Hiki i ka CT scan ke hoʻoulu maoli i ka maʻi kanesa? (CT Scan)

Ua kauoha anei kāu kauka i kahi CT scan nou? Ua ʻōlelo paha lākou i kēia hoʻāʻo e ʻike i kahi pilikia i loko o kou kino, e hoʻolālā mua no ke ʻoki kino, a i ʻole e ʻike inā e hana ana kahi lāʻau. Akā, hiki i ka huaʻōlelo "CT scan" ke hoʻopūhoihoi iki i kekahi poʻe no ka mea hoʻohana ia i ka radiation. No laila ua noʻonoʻo paha ʻoe inā hiki i kēia radiation ke hoʻoulu i ka maʻi kanesa. I kēia lā, e kamaʻilio kākou e pili ana i ia mea ma ke ʻano maʻalahi e hoʻopau ai i nā makaʻu a kānalua paha āu e loaʻa ai.

He aha ka mea e hana maoli ana i ka wā o kahi CT scan?

I ka ʻōlelo maʻalahi, he hoʻāʻo X-ray kūikawā ka CT scan e hiki ke lawe i nā kiʻi 3D maopopo loa a kikoʻī o nā mea i loko o ko mākou kino, e like me nā ʻōpū, nā iwi, a me nā kīʻaha koko. Hoʻohana kēia i kahi ʻano radiation i kapa ʻia ʻo X-rays. I ka ʻepekema lapaʻau, ua kapa ʻia kēia he radiation ionizing. ʻO ia hoʻi, hiki i kēia mau kukuna ke hōʻino i nā molekole DNA e mālama ana i ka ʻike genetic i loko o nā cell o ko mākou kino. Ke hōʻino ʻia ka DNA, hoʻomaka nā cell e māhele ma ke ʻano ʻē aʻe a, i ka hala ʻana o ka manawa, he liʻiliʻi loa ka manawa e lilo ai lākou i mau cell cancer.

I kēia manawa ke noʻonoʻo nei paha ʻoe, "ʻĀ, he mea weliweli kēia, ʻeā?" Mai hopohopo. E nānā kākou i ka nui o kēia.

Ua ʻoi aku ka nui o ka radiation i loaʻa iā mākou mai kahi CT scan ma mua o kahi X-ray maʻamau a i ʻole mammogram no ka maʻi ʻaʻai umauma. No ka laʻana, ʻo ka nui o ka radiation i hoʻopuka ʻia mai kahi CT scan umauma hoʻokahi hiki ke like me ka 100 a ʻoi aku paha mau X-ray umauma maʻamau. ʻOiai paha e like me ka nui, ʻo ka nui o ka radiation i loaʻa i ko mākou kino he mea liʻiliʻi loa ia.

I kēia manawa, e nānā i ka nui o kāu e loaʻa ai mai kahi CT scan.

• Ma muli o ka ʻāpana o ke kino e scan ʻia ana a me ka nui o ka radiation i hāʻawi ʻia, hiki i hoʻokahi CT scan ke hāʻawi ma waena o 1 mSv a me 10 mSv .
• Hāʻawi ka CT scan umauma haʻahaʻa i ka 1.5 mSv wale nō.
• Hiki i kahi scan CT umauma maʻamau ke hāʻawi i kahi 8 mSv.

ʻO ia hoʻi, ʻo ka nui o ka radiation āu e loaʻa ai mai hoʻokahi CT scan hiki ke like me ka nui o ka radiation a mākou e loaʻa maoli ai i loko o kekahi mau makahiki. ʻO ka nui o nā CT scans āu e loaʻa ai, ʻo ka nui o ka radiation āu e hōʻike ai. Eia nō naʻe, inā ʻōlelo kāu kauka he pono ʻoe, mai makaʻu e hana i ka hoʻāʻo ma muli o kēia pilikia.

No laila he aha ka manawa kūpono maoli e loaʻa ai ka maʻi kanesa?

ʻAe, e hele pololei kākou i ke kumu. He aha ka manawa kūpono e loaʻa ai ka maʻi kanesa mai nā X-ray i loko o kahi scan CT? ʻOiaʻiʻo, haʻahaʻa loa ka pilikia.

