Radiology Informatics Terminology (RIT)

Note: RIT project collects 4882 terms (by Oct. 30, 2009) used in the domain of medical imaging and radiology informatics. It only reflects my own vision and efforts. It is the preliminary work to collect and define each terminology ontologically. None of sponsorships or funds has been received so far to support this open resources for public use. Any supports are appreciated to endorse this project at the Radiology of University of Iowa. Any comments and contributions are welcome. "Go Hawkeye Radiology Informatics!"

2D (2 Dimension)

2 geometric coordinates need to uniquely determine the plane position of an object [mathematics and physics ]

3D (3 Dimension)

2 geometric coordinates need to uniquely determine the spatial position of an object [mathematics]

2D image (2 Dimensional image)

Digital image a[m,n] described in a 2D discrete space to represent an analog a(x,y) function in a 2D continuous
space. [computer graphics] . In medical and health sciences, it refers a 2D transverse medical data, expressed by pixels [radiological science]

3D image ( 3 Dimensional image)

Digital image a[m,n,l] described in a 3D discrete space to represent an analog a(x,y,x) function in a 3D continuous
space. [computer graphics]. In radiology, it referrs 3D transverse medical image data, expressed by voxels [radiological science]

3LGM² (Three layer graph-based meta-model)

One of ontology-based, strategic meta-models for modeling healthcare information systems. Three layers (domain layer, logical tool layer, and physical tool layer) of healthcare information systems especially provide a framework for describing both information processes at the domain layer and communication paths between application components and their interdependencies with healthcare information systems. [healthcare information technology ]

3LGM² Tool

A tool for modeling healthcare information systems, based on three layer graph-based meta-model (3LGM²). It implments the process of modeling parts of the hospital information system. [healthcare information technology]

A-mode ultrasound

A display of ultrasonic echoes in which the horizontal axis of the cathode ray tube display represents the time required for the return of the echo and the vertical axis represents the strength of the echo. The mode is used in echoencephalography [radiological technology ]

AAPM - American Association of Physics in Medicine

A member society in the field of medical physics, radiation oncology, imaging physicsare to promote the application of physics to medicine and biology and to encourage interest and training in medical physics related fields. See www.aapm.org/ [society]

AAPM TG (AAPM Task Group)

An aborviation for AAPM task groups working on AAPM's scientific reports and standards. One of AAPM scientific committee of the AAPM Sceintific Council is Imaigng Physics (IPS). AAPM TG in IPS reports and promotes medical imaging with RSNA committee.[society]

AAPM IPS (AAPM Imaigng Physics)

It specially focuses diagnostic medical imaging in cluding Computer-aided detection in diagnostic imaging, computed tomography, imaging informatics, magnetic resonnance, mamography, nuclear mediein, radiation protection,, radigraphy and fluoroscopy, and ultrasound. ISP core mission the promotion, dissemination and advancement of physical and computational principles as applied to the broad field of medical imaging, computer aided detection and diagnosis, disease screening, technical advancements, and quality assurance.[society]

AA (acute abdomen) 

An acute intra-abdominal condition of abrupt onset, usually associated with pain due to inflammation, perforation, obstruction, infarction, or rupture of abdominal organs, and usually requiring emergency surgical intervention. [radiology]

AAS - Acute Abdominal Series (Obstruction Series)

A r adiological series to evaluate the strong abdominal pain. It mainly refers to the use of three X-ray type views (an upright chest radiograph and upright and supine abdominal radiographs). Other methods can be employed, such as un-enhanced helical CT, abdominal CT or ultrasound (US). [radiology]

ABC - Automatic Brightness Control (ABC)

In industrial technology, it refers a circuit used in a television receiver to keep the average brightness of the reproduced image essentially constant. In radiology, it referrs to a method for control of the brightness of the output screen of an image intensifier. When imaging, the output from the exit screen of the image intensifier vary over a very wide range, depending on the kVp and mA used and the thickness/density of the object. A Automatic Brightness Control unit automatically corrects the output to achieve good image quality. In fluoroscopic units, adjustment of the output from the television camera can be done in two ways: by automatic brightness control which involves control of the output from the X ray tube through adjustment of kVp and/or mA, or pulse length in cinefluorography, and by automatic gain control which involves adjustment of the sensitivity of the television system. The light is measured between the image intensifier and the TV camera lens.[radiological technology ]
