The Difference Between CT and MRI: Why and When to Use Which?
CT scans and MRI scans are two different medical imaging methods used to create detailed images of internal body parts, such as bones, joints and organs. They both help diagnose a wide range of medical conditions. They reduce the need for exploratory surgery and other diagnostic procedures. They both have similar uses, but they produce images in different ways.
Dr. Marc Underhill Discusses Migraines and Alzheimer’s on WISH-TV
Two-thirds of people living with Alzheimer’s disease in the U.S. are women; women are three times more likely to suffer from migraines than men; and migraines are a significant risk factor for Alzheimer’s and dementia. Is there a connection between migraines and Alzheimer’s, and why are women more likely to have both? Northwest Radiology Network’s Dr. Marc Underhill talks with WISH-TV Channel 8’s Annessa Chumbley.
