CT scan report chronic mitotic what does it mean for a lay man?
NOO!! Definately not!
The information after the word "Findings" would mean the Radiologist's interpretation of the CT scan.
blood clot
Hypermetabolic activity ranging up to 6.46 on a PET scan can mean one or two things. It can either mean you have cancer or an infection.
A scan of the bladder probably using ultrasound (what they use on pregnant women) or x-ray maybe ☺
"Grossly unremarkable" on a CT ankle scan typically indicates that there are no significant abnormalities or findings of note in the ankle area being evaluated. It suggests that the structures and tissues appear normal and there are no issues that stand out to the radiologist reviewing the scan.

hypermetabolic activity posterior to the bladder. SUV is 6.5.
A PET scan, or positron emission tomography scan, is a medical imaging technique that uses a radioactive tracer to detect cellular activity in the body. The tracer is injected into the patient's bloodstream and accumulates in areas of high metabolic activity, such as tumors. The PET scanner detects the gamma rays emitted by the tracer and produces detailed images that can help diagnose and monitor various conditions, including cancer, neurological disorders, and heart disease.
Ultrasound scan requirements vary depending on the type of ultrasound. For example, for a pregnancy ultrasound, the woman is expected to drink 4 glasses of water and not relieve her bladder for an hour before the scan.
An abdominal scan or ultrasound that reveals no gall bladder indicates that it has been removed.
Yes, having a full bladder before a sonogram can help improve the quality of the images obtained. The full bladder pushes the uterus up and helps to provide a clearer view of the pelvic organs during the scan.
Needs more explanation on what you mean by "scan".
Scan means to search for a file or problem.
Having a spot on your bladder typically refers to a lesion, growth, or abnormality detected during a medical imaging test like an ultrasound or CT scan. It could be due to various causes such as infection, inflammation, or more serious conditions like tumors. Further evaluation by a healthcare provider is needed to determine the exact nature of the spot and appropriate treatment.
this is a scan for pheochromocytoma; MIBG stands for metaiodobenzylguanidine.
