Ake sifunde ngezindlala emlonyeni wakho ezikhiqiza amathe. Ake sixoxe nge-(Salivary Gland Scan)!

Wake wazibuza ukuthi amathe akhiqizwa kanjani emilonyeni yethu nokuthi yini ewasizayo? Kukhona uhlobo lwendlala ebizwa ngokuthi amathe angaphakathi emilonyeni yethu. Lawa amathe akhiqiza amathe futhi agcine imilomo yethu imanzi futhi asisize ekugayeni ukudla. Ngakho-ke ngezinye izikhathi kwenziwa ukuhlolwa okukhethekile ukuze kubonakale ukuthi la mathe asebenza kahle yini nokuthi kukhona yini inkinga. Yilokho esikubiza ngokuthi `(Salivary Gland Scan)`. Ake sixoxe ngalokhu namuhla nje.

Kuyini lokhu kuhlolwa kwe-Salivary Gland Scan?

Kalula nje, lokhu kuwukuhlolwa okusetshenziswa ubuchwepheshe bezokwelapha obubizwa ngokuthi "umuthi we-nuclear". Kufana nokuthatha isithombe, kodwa kubheka izindlala zamathe emlonyeni wakho. Kusetshenziswa kakhulu ukuhlola ukuthi lezi zindlala zisebenza kahle yini futhi zikhiqiza amathe anele. Abanye abantu bakubiza nangokuthi "ukuhlolwa komsebenzi wendlala yamathe". Izindlala ezinkulu zamathe, ezitholakala kuzo zombili izinhlangothi zezindlebe zakho nasemhlathini wakho, zibizwa ngokuthi izindlala ze-parotid . Ngenxa yokuthi lokhu kuhlolwa kunganikeza nolwazi mayelana nalezi zindlala, ngezinye izikhathi kubizwa ngokuthi "i-parotid scintigraphy".

Ngakho-ke, lolu vivinyo lwenziwa nini?

Kunezizathu eziningana zokuthi kungani udokotela wakho engase ancome ukuthi kuhlolwe indlala yamathe. Ake sibheke ukuthi ziyini:

• Uma usola ukuthi unesimila noma unesimila ezindlaleni zakho zamathe: Ungase uzizwe into engavamile emlonyeni wakho, ezihlathini zakho, noma endaweni yomhlathi wakho.
• Uma izindawo ezizungeze izindlala zamathe zivuvukele futhi zibuhlungu: Lokhu kusho ukuthi uzizwa uvuvukile noma ubuhlungu ezindaweni ezifana nengaphakathi lomlomo wakho, ohlangothini ngalunye lomhlathi wakho, noma eduze kwezindlebe zakho.
• Uma umlomo wakho uhlala womile: Lokhu kubizwa ngokuthi "i-Xerostomia." Kusho ukuthi amathe emlonyeni ayancipha, okwenza umlomo wome.

Uma kunezimpawu ezinjengalezi, udokotela angenza lokhu kuskena ukuze abone ukuthi kukhona yini inkinga yangaphakathi.

Kwenziwa kanjani lokhu kuskena?

Lolu vivinyo olukhethekile kancane. Lusebenzisa ikhamera kanye nento ekhipha imisebe (siyibiza ngokuthi `(tracer)`). Ungakhathazeki, le `(tracer)` ngeke ikulimaze kakhulu, isebenzisa inani elincane kakhulu.

Cabanga nje, le `(tracer)` ifana neconsi lamanzi anombala. Uma uyibeka emzimbeni wakho, ixubana namathe akho bese ihamba ngezindlala zakho zamathe. Uma uyibheka ngaleyo khamera ekhethekile, ungabona ngokucacile ukuthi le dayi ihamba kanjani emgwaqweni. Kufana nokubuka izimoto emgwaqweni ngekhamera ye-`(CCTV)`. Lokhu kuvumela odokotela ukuthi baqonde ukuthi izindlala zakho zamathe zisebenza kanjani nokuthi kukhona yini ukuvaleka endaweni ethile.

Kufanele uzilungiselele kanjani ngaphambi kokuhlolwa?

Akukho okufanele ukhathazeke ngakho ngaphambi kokwenza lokhu `(i-Salivary Gland Scan)`. Kodwa kunezinto ezimbalwa ezincane okufanele uzazi.

• EyakhoZonke izinto zokuhloba, ezifana namacici nemigexo, ebusweni, ekhanda, nasentanyeni kufanele zisuswe, ngoba zingase ziphazamise izithombe ezikuskeni.
• Uma une-allergy kunoma yikuphi ukudla, qiniseka ukuthi utshela udokotela wakho ngakho kusengaphambili.
• Kufanele futhi wazise abasebenzi bezokwelapha uma ukhulelwe, noma ucabanga ukuthi kungenzeka ukuthi ukhulelwe . Lokhu kubaluleke kakhulu.

