I ka wā i haʻi aku ai kāu kauka iā ʻoe e hana i kahi scan CT, ua makaʻu iki paha ʻoe a hoihoi paha? "He aha kēia? E ʻeha anei? No ke aha e hana ʻia ai kēia?" He nui paha kāu mau nīnau e hiki mai ana i kou manaʻo. He mea maʻamau loa ia. ʻAʻole ʻike nui ka poʻe he nui e pili ana i kēia. No laila i kēia lā, e kamaʻilio kākou e pili ana i kēia scan CT ma ke ʻano maʻalahi loa hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻomaopopo.

I ka ʻōlelo maʻalahi, he aha ka CT scan?

ʻO ka CT scan, ʻo ia hoʻi, he scan 'Computed Tomography'. He hoʻāʻo lapaʻau kūikawā kēia i hoʻohana ʻia e ʻike i nā mea i loko o ko mākou kino, e like me nā ʻōpū, nā iwi, a me nā kīʻaha koko, me ka maopopo loa. Ua lohe paha ʻoe i kahi 'X-ray' maʻamau. ʻO kēia CT scan kahi ʻano hana no ka lawe ʻana i nā kiʻi o ko mākou kino me ka hoʻohana ʻana i ke ʻano like o nā kukuna 'X-ray', akā ma ke ʻano holomua loa.

E noʻonoʻo i kahi ʻāpana berena. E like me kā mākou ʻoki ʻana i kahi ʻāpana berena, lawe kahi mīkini scan CT i kahi puʻu o nā kiʻi ʻokiʻoki (nā ʻāpana) o kahi ʻāpana kikoʻī o ko mākou kino. A laila, hoʻohui kahi kamepiula i kēia mau kiʻi ʻokiʻoki āpau e hana i kahi kiʻi ʻekolu-dimensional (3D) maopopo o ka mea i loko o ko mākou kino. ʻAe kēia i ke kauka e kuhikuhi pololei i ka mea i hewa i kou kino.

Pehea ke ʻano o ka mīkini scan CT?

He mīkini kēia i like ke ʻano me ka donut nui. E hoʻomoe ʻia ʻoe ma luna o kahi papa ʻaina ma waenakonu o ka mīkini. A laila, i ka neʻe mālie ʻana o ka papa ʻaina i loko o ka mīkini, e hoʻohuli ana ka mea "X-ray" i loko o ka mīkini a puni kou kino a lawe i nā kiʻi. He mea maʻamau ka lohe ʻana i kahi leo liʻiliʻi "gho... gho..." i kēia manawa.

He aha ka ʻokoʻa ma waena o CT, MRI a me PET scans?

He nui ka poʻe e huikau ana ma waena o kēia mau ʻano scan ʻekolu. ʻOiai he mau hoʻokolohua kēia mau mea ʻekolu e nānā ana i loko o ke kino, ʻokoʻa ke ʻano o kā lākou hana a me nā mea hiki iā lākou ke ʻike. E nānā kākou i kēia papa e hoʻomaopopo pono ai i nā ʻokoʻa.

Pehea e hana ʻia ai kahi scan CT? Pehea ka lōʻihi o ka manawa e hana ai?

Pono ʻoe e hana i kahi scan ma kahi haukapila a i ʻole kahi keʻena radiology kūikawā.

E haʻi aku paha ke kauka iā ʻoe ʻaʻole e ʻai a inu paha i kekahi mea no kekahi mau hola ma mua o ke scan. Pono ʻoe e ʻaʻahu i kahi lole kūikawā i hāʻawi ʻia e ka haukapila a wehe i nā mea hoʻonani metala āpau, e like me nā apo pepeiao, nā lei, a me nā apo.

E hana kekahi loea radiology i kēia hoʻāʻo. E moe ʻoe ma luna o ka moena o ka scanner a e alakaʻi mālie ʻia i loko o ka mīkini. He mea nui e noho mālie ʻoe i kēia manawa, me ka neʻe nui ʻole . Inā ʻoe e neʻe, e lilo paha nā kiʻi i mea palalulu. I kekahi manawa e noi ʻia ʻoe e paʻa i kou hanu no kekahi manawa.

He aha ke ʻano o ka CT scan me ka ʻokoʻa?

Hiki i nā scan CT ke ʻike maʻalahi i nā mea paʻa i loko o ko kākou kino, e like me nā iwi. Akā, i kekahi manawa, ʻaʻole ʻike maopopo ʻia nā ʻiʻo palupalu, e like me ke akepaʻa a me nā ʻōpū.

I kēia mau hihia, hoʻohana nā kauka i kahi waihoʻoluʻu kūikawā e hoʻomālamalama i nā ʻōpū a i ʻole nā ​​​​kīʻaha koko i ke kiʻi. Ua kapa ʻia kēia he 'mea hoʻohālikelike.' Ke hoʻokomo ʻia kēia i loko o ke kino, ʻike ʻia ke keʻokeʻo ma ke kiʻi scan, e ʻike maopopo ʻia ai nā ʻōpū.

