The Effect of Long-Term X-Ray Exposure on Human Lymphocyte
The aim of the paper is to investigate effects of long term x-ray exposure on the human lymphocyte, reactive lymphocyte parameters and morphology of lymphocytes in x-ray technicians at Kirkuk hospitals. The study included 54 apparently healthy male x-ray technicians were matched with another 54 apparently healthy control to show any alteration in the lymphocytes, reactive lymphocytes and morpho...
متن کاملDigital X-ray radiogrammetry in the study of osteoporotic fractures: Comparison to dual energy X-ray absorptiometry and FRAX.
Osteoporosis is often underdiagnosed and undertreated. Screening of post-menopausal women for clinical risk factors and/or low bone mineral density (BMD) has been proposed to overcome this. Digital X-ray radiogrammetry (DXR) estimates hand BMD from standard hand X-ray images and have shown to predict fractures and osteoporosis. Recently, digital radiology and the internet have opened up the pos...
متن کاملUse of digital x ray radiogrammetry in the assessment of joint damage in rheumatoid arthritis.
OBJECTIVE To compare digital x ray radiogrammetry (DXR) with manual radiography for assessing bone loss in RA and examine the relationship of the scores obtained with other disease indices. METHODS 225 consecutive consenting subjects attending the RA clinic were enrolled. An x ray examination was carried out; demographic details recorded; a self assessment questionnaire completed; blood taken...
متن کاملDiagnosis of periarticular osteoporosis in rheumatoid arthritis using digital X-ray radiogrammetry
Osteoporosis can manifest in two ways in rheumatoid arthritis: generalized bone loss, which may result from immobility, the inflammatory process per se and/or treatments such as steroids; and periarticular demineralization, which is probably due to local release of inflammatory agents. Digital X-ray radiogrammetry (DXR) is an effective and sensitive modality for monitoring periarticular osteopo...
متن کاملFully automated joint space width measurement and digital X-ray radiogrammetry in early RA
OBJECTIVES To study fully automated digital joint space width (JSW) and bone mineral density (BMD) in relation to a conventional radiographic scoring method in early rheumatoid arthritis (eRA). METHODS Radiographs scored by the modified Sharp van der Heijde score (SHS) in patients with eRA were acquired from the SWEdish FarmacOTherapy study. Fully automated JSW measurements of bilateral metac...
