Article Synopsis
- - A survey was conducted with 357 adult patients in emergency departments to assess their knowledge about radiation dose and risks associated with CT scans, revealing that a significant majority (58.5%) felt their physicians did not adequately explain these risks before the procedure.
- - Many respondents (58.1%) expressed anxiety over potential radiation risks; however, 84.9% said this concern did not influence their decision to go through with the CT scan.
- - The results indicate a general lack of information given to patients regarding radiation risks, suggesting a need for improved communication and education about these risks in healthcare settings.
Introduction: Developmental delay (DD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by delays in multiple domains. The investigation of brain structure in DD has been enhanced by advanced neuroimaging techniques that can identify regional surface deformities. Neuroimaging studies have identified structural brain abnormalities in individuals with DD, but research specific to the Saudi Arabian population is limited.

As a result, we intend to assess the current safety of lone-working MRI technologists in MRI departments in Saudi Arabia.
Materials And Methods: A cross-sectional study using a self-report questionnaire was conducted in 88 Saudi hospitals.
Background: Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is considered a vital in depicting multiple sclerosis (MS) lesions. Current studies demonstrate that proton density (PD) weighted images (WI) are superior to T2 WI in detecting MS lesions (plaques) in the spinal cord.
Purpose: To evaluate the diagnostic value of filtered fused PD/T2 weighted images in detecting cervical spinal cord MS lesions.
