November 5-10 — National Radiologic Technology Week

(EDITOR’S NOTE: This article was written by Larry Stackhouse, R.T. (R), administrative director of radiology at Kosciusko Community Hospital, in observance of National Radiologic Technology Week, November 5-10). Radiologic Technology is a health specialty in which x-rays, radioactive substances, and ultrasound waves are used for diagnostic or treatment purposes. Complex equipment is used to show the internal structures of the body on film for diagnostic purposes or to treat a patient through the use of a therapeutic dose of x-ray or radioisotopes. National Radiologic Technology Week recognizes the professional competency and commitment to quality patient care' that is provided by radiographers, radiation therapists, nuclear medicine technologists, and diagnostic medical sonographers. All of these technologists help to make up the radiology department at KCH along with a team of six physicians specializing in radiology. National Radiologic Technology Week coincides with the discovery of the x-ray on November 8, 1895, by a German physicist, Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen. Dr. Roentgen accidentally discovered the x-ray beam. While passing an electric current through a vacuum tube, he noticed a nearby piece of barium coated paper glowing. By putting objects between the tube and the paper, Dr. Roentgen identified the penetrating properties of xray. Numerous technological advances have been made in Children report early a.m. fire Syracuse Fire Chief Jerry Byrd commends two Syracuse youths for the job they did in calling the fire department and leaving their home early Friday, Nov. 2. Bobby Goad, a seventh grader, and his sister, Lindley, a fifth grade student, were at home Friday morning. They were awakened, around 5:47 a.m., to the smell of smoke in the home on East Cornelius Road. The youths found smoke coming out of the television set. The fire department was alerted by the youths, who then left the home, after being advised to do so by the dispatcher. When firemen arrived they found no fire, but removed the television from the house. The cause was listed as an electrical malfunction in the television. Damage was estimated at S4OO.

radiology, including a major upgrade of this department and equipment at our own local hospital. Much has been done to decrease patient dose and to increase the quality of the diagnostic image. The most recent achievements have included the use of computers to enhance the quality of the images. The most significant of these advances has been the development of x-ray systems that utilize a computer to produce an image of the body called Computed Tomography (CT or ‘Cat’ Scan). A high-end model, one of the finest in the state, is available right here in Warsaw. The newest method, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) began in 1983 in Indiana and uses a magnetic field instead of xrays. KCH offers a weekly MRI service on a mobile basis as well as round-the-clock CT scans, ultrasound and x-ray services. This is in addition to daily mammography and nuclear medicine studies.

It only takes a second for a child to get hurt in a kitchen When my first child started exploring, I made sure all my cleaning products were stored in a top cabinet. I used to keep knives in a drawer, but not any more. I bought a nice knife rack and hung it on my cabinet door. It's convenient and out of my children’s reach. I also put safety covers on all the electrical outlets. Young children can grab just about any small object and stick it into an outlet. My stove has knobs on the front which makes it dangerous for small children. I got in the habit of keeping the knobs off until I use the stove. All I have to do is push them on, and when I’m finished, I remove them and keep them in a basket on my countertop. I’ve heard of too many accidents with children in a kitchen and I believe you can never be too safe. Katie 8., Phoenix, Ariz.