ʻAʻole like kēia pilikia no kēlā me kēia kanaka. Aia ia i kekahi mau kumu:

• Makahiki: No ka mea, ke ulu mau nei ke kino o nā keiki ʻōpio, ʻoi aku ka wikiwiki o ka māhele ʻana o ko lākou mau ʻāpana ma mua o nā pākeke. ʻOi aku ka maʻalahi o kēia iā lākou i ka radiation. ʻOi aku ka nui o ka loaʻa ʻana o ka maʻi kanesa i nā keiki i ka wā e hiki mai ana.
• Kāne: ʻOi aku ka nui o ka pilikia o nā wāhine ma mua o nā kāne.
• ʻO ka ʻāpana o ke kino e nānā ʻia nei: ʻOi aku ka maʻalahi o kekahi mau ʻōkana i ka radiation ma mua o nā mea ʻē aʻe. ʻOi aku ka wikiwiki o ka māhele ʻana o nā pūnaewele i loko o ka umauma, nā māmā, ke kelepa thyroid, a me ka iwi iwi , e ʻoi aku ka maʻalahi o lākou ma mua o nā ʻōkana me nā pūnaewele e māhele mālie ana, e like me ka lolo.

Akā e hoʻomanaʻo, e ʻōlelo wale aku kāu kauka i kahi CT scan ma hope o ka hoʻoholo ʻana ua ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o nā pono o ka hoʻāʻo ma mua o kēia pilikia liʻiliʻi . Inā hiki i kahi hōʻailona pololei ke hoʻopakele i ke ola, pono ke lawe i kēia pilikia liʻiliʻi.

Nā mea hiki iā ʻoe ke hana e pale iā ʻoe iho mai kēia pilikia

ʻAʻole kēia manaʻo e ho'ōki ʻoe i ka loaʻa ʻana o nā scan CT. Eia nō naʻe, he mea naʻauao e hōʻoia e pono maoli ʻoe i kēlā me kēia hoʻāʻo. Ma mua o kekahi hoʻāʻo kiʻi, e nīnau i kāu kauka i kēia mau nīnau.

Nā mea ʻē aʻe hiki iā ʻoe ke hana

• E noi no ka mahele haʻahaʻa loa: E ho'āʻo mau kāu kauka e hoʻohana i ka mahele haʻahaʻa loa o ka radiation i ka wā o ka hoʻāʻo, ʻoiai inā he nui kāu mau scan.
• E nīnau e pili ana i kahi ʻapena alakaʻi: E nīnau i ka loea inā hiki iā lākou ke uhi i nā wahi o kou kino āu e makemake ʻole ai e scan me kahi ʻapena alakaʻi. E pale kēia i nā kukuna X pono ʻole mai ke kuʻi ʻana i kēlā mau wahi.
• E mālama i kahi moʻolelo o kāu mau hoʻokolohua: E mālama i kahi moʻolelo o nā scan CT āpau a me nā hoʻokolohua X-ray ʻē aʻe āu i loaʻa ai. E hāʻawi kēia iā ʻoe i kahi manaʻo o ka nui o ka radiation i hōʻike ʻia iā ʻoe. Hiki iā ia ke kōkua iā ʻoe e pale i ka hana hou ʻana i kahi hoʻokolohua āu i loaʻa mua ai.

Eia kekahi mau mea e hoʻomaopopo ai:

• ʻAno o ke scan i hana ʻia
• Lā o ka hoʻokolokolo ʻana
• Ka nui o ka radiation i loaʻa (inā hiki, e haʻi ʻia ma ka hōʻike)
• Ka inoa o ka haukapila a i ʻole ka hale hana nāna i hana i ka hoʻokolohua

Inā he kānalua a hopohopo paha kāu e pili ana i kēia, ʻaʻohe hewa o ka ʻimi ʻana i ka ʻōlelo aʻo mai kekahi kauka ʻē aʻe (kahi manaʻo ʻelua) . Hiki paha i kekahi kauka ʻē aʻe ke paipai i kahi koho hoʻāʻo ʻē aʻe.
