WorkingBody is made up of the water which consists of H and O2. at
the center of hydrogen protons are present.
When body pass through the magnetic field the protons are line up in same direction magnet can pull them.
Short radio waves are send to the body knocking the proton out of alignment, radio waves turn off this proton realign and send
the radio signals picked by receivers.
The signals provides information about exact location of the proton and image is generate.May 3, 2023 29

WorkingA radio active medicine is used along with the natural
chemical(Glucose)
When it goes to the body area where glucose use for energy
PET scan detects the energy emitted by the positrons
As the radio tracer broken in body positrons made this image as 3D image
The image revels how parts of body function by way they break down the radiotracer
A PET image will display different levels of positrons according to brightness and colorMay 3, 2023

Evaluating Pericarditis Using Left & Right Ventricular Pressure Waveforms
Pulmonary Artery Pressure (PAP) is one of the most commonly measured parameters during a cardiac catheterization case. Mean PAP, systolic PAP and diastolic PAP are often derived by visually marking the waveform output by a fluid-filled transducer.
