Yu dɔn yɛri bɔt fMRI, we kin luk aw yu bren de wok? (MRI we de wok) .

Yu dɔn ɛva wɔnda aw di difrɛn pat dɛn na wi bren de wok ɛn aw dɛn de ansa to dɛnsɛf? Sɔntɛnde, mɔ bifo dɛn du sɔntin lɛk ɔpreshɔn na di bren, dɔktɔ dɛn kin want fɔ no ustɛm di pat dɛn na di bren de du di impɔtant wok ɛn us pat dɛn kin de pan denja if i pwɛl. Tide, wi go tɔk bɔt wan spɛshal skan we dɛn kin yuz sɔm tɛm lɛk dis ɛn we kin sho sɔm pan di sikrit dɛn we de insay di bren.

Wetin na fMRI? Fɔ tɔk am simpul wan...

Fɔ tɔk am simpul wan, Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) na skan we de sho aw sɔm patikyula pat dɛn na wi bren de wok, dat na aw dɛn pat dɛn de de wok pan wan patikyula tɛm. Yu go mɔs dɔn yɛri bɔt wan MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) skan. I min fɔ go insay wan big, rawnd mashin. I de yuz wan rili strɔng magnɛtik fil, redio wev, ɛn kɔmpyuta teknɔlɔji fɔ tek rili klia 3D pikchɔ dɛn fɔ di insay pat na wi bɔdi. Di bɛst pat na dat i nɔ de yuz raytin lɛk ɛkstrem rayt. So nid nɔ de fɔ wɔri bɔt di raytin we yu go gɛt.

Naw, dɛn kin du dis fMRI skan wit di sem rɛgyula MRI mashin. Bɔt wetin spɛshal bɔt dis wan na dat i kin wach aw blɔd de flɔ to difrɛn pat dɛn na yu bren. Tink bɔt am, we wi bren sɛl dɛn de wok, dɛn nid mɔ ɔksijɛn. Dɔn di blɔd kin kɛr da ɔksijɛn de go. So, di say dεm we bכdi de fכlכ mכr na di εria dεm na di bren we de wok bכku. Dɛn eria dɛn de kin sho brayt mɔ na di fMRI skan. Yu ɔndastand aw dat kin apin?

Wetin dɛn kin yuz fMRI skan fɔ?

We dɔktɔ dɛn mek map fɔ di blɔd we de flɔ ɛn di tin dɛn we yu de du na difrɛn pat dɛn na yu bren, dɛn kin no us pat pan yu bren we de kɔntrol wan patikyula wok ɔ abiliti. Dis kin rili fayn we yu de plan fɔ du ɔpreshɔn pan yu bren ɔ ɔda tin dɛn we go afɛkt yu bren. Imajin se yu nid fɔ du ɔpreshɔn pan wan patikyula pat na yu bren. Dɔn di nyurosɔjɔn kin yuz dis fMRI fɔ plan di ɔpreshɔn. I kin si bak ustɛm di pat dɛn na di bren de du impɔtant wok dɛn ɛn dɛn nɔ fɔ ambɔg am . Dɛn kin du dis fMRI skan pan big pipul dɛn ɛn bak pan yɔŋ pikin dɛn.

fכ egzampl, wan patikyula εria we de na di fכnt pat na wi bren de kכntro di mכsul dεm we de muv. If yu aks pɔsin fɔ tap yu finga dɛn we dɛn de du fMRI skan, di skan go sho us pat dɛn na di bren we de insay da akshɔn de. Dɔn di nyurosɔjɔn kin no fɔ ɔpreshɔn we i nɔ go pwɛl dɛn.

Na sɔm tin dɛn ɔ di we aw dɛn kin du mɛrɛsin we kin mek dɛn nid fɔ plan dis kayn we:

• Epilepsy we pɔsin kin gɛt:If dɛn nɔ yuz mɛrɛsin ɔ ɔda tritmɛnt fɔ kɔntrol di sik we dɛn kɔl epilepsy, i kin nid fɔ mek dɛn du ɔpreshɔn pan di bren (ɔpareshɔn we dɛn kin du fɔ mek dɛn gɛt ɛpilepshi) .
• Bren tumor: Dɛn kin nid ɔpreshɔn fɔ pul ɔl kayn tumor, we gɛt kansa ɛn we nɔ gɛt wan prɔblɛm.

• Skan we dɛn kin du afta dɛn dɔn trit am: Dis skan kin ɛp bak fɔ si if ɛni chenj de pan di we aw di bren de wok afta dɛn dɔn tek wan patikyula mɛrɛsin.

Apat frɔm dat, di wan dɛn we de stɔdi bɔt dis de fɛn ɔda we dɛn fɔ yuz fMRI. Fɔ ɛgzampul, pruf de fɔ se i kin fayn fɔ du tin lɛk bayɔfidbak tɛrapi .

Aw kɔmɔn tin fɔ du fMRI skan?