Lezi yizinto eziyinhloko okudingeka uzenze. Akudingeki ukulungiselela okuningi, ngakho gcina ingqondo yakho ivulekile.

Kwenzekani ngesikhathi sokuhlolwa?

Kulungile, manje ake sibone ukuthi kuzokwenzekani ngesikhathi sokuskena. Uzoyiswa ekamelweni "lemithi yenuzi". Uzocelwa ukuba ulale etafuleni lapho. Ngemuva kwalokho, ngokuvamile "uchwepheshe wemithi yenuzi", uchwepheshe owenza lezi zivivinyo, uzokwenza okulandelayo:

1. Okokuqala, imishini yokuthwebula izithombe izobekwa eduze kobuso bakho nentamo. Ibukeka njengomshini we-"X-ray". Kodwa ungakhathazeki, ngeke kube buhlungu.

2. Okulandelayo, inani elincane lento ekhipha imisebe ebizwa ngokuthi ``(tracer)`` ifakwa emthanjeni ongalweni yakho. Ngalesi sikhathi, ungase uzwe ubuhlungu obuncane, njengokuhlaba kwentuthwane encane noma ukuhlatshwa ngenaliti. Lokhu kuzophela ngemizuzwana embalwa.

3. Manje izithombe zezindlala zakho zamathe zizothathwa. Lokhu kungathatha cishe imizuzu engama-45. Okumele ukwenze nje ukuhlala unganyakazi. Ngeke uzwe ubuhlungu ngesikhathi uthatha izithombe noma usuka emshinini.

4. Bese uvuselela izindlala zakho zamathe, okusho ukunikeza umlomo wakho umlomo ogcwele amathe, ucezu lwelamula, noma okuthile okumuncu. Lokhu kuzokwenza izindlala zakho zamathe ziqale ukukhiqiza amathe engeziwe.

5. Ekugcineni, cishe emizuzwini engama-20, sizothatha izithombe ezengeziwe zezindlala zakho zamathe. Lokhu kuzobheka ukuthi kukhona yini umehluko endleleni amathe akho ageleza ngayo ngemva kokuwafaka umuncu.

Yilokhu okwenzekayo ngesikhathi sokuhlolwa. Hlala uphumule ngangokunokwenzeka. Uma uzizwa ungakhululekile, tshela abantu lapho.

Yini ongayilindela ngemva kokuhlolwa?

Ngemva kokuthi ukuskena sekuqediwe, ungaqhubeka nemisebenzi yakho evamile ngaphandle kokuthi udokotela wakho akutshele ngenye indlela. Ngeke kudingeke uphumule kakhulu.

Kodwa, kukhona into eyodwa okufanele uyikhumbule. Kungase kube khona inani elincane le-``(tracer)`` olifake emzimbeni wakho. Ukuze ugweme ukuthinta abanye nganoma iyiphi indlela, yenza lezi zinto:

• Hlanza indlu yangasese ngokushesha ngemva kokuyisebenzisa. Inani elincane le-tracer lizokhishwa emchameni wakho nasendle emahoreni okuqala angu-24 ngemva kokuskena.
• Geza izandla zakho kahle ngensipho ngemva kokusebenzisa indlu yangasese.

Uma ukwenza lokhu ngendlela efanele, ngeke kube nenkinga.

Ingabe zikhona izingozi zalolu vivinyo?

Uma abantu abaningi befuna ukwenza lolu vivinyo,Izingozi ziphansi kakhulu uma kuqhathaniswa nezinzuzo. Inani lezinto ezikhipha imisebe ozinikwayo lincane kakhulu, futhi livame ukususwa ngokuphelele emzimbeni wakho phakathi nosuku.

Kodwa-ke, abanye abantu kungadingeka bagweme lokhu kuhlolwa noma bakuhlehlise isikhashana.

Ubani okuzodingeka agweme noma ahlehlise lolu vivinyo?

