Ingabe nawe uthole i-X-ray yedolo lakho? Ake sithole ngokuqinisekile!

Ingabe udokotela wakho wake wakutshela ukuthi wenze i-X-ray yamadolo uma unesihlungu, ukuvuvukala, noma ubunzima bokuhamba, noma ngemva kokuwa okuncane? Kungenzeka ukuthi awuzange ucabange ngakho nhlobo, noma kungenzeka ukuthi wesaba kancane. Kodwa empeleni akuyona into okufanele uyesabe. Namuhla, ake sixoxe ngokuthi i-X-ray yamadolo iyini, ukuthi ibukeka kanjani, yenziwa kanjani, nokuthi yiziphi izinzuzo nezingozi ukuze ukwazi ukuyiqonda kalula.

Iyini i-X-ray yamadolo?

Kalula nje, i-X-ray yamadolo iwukuhlolwa okuthatha izithombe ezimnyama nezimhlophe zangaphakathi kwedolo lakho, amathambo nezicubu ezithambile . Lezi zithombe zibonisa i-kneecap yakho (i-patella), ingxenye yethambo lakho lethanga (i-femur), kanye nengxenye ephezulu yethambo lakho lesifuba (i-tibia). Ngezinye izikhathi, ingxenye yethambo lesifuba (i-fibula) ingabonakala nakulezi zithombe ze-X-ray. Odokotela basebenzisa le mifanekiso ye-X ukusiza ekuxilongeni nasekuphatheni izimo ezahlukene zamadolo.

Iyini le X-ray?

Ama-X-ray uhlobo olukhethekile lwemisebe esetshenziswa ukuthatha izithombe zezinto ezingaphakathi emizimbeni yethu. Uma sikhuluma iqiniso, aluhlobo lwamagagasi kagesi . Ama-X-ray ngokuvamile ayindlela yokuqala yokuthwebula izithombe esetshenziswa udokotela ukuthola isifo.

Nansi indlela esebenza ngayo: Umshini we-X-ray uthumela umsebe wemisebe emizimbeni yethu. Amathambo ethu aqukethe i-calcium eningi, ngakho amunca imisebe eminingi. Amathambo abonakala emhlophe esithombeni se-X-ray. Kodwa izicubu ezithambile njengemisipha namafutha zimunca imisebe encane, ngakho zibonakala zimpunga. Uyaqonda?

Ngidinga nini i-X-ray yamadolo?

Kunezizathu eziningana zokuthi kungani udokotela wakho engase acele i-X-ray yedolo. Isizathu esiyinhloko ukusiza ekuxilongeni ukulimala kanye nezimo ezingaba khona edolweni. Okulandelayo kungatholakala kule X-ray:

• Amathambo aphukile edolweni (siphinde siwabize ngokuthi 'ama-fracture'). Ngezinye izikhathi ngisho nomfantu omncane ungabanjwa kulokhu.
• Ukuhlukana kwamalunga. Lokhu kusho ukuthi idolo lisukile endaweni yalo.
• Ingabe kukhona uketshezi oluningi kakhulu esilungwini? Lokhu kungaba uphawu lokukhubeka.
• Hlola ukuthi ngabe kukhona yini izingcezu zamathambo ezihlukene. Lokhu kungenzeka ngemva kwezingozi ezithile.
• Ama-bone spurs (abizwa nangokuthi 'ama-osteophyte'). Lawa avame ukukhula njengoba sikhula.
• I-osteoarthritis yisifo samalunga esithinta abantu abaningi.
• Ukungahambi kahle endaweni yejoyinti ledolo. Okusho ukuthi, bheka ukuthi idolo libonakala sengathi liyadonseka yini.
• Ukutheleleka kwamathambo (okubizwa ngokuthi 'i-osteomyelitis'). Lesi yisimo esibi kakhulu.
• Ukuncipha kwamathambo(Lokhu kubizwa ngokuthi 'i-osteopenia'.) Lesi yisigaba sokuqala sobuthakathaka bamathambo.
• Umdlavuza wamathambo . Lokhu akuvamile kakhulu.

Cabanga nje, uma uwa futhi ulimele idolo lakho, le X-ray ibaluleke kakhulu ukuze kubonakale ukuthi ithambo liphukile yini. Futhi, ngemva kokuba ithambo eliphukile selilungisiwe futhi kufakwe iplasta, kuthathwa ne-X-ray ukuze kubonakale ukuthi lipholile kahle yini nokuthi izingcezu zamathambo zibekwe kahle yini.

Futhi, uma uke wafakelwa idolo , udokotela wakho uvame ukukucela ukuthi uthathe i-X-ray ukuze abone ukuthi kulungile yini nokuthi kukhona yini izinkinga.

Ubani ozothatha i-X-ray yedolo lami?