Bikɔs di mɛrɛsin bɛnifit dɛn we fMRI skan kin gi nɔ bɔku, dɛn nɔ kin rili kɔmɔn na say dɛn we dɛn de kia fɔ wɛlbɔdi biznɛs. Smɔl ɔspitul ɔ wɛlbɔdi sɛnta dɛn nɔ kin gɛt di tin dɛn fɔ du fMRI skan. If yu want wan, yu go nid fɔ go na wan big mɛdikal sɛnta.

Aw a go rɛdi fɔ dis skan?

Di de we dɛn de du yu fMRI skan, yu nɔ fɔ drink ɛnitin we gɛt kafin , bikɔs i kin afɛkt di fMRI rizɔlt. If yu de tek ɛni mɛrɛsin, yu dɔktɔ go advays yu bɔt aw fɔ tek am (ɛn ustɛm fɔ stɔp fɔ tek am) bifo dɛn du di skan.

Lɛk MRI skan we dɛn kin du ɔltɛm, fMRI skan kin yuz magnet we rili strɔng. Dis magnet so strɔng dat i kin pwɛl sɔm tin dɛn ɛn i kin atrak tin dɛn we gɛt magnɛtik kwik kwik wan. Ivin ɔdinari mɛtal tin dɛn kin denja nia MRI mashin.

So, di klos we yu de wɛr, di jɔyri we yu de yuz, ɛn di hairpin we yu de yuz nɔ fɔ gɛt ɛni mɛtal pat. Dis nɔ jɔs apin to mɛtal dɛn we gɛt magnɛtik prɔpati, bɔt i de apin bak to ɔl ɔda kayn mɛtal dɛn. Bikɔs ivin mɛtal dɛn we nɔto magnɛtik kin afɛkt di klia we aw di skan de.

Tin dɛn we yu nɔ fɔ briŋ ɔ wɛr to MRI mashin

• Jɛlɔ, wach, kredit kad ɛn tin dɛn fɔ ɛp pɔsin fɔ yɛri .
• Pin, mɛtal hairpin, ɔndawayd bras, ɛn mɛtal zip (dɛn kin mek di MRI pikchɔ dɛn nɔ chenj).

Dɔn bak, yu fɔ tɛl yu dɔktɔ bɔt dɛn tin ya bifo yu du di fMRI:

• If yu gɛt bɛlɛ ɔ yu tink se yu kin gɛt bɛlɛ.
• If rizin de we mek yu nɔ go ebul fɔ ledɔm na yu bak ɔl di tɛm we yu de du di tɛst.
• If yu gɛt klaustrophobia (dat na, di fred fɔ kɔnfyus ples). Imajin se yu de fred fɔ de na smɔl rum. If yu gɛt da kayn fred de, yu nɔ go fil fayn smɔl we yu go insay da mashin de. Na dat mek yu fɔ tɛl di dɔktɔ bifo tɛm.

If yu gɛt klaustrophobia, yu dɔktɔ kin tɛl yu fɔ tek mɛrɛsin fɔ mek yu nɔ wɔri we yu de du di skan ɔ jɔs bifo yu du di skan. Dis kin difrɛn frɔm wan pɔsin to ɔda pɔsin, so if yu fil se yu de wɔri we yu de du di fMRI, aks yu dɔktɔ if yu kin tek mɛrɛsin fɔ am.

Ivin yɔŋ pikin dɛn kin gɛt fMRI, bɔt dɛn kin nid fɔ gi dɛn mɛrɛsin fɔ mek dɛn rilaks. Yu pikin in dɔktɔ kin ɛksplen to yu wetin na di tin dɛn we yu kin du ɛn wetin dɛn kin tɛl yu fɔ du.

Wetin kin apin we dɛn de du fMRI skan?

Dɛn kin du fMRI skan di sem we aw dɛn kin du MRI skan ɔltɛm. We dɛn de du di skan, yu de ledɔm na bed ɛn dɛn de muf di bed go to di MRI mashin. Bɔku tɛm, fMRI kin yuz tradishɔnal MRI skan we tan lɛk ring. Dis na bikɔs di magnet we de na wan opin MRI mashin nɔ kin strɔng lɛk dat.

We dɛn de du fMRI, dɛn kin put yu ed insay wan spɛshal tin we tan lɛk ɛlmɛt we dɛn kɔl ed kɔyl . Dis kɔyl de ɛp fɔ gɛt klia pikchɔ dɛn. Yu nid bak fɔ wɛr spɛshal ɛdfɔn we de kansel sawnd fɔ blok di nɔys we de kɔmɔt na di MRI mashin. Dɛn ɛdfɔn dɛn ya gɛt ɔda bɛnifit. Di wan dɛn we de wok fɔ di wɛlbɔdi biznɛs, lɛk di wan dɛn we sabi bɔt MRI ɔ di wan dɛn we de stɔdi bɔt raydio, kin tɔk to yu ɛn gi yu instrɔkshɔn dɛn we dɛn de du di skan.

di men difrεns bitwin rεgulεr MRI εn fMRI na aktiviti . We dɛn de du fMRI skan, di wan dɛn we de wok na di wɛlbɔdi biznɛs kin aks yu fɔ tɔk, wig yu finga, ɔ du sɔntin we simpul lɛk dat. We yu de du dat, di fMRI de wach aw yu blɔd de flɔ fɔ si us pat dɛn na yu bren de wok mɔ. Dɔn i kin kɔmpia dat to wetin yu bin de du da tɛm de. na so dεn de "map" di pat dεm na yu bren, fכ fכgכt wetin de apin.

