How would i respond Part 1 There

How would i respond Part 1 There are many causes of persistent lower back pain, including inflammatory disorders, malignancies, pregnancy, trauma, osteoporosis, nerve root compression, radiculopathy, plexopathy, degenerative disc disease, disc herniation, spinal stenosis, sacroiliac joint dysfunction, facet joint injuries, and infections (Casiano et. al., 2019). A non-contrast CT can be ordered unless there’s a suspected vasculature or injury involvement (Rawson & Pelletier, 2013). An MRI lumbar spine without and with IV contrast can be done too to rule out any neurologic etiology (Acr.org, 2022). A patient manifesting signs and symptoms such as dyspnea, fever, chills, and green sputum can be indicative of pneumonia (Ticona et. al., 2021). It may be necessary to perform a non-contrast CT especially if you have respiratory symptoms caused by heart failure, COPD exacerbation, or cancer because the accuracy of CXR can be affected (Garin et. al., 2019) Venous compression ultrasound (CUS) is the first-line imaging test for suspected deep vein thrombosis (DVT) when a patient complains of right calf pain post-operatively (Kruger et. al., 2019). Part 2 Computerized tomography (CT) scans combine X-ray images taken from different angles around your body into cross-sectional images (slices) of your bones, blood vessels and soft tissues. Compared with X-rays, CT scan images provide more detailed information. As part of the preparation for surgery or treatment, CT scans can also be used for fluid or tissue biopsies. It is common to perform CT scans with and without contrast agents in order for the radiologist to be able to detect any abnormalities during the examination (Khalid et. al., 2020). Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is fast becoming the industry standard procedure for screening ligaments due to its non-intrusiveness, repeatability, and decent image quality with good contrast and detail. Imaging with X-rays offers a variety of parameters for the optimal acquisition of images, including the ability to store images and recover them effectively. This device has a number of drawbacks (especially with higher quality magnets), including a staggering price, long examining times, and a tendency to image ancient items (Khalid et. al., 2020). Certain diseases can only be detected by MRI, while they cannot be detected by CT scans. There are certain cancers that are almost impossible to detect on a CT scan, such as prostate cancer, uterine cancer, and some liver cancers. On an MRI, bone and brain metastases are also more visible. As well as injury and disease of internal organs, such as the brain, heart, and digestive tract, this imaging is used for many other purposes unrelated to cancer (Khalid et. al., 2020). The decision to order contrast or non-contrast scans should be made after considering the contraindications, indications, and risks versus benefits of the dye. Contrast dyes should not be used by individuals who have had an allergic reaction to contrast dyes in the past. This includes individuals who are pregnant, who suffer from thyroid disease, who take metformin, or who suffer from renal dysfunction. Acute stroke, closed head injury, diffuse lung disease, swelling of the extremities, and suspected kidney stones are common indications that contrast dye should not be administered. Contrast media is used to determine the cause of acute appendicitis, to stage cancer, to determine the stage of pancreatitis, and to rule out pulmonary embolism.
