Pulmonary lymphangiectasia
Pulmonary lymphangiectasia (PL) refers to a rare, fatal congenital abnormality of the lungs characterized by grossly dilated lymphatic channels in the sub pleural, interlobar, perivascular and peribronchial areas 3.
It is divided into two main types 1:
cardiac-associated lymphangiectasia (seco...
Article
Double outlet left ventricle
Double outlet left ventricle (DOLV) is an extremely rare congenital cardiac anomaly where both the aorta and pulmonary trunk arise from the anatomical left ventricle. It is usually classified as a conotruncal anomaly and is often associated with a ventricular septal defect with normal continuity...

Positron emission tomography
Positron emission tomography (PET) is a modern non-invasive imaging technique for quantification of radioactivity in vivo. It involves the intravenous injection of a positron-emitting radiopharmaceutical, waiting to allow for systemic distribution, and then scanning for detection and quantificat...

A trochanteric fracture is a fracture involving the greater and/or lesser trochanters of the femur.
Classification
Fractures in these regions can be classified as:
intertrochanteric fracture
pertrochanteric: intertrochanteric, involving both trochanters

Line focus principle
The line focus principle in radiography explains the relationship between the actual focal spot on the anode surface and the effective focal spot size.
Basic concept
The focal spot is the area of the target upon which the electron beam impinges. The energy of the electrons in the electron beam...
Article
Focal spot
Focal spot is the area of the anode surface which receives the beam of electrons from the cathode. It is the apparent source of x-rays.
Basic concept
Size and shape of the focal spot is determined by the size and shape of the electron beam when it strikes the anode 1.
Size and shape of the e...
Article
Anode heel effect
Anode heel effect refers to the lower field intensity towards the anode in comparison to the cathode due to lower x-ray emissions from the target material at angles perpendicular to the electron beam.
Basic concept
The conversion of the electron beam into x-rays doesn’t simply occur at the sur...
