The need and preservation techniques for orthopedic patient imaging data preservation

  With the development of imaging, the diagnosis of many clinical diseases can be clarified, especially the modern CR/DR technology of ordinary flat films, which makes the X-rays clearer and faster, and facilitates the diagnosis of doctors and patients; multi-row spiral CT/enhancement/reconstruction provides clinicians with a three-dimensional, clear part of the scan, making the diagnosis clearer; the emergence of high-resolution MRI is more The advent of high-resolution MRI is a great leap forward in imaging, making it possible to clearly distinguish many diseases that originally required invasive imaging techniques through non-invasive examinations! Therefore, the imaging data is more and more important to clinicians, and it is more obvious to orthopedics! As most patients know, most orthopedic diseases require imaging (X-rays, CT/MRI), and the recovery of orthopedic diseases requires a long process and regular review; some orthopedic diseases, such as whether tumors are suspected, whether tumors are deteriorating, whether cervical spondylosis is progressing, whether lumbar spondylosis is progressing, whether femoral head necrosis is progressing, and whether fractures are healing, often require a long observation period. Therefore, patients will have multiple films, and the doctor needs to compare the imaging examinations done in the previous period in order to draw a reasonable conclusion, therefore, for efficient and accurate diagnosis, the majority of patients should keep their imaging data properly!  We often encounter patients who have not brought their original films, have lost their films, have yellowed films, have wet films, and have disorganized films, making it difficult for the clinician to make a quick and accurate diagnosis! How to preserve these imaging materials? Here I introduce some tips for your reference: 1, the film can not be wet by rain or moisture, such as rain for a long time in the trunk of the car led to the film stick together, image destruction; 2, can not be placed at high temperatures or exposure to the sun, some patients in the summer will be placed on the trunk of the car, take out when the image is destroyed! It is convenient for the doctor to read the film; 4, you can place the ordinary X-rays, CT, MRI classification, which is conducive to cleaning and avoiding loss!  Therefore, it is recommended that all orthopedic patients cherish every health examination and keep every health record properly!
