ABSTRACT Recently measuring of stroke volume by scintigraphy has been used as indicator of heart muscle ability to contract. This study aimed to identify and evaluate the stroke volume. Accordingly the data was collected from 50 patients at Elnilein medical center, department of nuclear medicine, during the period from 4/4/2011 to 24/8/2011. The patients were injected with a 99mTc-sestamibi (hexakis [2- methoxyisobutylisonitril]) and 99mTc-tetrofosmin (1, 2-bis [bis (2-ethoxyethyl)- phosphino...
Abstract Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a spectroscopic imaging technique used in medical to produce images of the human body. MRI is one of the safety diagnostic procedures for measurement of the optic nerve diameter. The objective of this study is to measure the effectiveness of magnetic resonance imaging to measure the optic nerve affected by Diabetes. A total of 50 diabetic and control patients [30 (60%) diabetic patients, 20 (40%) control group]. The mean and range of patient age w...

ABSTRACT Construction activity plays a vital role economic growth and development of any nation by creating employment opportunities as well as housing for habitation or for conducting other business activities. The construction industry is labour intensive and the efforts of its craftsmen towards an efficient performance cannot be overemphasized. Studies in the past have established the shortage of craftsmen in the industry and lack of adequate resources is said to have compounded performan...
ABSTRACT The aim of this study was assessment of geriatric brain consequences in Sudan by using computer tomography and magnetic resonance image. The methodology was based on measurement of brain ventricles, cranialvolume, Hounsfield unit, signal intensity of gray and white matters. The results showed that: aging shows less significant (R2 =0.4) impact on ventricle volume generally (due to gender factor) and the correlation best fitted to equation: y = 1.4588x - 40.742, where x refers to age...
Abstract At the present time, architecture has not been immune to the technological development that has taken place in the world. Modern technologies have begun to modernize architecture, making them think, analyze, decide and implement. It is known that the internal environment of hospitals is considered as a catalyst for healing, which has become one of the topics that reflect the thought of the world and show the extent of intellectual development in the field of hospital design, which d...
This study include 77 patients in different age, sex, center of origin and type of food and drink intake. To study the relationship between thyroid function test and thyroid uptake using 99mTc. The study was also designed to help in determination of the normal range of the thyroid uptake in Sudanese as well as the possibility of replacing the TFT test by thyroid uptake. The study was conducted at RICK; nuclear medicine department (gamma camera and RIA) for five months From MAY to AUG 2009. th...

Abstract Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune inflammatory disease of the central nervous system, which can be diagnosed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). This study is an analytical study, which conducted in many diagnostic centers from May 2015 to Mars 2018, MRI brain scan were done for 64 patients (male 18) and female(46) their age range 17 year to 46 year. Patients known case of multiple sclerosis the aim of this study was to evaluate the of routine MRI brain protocol for M...
Abstract This study was done to determine the normal Antero-posterior diameter of the spinal canal in lumbosacral region (all lumbar and first sacral level) among the adult Sudanese population using the MRI and to determine whether there are any differences related to age, weightand gender regarding this diameter. The study was retrospective descriptive cross-sectional analytical study. MRI examinations were performed in Modern Medical Center for 200 normal Sudanese subjects to study the lum...
ABSTRACT This study is an attempt to evaluate the pituitary gland for patients with visual disturbance using MRI by measuring size of pituitary gland and signal intensity in T1Weighted image, with and without contrast and T2Weighted image. The study was conducted at Alzaytouna Specialist Hospital (KhartoumSudan) during the period from September 2016 up to February 2017 fifty subjects were selected in both gender and with different ages.
