bone and body tissues to find abnormalities such as tumors or bleeding. (CT)
- 13. a small amount of a radioactive substance such as thallium is given intravenously, a special camera is used to identify the rays emitted from the substance while the patient is at rest and then during exercise. Used by the physician to evaluate which parts of the heart are working normally and which parts are not.
- 14. an education computer programing designed for individualized use.
- 16. the process of sending messages from one computer to another
- 18. technology to help individuals that have hearing impairments
- 19. a computerized interpretation system that produces visual pictures on a computer monitor and a printout of the electrical activity of a patient's heart; gives information concerning the spread of electrical impulses to the heart chambers and assists in diagnosing heart disease. (ECG)
- 20. a surgical procedure where a surgeons uses a preoperative and intraoperative images to guide or direct the surgery
- 21. uses technology to direct ultrahigh frequency sound waves through the chest wall and into the heart; a computer then converts the reflection of the waves into an image of the heart, normally taken while the patient is at rest and after exercise.
- 23. an applied science used to promote an individuals safety and well-being by adapting to the environment and using techniques to prevent injuries.
- 26. the use of high frequency sound waves
- 28. light beams that can be focused precisely
