Many radiologists frequently interpret skull radiographs in patients with hydrocephalus, the purpose of which is to assess the pressure setting of a Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) shunt catheter. One of the most commonly used types of CSF shunter catheters is the Codman Hakim programmable valve. The name is one that radiologists have included in reports many times, but few know the fascinating story of the inventor of the valve, Salomon, Hakim, MD PhD, one of the most famous physicians ever to emerge from the nation of Colombia.
Background: MRI image quality is compromise between resolution, scan time, Signal Averaging (NSA/NEX.), SNR and Integrated Parallel Acquisition Technique (SENSE). Any compromise in any of these parameters can lead to poor quality images that can lead to misdiagnosis. The higher the image resolution, the better the small pathologies can be diagnosed, thus it is the goal of imaging a good quality scan by using a standardized protocols.
The main purpose of a radiotherapy treatment is to induce the death of all the tumor cells following the administration of a certain amount of radiation. Proper dosimetric evaluation is the basis of assessing the efficacy of treatment with ionizing radiation to evaluate the efficacy of the treatment and the side effects due to irradiation of healthy tissue. In molecular radiotherapy, made by radiopharmaceuticals administration, the dosimetric evaluation can take place either after treatment, to evaluate the real effectiveness of the treatment, or before treatment, to determine the maximum tolerated activity to limit irradiation of healthy tissue.