I-X-ray yedolo lakho izothathwa yi-Radiologic Technologist . Abanye abantu bababiza ngochwepheshe be-X-ray. Laba bantu banokuqeqeshwa okukhethekile kuma-X-ray, indlela yokuthatha izithombe, kanye nendlela yokuvikela abantu. Ngakho ungakhathazeki, bazokunakekela.

Isebenza kanjani i-X-ray yamadolo?

Njengoba sishilo ngaphambili, ama-X-ray awuhlobo lwemisebe . Le misebe emincane yemisebe idlula emzimbeni wakho bese idala isithombe efilimini ekhethekile (ifilimu yezithombe) noma inzwa yedijithali (inzwa yedijithali).

Ngenxa yokuthi ukujiya komzimba wakho kuyahlukahluka, izingxenye ezahlukene zawo zimunca le misebe ngendlela ehlukile. Izinto eziminyene, njengamathambo, izinhlobo ezithile zamathumba, kanye ne-calcium deposits, zibonakala zimhlophe ku-X-ray. Ngenxa yokuthi le misebe idlula ezicutshini ezingaxinene kangako, njengemisipha, ibonakala imnyama, noma ingwevu, esithombeni.

Ngingalungiselela kanjani ngaphambi kokuhlolwa kwe-X-ray?

Akukho okufanele ukulungiselele. Kodwa khumbula ukugqoka izingubo ezikhululekile ngaphandle kwensimbi . Uzobuzwa nakanjani ukuthi ikhona yini insimbi ezingutsheni zakho, ubucwebe, noma ibhande. Uma ikhona, uzocelwa ukuthi uyisuse. Izinto zensimbi zingabanjwa esithombeni se-X-ray futhi ziphazamise ukuthola isithombe esicacile.

Uma ukhulelwe noma uhlela ukukhulelwa, kufanele nakanjani utshele uchwepheshe ukuthi ubani othatha i-X-ray. Nakuba i-X-ray yamadolo isebenzisa inani elincane kakhulu lemisebe, kubalulekile ukuqaphela lokhu ngoba ingane yakho engakazalwa ingase ivezwe kuyo. Udokotela wakho uzonquma ukwenza i-X-ray kuphela uma kudingeka ngempela. Uma bekwenza, bazothatha izinyathelo ezikhethekile zokunciphisa ukuvezwa kwengane emisebeni.

Ngaphambi kokuba kuthathwe i-X-ray, uchwepheshe uzokuchazela inqubo. Uma unemibuzo, ungesabi ukuyibuza. Bazokujabulela ukuyiphendula.

Kwenzekani uma uthatha i-X-ray yamadolo?

Ama-X-ray athathwa ehhovisi likadokotela noma emnyangweni we-radiology wesibhedlela. Lapho, uzobona umshini omkhulu we-X-ray ofakwe odongeni noma ophahleni. Uma ungena egumbini le-X-ray, cishe uzonikezwa i-apron ye-lead.Uzonikezwa ingubo ozoyigqoka. Izokuvikela emisebeni engadingekile. Igumbi le-X-ray lingase lizizwe libanda kancane ngezinye izikhathi, kodwa yonke inqubo ithatha cishe imizuzu eyi-10 kuphela. Kufana nokuthwetshulwa isithombe, futhi ngeke uzwe lutho.

Uchwepheshe uzobeka ifilimu ye-X-ray noma ipuleti ledijithali ngemuva noma ngaphansi komshini we-X-ray. Ngemuva kwalokho, uzobekwa phambi komshini we-X-ray, umi noma ulale etafuleni le-X-ray. Into ebaluleke kakhulu ukuhlala unganyakazi ngenkathi izithombe zithathwa. Uma uhamba, izithombe zizoba zifiphele futhi zingacaci. Ungase ucelwe ukuba ubambe umoya wakho isikhashana ngenkathi izithombe zithathwa.

Uchwepheshe ungena ekamelweni elincane noma ngemuva kodonga bese evula umshini we-X-ray. Njengoba kudingeka bathathe izithombe eziningana, babuya bakuphendulele ohlangothini oluhlukile bese bethatha izithombe ezengeziwe. Ngezinye izikhathi baze bakucele ukuthi ugobe amadolo akho ngezindlela ezahlukene.

Ngokuvamile , okungenani izithombe ezintathu zithathwa ngesikhathi se-X-ray yamadolo:

• Esinye sisuka ngaphambili kwedolo (lokhu kubizwa ngokuthi 'umbono we-Anteroposterior').
• Esinye sisuka ohlangothini lwedolo (`umbono oseceleni`).
• Enye enamadolo agobile futhi i-kneecap ibonakala (`Umbono Wokuphuma Kwelanga`).

Ngezinye izikhathi odokotela bazocela ukuthatha i-X-ray yedolo elinye, ukuze baliqhathanise futhi babone ukuthi zikhona yini izimpawu zesifo esifana ne-arthritis.

Kwenzekani ngemva kokuthathwa kwe-X-ray edolweni?

