Fluoroscopy Visual Physiology

        Help!  

Question
Answer
What is the difference between rod and cone vision? What type of vision is each? Which visual acuity is greater?   show
🗑
show 0.5 mA to 5.0 mA  
🗑
show A dynamic study. Viewing internal structures in motion. To distinguish between adjacent structures.  
🗑
The fluoroscope was invented by whom and when?   show
🗑
What is photopic vision? What light receptors are used for photopic vision? Why is this?   show
🗑
show Cones are concentrated in the center of the retina. Fovea Centralis.  
🗑
What is visual acuity? What light receptors have high visual acuity? How much greater is the acuity in comparison to the other light receptor?   show
🗑
show Night vision or dim vision. The rods. Rods are concentrated in the periphery of the retina.  
🗑
show Because the rods are concentrated in the periphery of the retina and the rods are used for viewing dim objects.  
🗑
Why is image brightness intensified for fluoroscopy?   show
🗑
show 0.2 seconds. The visual system will reset itself and reacquire the information for the next 0.2 seconds.  
🗑
show Cornea is the protective covering. The Iris in between the Cornea & Lens. Iris controls the amount of light admitted to the eye onto the Lens. Lens focuses light onto the Retina.  
🗑
What type of light do the Rods and Cones detect? Where are the Rods and Cones concentrated and how many?   show
🗑
show Cone vision.  
🗑
show Excessive light in the room decreases the ability of the light to resolve detail on the screen.  
🗑
show The technical factors may be increased to make up for the lack of ability to resolve detail due to bright lights. The patient may receive an increased radiation dose.