Aia kekahi mau ala e hāʻawi ai i kēia 'ʻokoʻa' i ke kino:

• Hoʻokomo: Pololei i loko o kahi aa koko. Hoʻohana ʻia kēia ʻano hana e nānā i nā mea e like me nā kīʻaha koko, ka ʻōnaehana mimi, a me ke akepaʻa.
• Waha: Ma ka hāʻawi ʻana iā ia ma ke ʻano he wai e inu ai. Hoʻohana ʻia kēia e nānā i nā mea e like me ke ala ʻai a me nā ʻōpū.
• Ma ke ʻano he enema: Inā e nānā ʻia ana ka ʻōpū nui, e hoʻokomo ʻia i loko o ke kino ma o ka anus.

Ma hope o ke kiʻi ʻana, e aʻo aku ke kauka iā ʻoe e inu i ka wai he nui e kōkua i ka mea hoʻohālikelike e haʻalele koke i kou kino.

He aha ka mea hiki ke ʻike ʻia e ka CT scan? Hiki iā ia ke ʻike i ke kanesa?

ʻAe, hiki i kahi scan CT ke ʻike i nā maʻi he nui, me ke kanesa. Paipai nā kauka i kēia scan no nā kumu like ʻole.

• Nā mea e like me nā haki paʻakikī a me nā puʻupuʻu iwi.
• E nānā i nā loli i nā kūlana e like me ka maʻi puʻuwai, ka maʻi māmā (emphysema), a me nā puʻupuʻu akepaʻa.
• E ʻike i nā ʻeha kūloko a me ke kahe ʻana o ke koko e kū mai ana i kahi ulia.
• E ʻimi i kahi kikoʻī o ka puʻupuʻu, ka ʻaʻa koko, ka maʻi, a i ʻole ka wai keu i loko o ke kino.
• Ma ke ʻano he alakaʻi no ka hoʻolālā ʻana i ke ʻoki kino a i ʻole ka radiation therapy.

Ke kuleana o nā scan CT i ka ʻike ʻana i ka maʻi kanesa

He mea kōkua nui ka CT scan i ka ʻike ʻana i kekahi mau ʻano maʻi kanesa.

• No ka ʻike ʻana i kahi o kahi puʻupuʻu maʻi ʻaʻai.
• E hāʻawi i ka ʻike e hoʻoholo ai i ke kahua o ke kanesa.
• E koho i ka wahi kūpono loa no ka biopsy.
• E ʻike inā ua hoʻi mai ke kanesa ma hope o ka mālama ʻia ʻana.
• No ka ʻike ʻana inā ua holomua ka lāʻau i hāʻawi ʻia.

Eia kekahi laʻana, he kūpono loa nā scan CT i ka ʻike ʻana i ke kanesa o ka māmā, nā puʻupaʻa, ka ʻōpū mimi, ka ovarian, a me nā kanesa o ka ʻōpū.

Aia kekahi mau pilikia a me nā hopena ʻaoʻao?

E like me nā hoʻokolohua lapaʻau āpau, loaʻa i kahi scan CT kekahi pilikia, akā he haʻahaʻa loa ia.

• Ka Pōpilikia o ka Pāhawewe: Hoʻohana nā scan CT i nā kukuna X, i ʻike ʻia hoʻi he pāhawewe ionizing. Ua hōʻike ʻia nā noiʻi e hiki i ka lōʻihi o ka hoʻopili ʻana i kēia pāhawewe ke kumu i ka maʻi kanesa. Eia nō naʻe, no ka mea he liʻiliʻi loa ka nui o ka pāhawewe i hoʻopuka ʻia mai kahi scan CT, he liʻiliʻi loa ka pilikia o ka loaʻa ʻana o ka maʻi kanesa mai kahi scan hoʻokahi, ma kahi o 1 i 2,000.Ma keʻano laulā, ʻoi aku ka nui o nā pono o ka loaʻa ʻana o kahi scan ma mua o ka pōʻino o ka loaʻa ʻole. E kamaʻilio me kāu kauka e pili ana i kēia.

• Nā wahine hāpai a me nā keiki ʻōpio: Inā hāpai ʻoe, e hōʻoia e haʻi i kāu kauka . Inā ʻoe e nānā ʻia ana, ʻoiai hoʻi o ka ʻōpū, hiki ke hāʻawi ʻia iā ʻoe kahi koho ʻē aʻe, e like me ka nānā ʻana o ka ultrasound, ʻaʻole hoʻohana i ka radiation. Inā ʻoe e nānā ana i kahi keiki ʻōpio, he manaʻo maikaʻi e nīnau i ke kauka a i ʻole ka mea loea inā ua hoʻoponopono ʻia ka pae radiation o ka mīkini e kūpono iā lākou.

• Nā maʻi ʻaleka i ka hoʻohālikelike ʻana: Hiki i kekahi poʻe ke loaʻa i kahi hopena maʻi i ka pena hoʻohālikelike. ʻO ka hapa nui o ka manawa, he mau hopena liʻiliʻi kēia, e like me ka maneʻo a i ʻole ka ʻulaʻula o ka ʻili. He mea kākaʻikahi loa, hiki ke loaʻa kahi hopena koʻikoʻi e hoʻoweliweli i ke ola. No kēia kumu, e nānā nā limahana lapaʻau iā ʻoe no kekahi manawa ma hope o ke scan. Inā he mau maʻi ʻaleka kāu i nā lāʻau lapaʻau, nā meaʻai kai, a i ʻole ka iodine, e hōʻoia e haʻi i kāu kauka ma mua o ke scan.
