Ubugcisa be-imaging ye-ultrasound buye lwaphucula ixesha elide amandla oogqirha ukuba abhenkce kwaye ahlolisise imeko kwiindawo ezininzi zomzimba, ingakumbi ngexesha lokukhulelwa.
Kodwa kwiminyaka yakutshanje, i-Ultrasound isiba sisixhobo esinokubhenca isifo senhliziyo kwizigulane ezingabonakaliyo.
Yenziwa Kanjani?
Ukusebenzisa i-wand-like device ebizwa ngokuthi i-transducer efakwe kwisigulane, ukuhlolwa kwe-ultrasound (ekwabizwa ngokuba yi-sonography) isebenzisa amaza omsindo aphezulu ukuhambisa imifanekiso yezitho, imithwalo yegazi kunye nezinye izinto ezibonakalayo ukuze zikhangele izinto ezingaqhelekanga.
Yiphi i-ultrasound ifunyenwe
Ngesifo senhliziyo, esithile sichaphazela ama-Amerika angama-80 wezigidi, ezi mifanekiso ziyakwazi ukuqwalasela oogqirha kwiintlanzi okanye ukukhula okukhulayo kwiiraro ze-carotid entanyeni okanye ezinobungozi ezinobungozi ezibizwa ngokuba yi-aneurysms kwi-artery ye-aortic artery.
Uphando lubonisa ukuba ii-ultrasounds ezisetyenziselwa ezi njongo zingabonakalisa isifo senhliziyo esifihliweyo kwizigulane ezinezinto ezinobungozi ezimbini kwiimeko, kodwa akukho mpawu zangaphambili. Oku kunokunceda oogqirha banokuchaza ingozi yomguli wokubandezeleka kwentliziyo okanye esinye isiganeko senhliziyo kunye nokwenza kwangaphambili ukuba i-aspirin okanye enye i-cholesterol-yehlisa unyango. Ukuhlolwa kwe-ultrasound ye-aneurysms esiswini, umzekelo, kunokunciphisa umngcipheko wokufa kwamadoda aneminyaka engama-65 ukuya kuma-74 ngama-50%.
Ngaba Ikhuselekile?
Ngokungafani nezinye izixhobo zengqondo zengqondo, ezifana ne-CT, ukusetyenziswa kwe-ultrasound kuphephile, kuba ayisebenzisi imisebe. Ngoko ke, ukuvavanya kwe-ultrasound akubonakalisi mngcipheko wexesha elide lomhlaza, njengokuba kukho ezinye iimvavanyo .
Kwakhona kuhlawulezileyo, kwaye kungabonakali.
Nangona kunjalo, i-inshorensi ayinakuthi ifihle i-ultrasound njengesisombululo sokujonga isifo senhliziyo kwezinye izigulane eziphilileyo. Abanye oogqirha banako ukulungelelanisa inkqubo kwinkampani ye-inshorensi ukuba isigulane sinempawu ezibonisa imeko yonyango ekhoyo.
