Today radiologists celebrate their professional holiday. This radiation, important in medicine, was discovered by the scientist Wilhelm Röntgen in 1895, although 8 years earlier the famous inventor Nikola Tesla superficially studied new rays. Röntgen took the first picture of his wife’s hands, she was then very frightened and exclaimed that she had seen her death.
Now about 70% of all diagnoses in the world are made using X-rays, more than half of them are in the dental industry.
Employees of the radiation diagnostics department of the National Hospital for their practice found a splinter in the brain, which passed through the eyeball and sinuses, a bullet in the stomach of hunters, extra vertebrae and incorrect placement of organs not on the left, but on the right.
Beynegul Useinova, a doctor of radiation diagnostics at the National Hospital, even at one time collected rare pictures, but then abandoned:
– For us, it is more important and more interesting to find a rare pathology, for example, we recently saw histiocytosis from Langerhans cells – this is a group of cell diseases with long processes-dendrites, people go to doctors for years, cannot determine the cause of the disease, and we look, study, read the literature, take repeated pictures on CT or MRI. After all, a professional doctor of radiation diagnostics, this is the one who conducts ultrasound, X-ray, CT and MRI in the complex, each study has its own physics and sometimes together they give the most accurate result. Today, like my colleagues, I also adhere to the principle of “do no harm, but help” and try to softly voice an unpleasant result in order to motivate a person to receive prompt treatment. People often say, oh you will come to you and always find something, such a panacea does not help in treatment. For me, the main thing is not to detect oncology, since it still causes the greatest alertness. From an unusual recently, the patient found a double gallbladder. Functional MRI already sees a person’s emotions – anger, fear, even love, but such studies are useful, for example, in diagnosing epilepsy foci.
