The act of using a piece of equipment (the fluoroscope) or of examining by means of a fluorescent screen, the shadows of bodies being examined by means of x-rays
A means of imaging internal structures of the body using an opaque agent and X-rays
In this technique a portion of the body is exposed to a continuous beam of x-ray radiation to generate a movie like image which is viewed on a TV monitor This technique is helpful for the evaluation of motion of bones within joint, swallowing and gastro-intestinal studies, and evaluation of lung and diaphragm abnormalities Fluoroscopy is used for accurate placement of needles for interventional procedures
an x-ray procedure that takes continuous pictures to evaluate moving structures within the body, such as the heart
a study of moving body structures, similar to an x-ray "movie " A continuous x-ray beam is passed through the body part being examined, and is transmitted to a TV-like monitor so that the body part and its motion can be seen in detail
Examination of an object, as the human body, by exposing it to the X rays and observing the shadow cast upon a fluorescent screen; cryptoscopy
A radiologic technique in which a fluoroscope is used to visually examine the body or an organ (A fluoroscope utilizes an X-ray tube and fluorescent screen, with the area to be viewed placed between the screen and the tube ) This immediate imaging, when coupled with an image intensifier, is invaluable in situations such as cardiac catheterization, thin needle biopsies of tumors, and localization of foreign bodies