Uma i-X-ray isiqediwe, uchwepheshe uzohlola ukuqinisekisa ukuthi zonke izithombe zicacile futhi azifiphele. Uma noma yiziphi izithombe zingacacile, uzozithatha futhi uselapho.

Ngemuva kwalokho, udokotela we-X-ray ubheka lezi zithombe ze-X-ray. Laba odokotela baqeqeshwe ngokukhethekile ukuhlaziya izithombe ze-X-ray nokuxilonga izifo ezivela kuzo. Babheka izithombe, badale umbiko, bese bewuthumela kudokotela wakho. Udokotela wakho uzobheka umbiko, akhulume nawe ngawo, futhi akutshele ukuthi yiluphi ukwelashwa okudingekayo.

Ngezinye izikhathi udokotela angadinga izithombe ezengeziwe. Ngemuva kwalokho uzokucela ukuthi ubuye uzophinde uthole enye i-X-ray. Lezi zithombe ezengeziwe zingasiza ekuxilongeni lesi simo. Noma, angakucela ukuthi ubuye uzobona ukuthi unjani futhi uqaphe noma yiziphi izinguquko ngokuhamba kwesikhathi.

Ingabe zikhona izingozi nge-X-ray yamadolo?

I-X-ray iyindlela esheshayo nelula yokuthi udokotela wakho athole inkinga edolweni lakho. I-X-ray yamadolo isebenzisa inani elincane kakhulu lemisebe (`imisebe`) ukuze idlule emzimbeni wakho. Futhi, i-X-ray ngokuvamile ayibangeli imiphumela emibi.

Kodwa-ke, uma ukhulelwe , njengoba kushiwo ngaphambili, ingane yakho engakazalwa ingase ivezwe kuleli nani elincane lemisebe. Ngakho-ke, uma ukhulelwe noma uhlela ukukhulelwa, qiniseka ukuthi wazisa uchwepheshe. Uzocelwa ukuthi ugqoke i-lead apron ukuze ikuvikele wena nengane yakho emisebeni. Kwabantwana abancaneIzingane zinamathuba amancane okuba nezinkinga ngokuchayeka emisebeni kunabantu abadala, ngakho-ke kusetshenziswa imithamo ephansi yemisebe lapho kuthathwa ama-X-ray.

Kukhona ingozi encane kakhulu yokuba nomdlavuza ngenxa yokuchayeka emazingeni aphezulu kakhulu emisebe. Kodwa-ke, izinzuzo zokuthola ukuxilongwa okunembile zidlula kakhulu izingozi zalokhu kuchayeka emisebeni. Uma unenkinga mayelana nenani lemisebe ozochayeka kuyo ngesikhathi se-X-ray, khuluma nochwepheshe noma nodokotela wakho ngakho.

Ngizoyazi nini imiphumela ye-X-ray yami?

Uma i-X-ray yedolo lakho ithathwe njengesimo esiphuthumayo, udokotela wakho angase akwazi ukuthola imiphumela ngokushesha . Kwezinye izimo, udokotela we-radiologist uzonikeza udokotela wakho imiphumela zingakapheli izinsuku ezimbalwa. Udokotela uzobe esekhuluma nawe ngakho futhi axoxe ngokwelashwa.

Ingabe i-X-ray ingabonisa uma imisipha yamadolo idabukile?

Cha. Ama-X-ray awabonisi kahle imisipha yakho, imisipha, kanye ne-meniscus . Ukuze athole ukuthi lokhu kudabukile noma konakele, udokotela wakho cishe uzoyala ukuthi kwenziwe i-CT scan noma i-MRI scan . Kodwa-ke, odokotela abaningi bamathambo bazoqala ngokuthatha i-X-ray ukuqinisekisa ukuxilongwa.

Okokugcina, izinto okufanele uzikhumbule

Uma unobuhlungu, ukuvuvukala, noma ubuhlungu edolweni elilodwa noma womabili, udokotela wakho angase akucele ukuthi uthathwe i-X-ray yedolo lakho. Lokhu kungabonisa izimpawu zezimo ezahlukahlukene, kusukela ekuqhekekeni kuya ekuthelelekeni kanye ne-arthritis. I-X-ray yedolo iwukuhlolwa okusheshayo, okungenabuhlungu. Kungasiza udokotela wakho ukuthi anqume ukuthi yini engalungile ngawe. Ngakho-ke, uma uthola ngokushesha, kulapho ungaqala khona ukwelashwa ngokushesha futhi ube ngcono, akunjalo? Ngakho-ke, uma udokotela wakho ekucela ukuthi uthathe i-X-ray, ungesabi ukuyithatha, kodwa khumbula lezi zinto.

I- X-ray yedolo, ukwaphuka, isifo samalunga, imisebe, ubuhlungu bedolo, i-osteoarthritis, ukuxilongwa
