types of tunneled catheters Hickman, Broviac, Permacath

Difference between CVC and tunneled catheter A tunneled catheter will curve between the heart and insertion site

landmark for SVC approx 2cm above carina

somatic effect effects that appear to the individual exposed

genetic effect Radiation effect that is passed on to future generations

stochastic effect low levels over a long period of time

  • no threshold level

deterministic effect high levels over a short period of time

  • severity increases with dose

if no lead, how far from the portable should you stand for a CXR? 3m away from portable

where is scatter more present: the entrance or exit of the patient the entrance of the patient

how can you reduce scatter -lead shielding -lower II as close to patient as possible -collimate -tube head filters

outlet view beam angles

  • Males 20 -35 degrees cephalad
  • Females 35-45 degrees cephalad

Does raw data require more computer storage than image data?