Dɛn kin du dɛn wok ya tu we dɛn:

• Blɔk sistɛm: Insay dis sistɛm, dɛn kin gi yu shɔt tɛm fɔ du wan wok, dɔn dɛn kin rɛst fɔ shɔt tɛm. Dɛn kɔl dɛn tɛm dɛn ya blɔk.
• Ivint sistɛm: Dis kin min fɔ du sɔm wok dɛn insay wan row we yu nɔ gɛt brek.

Yu dɔktɔ kin want fɔ du pat pan di fMRI as "rɛst stet" skan. Insay dis tɛm, yu kin jɔs ledɔm na di skan (yu dɔktɔ kin aks yu fɔ opin yu yay ɔ lɔk). Dis kin mek di dɔktɔ si ɛn mɛzhɔ di difrɛns we yu bren de du bitwin we yu de rɛst ɛn we yu wek.

Yu de du fMRI wit kɔntrast matirial? (Funkshɔn MRI wit kɔntrast)

Lɛk MRI skan we dɛn kin du ɔltɛm, sɔntɛnde fMRI skan kin yuz kɔntrast matirial we gɛt gadolinium . dis gadolinium dεn injεkt insay wan vein (IV) (dat na, tru wan pan yu vein dεm) fכ εp wit sכm tεst dεm. I de mek yu si sɔm tin dɛn we de insay yu bɔdi ɔ yu bren klia wan.

Aw lɔng fMRI skan kin tek?

Bɔku tɛm, fMRI skan kin tek lɛk wan awa so. I kin tek smɔl tɛm if di dɔktɔ nid mɔ data fɔ analayz, ɔ if i nid fɔ du ɔda kayn MRI skan wit di fMRI.

Wetin kin apin afta dis tɛst?

Yu kin go na os jɔs afta dɛn dɔn du di fMRI skan. Bɔt if dɛn gi yu mɛrɛsin fɔ wɔri we yu de du di fMRI, sɔmbɔdi go nid fɔ drayv yu go na os. Wan dɔktɔ we de mɛn pipul dɛn we de stɔdi di skan go luk bak pan di skan, analayz am, ɛn tɛl yu di rizɔlt, ɛn di dɔktɔ we rifer yu fɔ di skan (fɔ ɛgzampul , dɔktɔ we de mɛn nyuro ɔ nyurosɔjɔn) .

Wetin na di bɛnifit dɛn we fMRI gɛt?

fMRI rili yusful fɔ plan bifo dɛn du di ɔpreshɔn . I de mek nyurosɔjɔn dɛn ɔndastand mɔ bɔt aw difrɛn tin dɛn we de na di bren de wok. Dis kin mek dɛn ebul fɔ du ɔpreshɔn ɛn nɔ pwɛl di impɔtant pat dɛn na di bren, ɛn dis kin mek dɛn nɔ ebul fɔ lɔs di wok we dɛn pat dɛn de kɔntrol.

Ɔda tɛst dɛn de we kin ɛp fɔ plan, bɔt bɔku tɛm na fMRI na bɛtɛ tin fɔ du. Bikɔs ɔda tɛst dɛn kin gɛt mɔ invasive , dɛn kin nid drɔgs we kin mek pɔsin gɛt sayd ɛfɛkt, ɔ we nɔ kin kɔrɛkt lɛk aw dɛn kin mek map di say dɛn we de insay di bren.

Ɛni prɔblɛm ɔ risk de fɔ fMRI?

We yu kɔmpia am wit ɔda tɛst dɛn, fMRI gɛt bɔku prɔblɛm dɛn. Di big tin we nɔ fayn na di rilayshɔn bitwin di tɛm we di fMRI skan de du ɛn di spid we wi bren de wok. Imajin se yu tek foto we pɔsin de rɔn rili fast. we yu kompare to di spid we di bren de spid, di spid we fMRI de kכlekt data de slo sכmtεm. dat min se, di wok we di bren de du kin chenj bay tεn milisekכnd insay wan sεkכnd, bכt fMRI kin כnli kech wetin de apin sεkכn bay sεkכnd. So, dɛn kin mis chenj dɛn we rili klia, we kin apin wantɛm wantɛm.

Di risk dɛm fɔ fMRI rili smɔl. Dɛn fiba di wan dɛn we dɛn kin du MRI ɔltɛm. di sayd ifekt dεm fכ di gadolinium kכntrast dεm tu rili lכw. Di men tin we de mɔna pipul dɛn na di mɛtal sef. Yu fɔ fala ɔl di instrɔkshɔn dɛn we yu dɔktɔ ɛn di wan dɛn we de wok na di klinik gi yu bɔt aw fɔ mek yu gɛt mɛtal sef. If yu gɛt ɛni kwɛstyɔn, nɔ fred fɔ aks am.
