Study Notes
Heart Contraction and ECG
- The temporal and spatial summation of action potentials from all myocardial fibers results in the electrocardiogram (ECG).
- The ECG controls the contraction of the heart.
Production of Characteristic Radiation
- The energy and wavelength of an electron depend on the binding energy of the electron whose position is filled.
Radiography
- Contrast compounds, such as those used in the kidney or barium in the colon, facilitate visualization of internal organs on radiographs.
Computed Tomography (CT) Scans
- CT scans produce virtual slice images using an x-ray source.
- There are four generations of CT scans.
- The interaction of the incident photon with the site of collision deflects its path, causing scattering.
