Fluoroscopy Course

 

Fluoroscopy is a type of medical imaging that shows a live or continuous x-ray image on a television monitor similar to an x-ray movie. It’s used to diagnose or treat patients by displaying the movement of instilled contrast media, a body part, or instruments used in surgery. Contrast media is often used in conjunction with imaging the alimentary canal, vascular system studies, interventional radiology, orthopedic surgery and other procedures.
