Obesitiy and Diagnostic Radiology

Year 2013, Volume: 3 Issue: 3, 218 - 226, 01.09.2013

Abstract

Use of medical imaging depending upon the comorbidity diseases and bariatric diseased for obese people has increased along with the increase at obesity prevalence. Due to large body structure and increased fatty tissue in obese patients, it is hard to carry out radiological studies and obtain images on diagnostic quality. Moreover, obese patients’ subjecting to more radiation dose in examinations including ionizing radiation is another disadvantage. In order to perform diagnostic imaging process in obese patients, imaging equipment in accordance with the patient weight and diameter and examination rooms should be provided; and examination parameters should be organized according to the patient in a way that can be obtained the best imaging quality.

Abstract

Obezite prevalansında artışla birlikte komorbid hastalıklara ve bariatrik cerrahi uygulamalarına bağlı obez hastalarda medikal görüntüleme kullanımıda artmaktadır. Obez hastalarda iri vücut yapısı ve artmış yağ dokusu nedeniyle radyolojik çalışmaların yapılması ve tanısal kalitede görüntüler elde edilmesi teknik olarak zordur. Aynı zamanda iyonizan radyasyon içeren tetkiklerde obez hastaların daha fazla radyasyon dozuna maruz kalmaları diğer bir dezavatajdır. Obez hastalarda tanısal kalitede görüntüleme işlemi yapılabilmesi için hasta ağırlığı ve çapına uygun görüntüleme ekipmanı ile tetkik odaları sağlanmalı; tetkik parametreleri en iyi görüntü kalitesini elde edecek şekilde hastaya göre düzenlenmelidir.