• Abantu abane-allergy kuma-tracer: Uma wake waba ne-allergy kuma-tracer ane-radioactive, kufanele utshele udokotela wakho ngakho.
• Omama abancelisayo: I-radioactive tracer ingadlulela obisini lwakho lwebele. Ngakho-ke, ungayincelisi ingane yakho usuku olulodwa noma ezimbili ngemva kokuhlolwa. Kunalokho, nika ingane yakho ubisi lwebele olukhanyisiwe noma ifomula oyigcinile ngaphambi kokuhlolwa. Ungasebenzisa iphampu yebele ukukhipha nokukhipha ubisi (olubizwa nangokuthi iphampu nokulahla). Yenza lokhu kuze kube yilapho udokotela wakho ethi kuphephile ukuncelisa futhi.
• Ukhulelwe noma kungenzeka ukuthi ukhulelwe: Ukuchayeka emisebeni ngesikhathi salolu vivinyo kungase kungabi kuhle kumntwana osanda kuzalwa. Ezimweni eziningi, kungcono ukuhlehlisa lolu vivinyo ngaphandle uma kudingeka ngempela. Uma kuphela kudingeka ngempela, yenza isinqumo ngemva kokuxoxa ngaso ngokugcwele.

Khuluma nodokotela wakho ngalezi zinto.

Izoba yini imiphumela yokuhlolwa?

Esikhathini esiningi, udokotela we-radiologist uzobuyekeza ama-scan akho. Uzothumela ulwazi kudokotela okuthumelele ukuhlolwa. Udokotela uzobe esexoxa nawe ngemiphumela.

Uyini umphumela ojwayelekile?

Umphumela ojwayelekile usho ukuthi i-tracer idlule ezindlaleni zakho zamathe ngaphandle kokuvinjelwa, ukuvinjelwa, noma ukunyakaza okuhamba kancane. Lokho kusho ukuthi izindlala zisebenza kahle!

Kuthiwani uma kuba nomphumela ongavamile?

Imiphumela engavamile isho ukuthi kungase kube nenkinga. Kungaba into efana nale:

• I-Tracer ayikwazi ukudlula ezindlaleni zamathe: Lokhu kungaba uphawu lwesimo esifana ne-Sjögren's syndrome, isifo esithinta izindlala ezikhiqiza umswakama emzimbeni ngenxa yokuphazamiseka kwesistimu yokuzivikela komzimba.
• I-tracer igeleza kancane kakhulu noma ingahambi nhlobo nge-gland eyodwa noma ngaphezulu: Lokhu kungase kubonise ukuthi i-gland ivinjiwe yi-cyst, itshe, noma okunye ukukhula.
• I-Tracer igeleza ngesinye noma ngaphezulu sezindlala ngokushesha kunalokho okufanele: Lokhu kungaba uphawu lwesimo esibizwa ngokuthi i-parotitis, okuyilapho izindlala ze-parotid zivuvukala futhi zitheleleke.

Lezi yizinto ezingenzeka. Kodwa khumbula, lezi yizinsolo nje. Udokotela uzophenya kabanzi ukuze athole ukuthi kuyini ngempela.

Uma imiphumela ingajwayelekile, yini oyenzayo ngokulandelayo?

Uma imiphumela yakho yokuskena ingajwayelekile, ungakhathazeki. Udokotela wakho uzochaza ukuthi yini okufanele uyenze ngokulandelayo.

• Uma uthola ukuxilongwa okusha, udokotela wakho uzokhuluma nawe ngezinketho zakho zokwelashwa, noma angakudlulisela komunye uchwepheshe ukuze athole ukwelashwa okwengeziwe.
• Kwezinye izimo, kungase kudingeke ukuhlolwa okwengeziwe ngaphambi kokuba kutholakale ukuthi kutholakale yini isifo esiqondile. Isibonelo, kungase kwenziwe i-biopsy, ehilela ukuthatha isampula yezicubu bese uzihlola.

Noma kunjalo, udokotela wakho uzokwenza konke okudingekayo ukuze akunikeze ukwelashwa okungcono kakhulu.

Izinto ezibaluleke kakhulu okufanele uzikhumbule (Umyalezo Wokuya Ekhaya)

Ukuskena kwe-salivary gland kuwukuhlolwa okungahlaseli okusiza ukuthola izinkinga ngezindlala zakho zamathe. Ngokuvamile akubuhlungu, futhi akukho ukulungiselela okukhethekile noma ukunakekelwa okudingekayo.

Uma uzizwa ukhathazekile kancane noma ucindezelekile ngalesi sivivinyo, khuluma nodokotela wakho. Bakhona ukukusiza futhi bakunikeze ukwelashwa okungcono kakhulu. Ningaxoxa ndawonye ngokuthi kungani ufuna ukwenza lesi sivivinyo nokuthi ningazigcina kanjani nikhululekile ngangokunokwenzeka phakathi nokuhlolwa.

Khumbula, kubalulekile ukuqaphela impilo yakho, futhi ukuqonda lezi zinhlobo zokuhlolwa kungasiza.
