Yintoni i-gallium scan?

Uvavanyo lwe-gallium luvavanyo lokuqonda ukuba lukhangela usulelo, ukudumba kunye nezihlunu. Ukuskena kwenziwa ngokubanzi kwisebe lezonyango lenyukliya esibhedlele.

IGallium sisinyithi esinemitha ye-radioactive, esixutywe kwisisombululo. Ingene engalweni yakho kwaye ihamba ngegazi lakho, iqokelela kumalungu akho nakumathambo akho. Emva kwenaliti, umzimba wakho uya kuskenwa ukuze ubone apho kunye nendlela i-gallium eqokelelwe ngayo emzimbeni wakho.

IGallium ine-radioactive, kodwa umngcipheko wokuvezwa kwemitha kule nkqubo ungaphantsi kune-X-ray okanye i-CT scan. Ngaphandle kwenaliti, uvavanyo alunantlungu kwaye lufuna ukulungiswa okuncinci. Nangona kunjalo, ukuskena kwenzeka emva kweeyure ezininzi emva kwenaliti ye-gallium, ke inkqubo kufuneka icwangciswe ngokufanelekileyo.

Injongo yeskena segallium

Ugqirha wakho unokuyalela i-gallium scan ukuba uneentlungu ezingachazwanga okanye umkhuhlane, okanye ukuba kukho urhano lomhlaza. Oogqirha bayalela ukuskena njengoluvavanyo olulandelayo kubantu abaye bafunyanwa okanye baphathwa ngumhlaza. Ukuskena kunokusetyenziselwa ukuhlola imiphunga.

Injongo yokuvavanywa kwegaliyamu yemiphunga

Kwi-gallium scan yemiphunga, imiphunga yakho kufuneka ibonakale iqhelekile ngobukhulu kunye nokuthungwa, kwaye kufanele ukuba iqokelele igalcium encinci.

Iziphumo ezingaqhelekanga zingabonisa:

• sarcoidosis, eyenzeka xa iiseli ezingapheliyo zokuvuvukala zenza amaqhuqhuva kwizitho ezininzi
• usulelo lokuphefumla
• ithumba emiphungeni
• Isifo esibizwa ngokuba yi-scleroderma of a lung, autoimmune disease esonakalisa amalungu abalulekileyo
• I-pulmonary embolus, eluvalelwano lwe-arterial
• uxinzelelo lwegazi lokuqala lwe-pulmonary, oluxinzelelo lwegazi oluphezulu kwimithambo yentliziyo yakho

Olu vavanyo alunangqondo. Kubalulekile ukuba uqaphele ukuba ayizizo zonke i-cancer okanye iziphene ezincinci eziza kubonakala kwiskena se-gallium.

Ukulungiselela i-gallium scan

Akukho mfuneko yokuzila ukutya. Kwaye akukho mayeza ayimfuneko kolu vavanyo. Ngamanye amaxesha, unokufuna ukusebenzisa i-laxative okanye i-enema ukucoca amathumbu akho ngaphambi kokuskena. Oku kuya kuthintela isitulo ekuphazamiseni iziphumo zovavanyo.

Yazisa ugqirha wakho ukuba ukhulelwe, cinga ukuba unokukhulelwa, okanye unesi. Uvavanyo olubandakanya ukusasazeka kwemitha alukhuthazwanga kwabasetyhini abakhulelweyo okanye abongikazi kwaye akufuneki lwenziwe kubantwana abancinci kakhulu ukuba kunokwenzeka.

Isebenza njani i-gallium scan

Le yinkqubo yezigulana ezingalaliswayo, oko kuthetha ukuba ungagoduka ngosuku lovavanyo.

Xa ufika esibhedlele, ugqirha uza kufaka isisombululo se-gallium kwisithambo sengalo yakho. Ungaziva uhlaba kakhulu kwaye indawo yenaliti inokuba yithenda okwemizuzu embalwa.

Emva kwenaliti, uya kuba nakho ukuphuma esibhedlele njengoko i-gallium iqala ukuhamba kwigazi lakho, uqokelela emathanjeni nakumalungu akho. Uya kucelwa ukuba ubuyele esibhedlele ukuze uhlolwe, ngokuqhelekileyo phakathi kweeyure ezintandathu ukuya kuma-48 emva kokufumana inaliti.

Xa ubuya, uya kutshintsha ube yingubo yesibhedlele, ususe bonke ubucwebe kunye nezinye izinyithi, kwaye ulale ngomqolo kwitafile eqinileyo. Iskena siya kuhamba kancinci sijikeleze umzimba wakho ngelixa ikhamera ekhethekileyo ibhaqa apho i-gallium iqokelele emzimbeni wakho. Imifanekiso yekhamera ibonwa esweni.

Inkqubo yokuskena ithatha phakathi kwemizuzu engama-30 ukuya kwengama-60. Kubalulekile ukuhlala uzolile ngokupheleleyo ngexesha lokuskena. Iskena asikuchukumisi, kwaye inkqubo ayinabuhlungu.

Abanye abantu bakufumanisa kunzima ukuba netafile enzima kwaye banengxaki yokushiyeka. Ukuba ucinga ukuba uza kuba nengxaki yokulala ungathethi, xelela ugqirha wakho phambi kovavanyo. Ugqirha wakho angakunika iyeza lokuthomalalisa okanye elinokuxhalabisa ukuze uncede.

Ngamanye amaxesha ukuskena kunokuphindwa kwiintsuku ezininzi. Kule meko, awuyi kufuna inaliti eyongezelelweyo yegaliyum.

Ukutolika iziphumo zakho

I-radiologist iya kuhlola kwakhona iiskrini zakho kwaye ithumele ingxelo kugqirha wakho. Ngokuqhelekileyo, i-gallium iya kuqokelela kwi:

• amathambo
• isibindi
• izicubu zamabele
• udakada
• amathumbu amakhulu

Iiseli zomhlaza kunye nezinye izicubu ezonakalisiweyo zithatha i-gallium elula kunezicubu ezisempilweni. IGallium eqokelela kwezinye iisayithi inokuba luphawu losulelo, ukudumba, okanye ithumba.

Ngaba i-gallium scan iyingozi?

Kukho umngcipheko omncinci weengxaki ezivela kwimisebe ye-radiation, kodwa ingaphantsi komngcipheko obandakanyekayo kwi-X-ray okanye kwi-CT scans. Umngcipheko weengxaki ukwanda ukuba unama-gallium amaninzi ngexesha.

Inani elilandelelweyo le-gallium lingasala kwizicubu zakho iiveki ezimbalwa, kodwa umzimba wakho uya kuyiphelisa i-gallium ngokwendalo.
