This paper will present uncommon findings that must be noticed during interpreting radiology scans. The eye balls or orbits generally, are in the blind spot during reading a brain scan. The prevalence of these findings is low among all patients, but still seen in a few cases.

Seeing the real representation of colors of the images which will help in diagnosing and prevent the use of autopsy in many cases.

Lack of new imaging machines is prominent these days; therefore, in this paper, a proposal of a new imaging modality that will help in imaging patients in emergency settings. Purpose: The aim of this paper is to propose a new imaging modality using images of the whole-body X-rays from 8 directions and combine these images to create a 3-dimensional topographical image that allows to see the whole-body from different directions with a low radiation dose. Scrolling and rotating the 3D image to see different views of the same body part in order to make sure if there is any pathology in the picture or not. Material and Methods: The idea was studied to determine what design would serve a better purpose. Many designs were removed due to overlapping between the X-ray tubes and detectors. The best theoretical design in the arrangement of the X-ray tubes and detectors was tested by using a piece of paper and drawing the X-ray tubes and detectors then gather the two sides of the paper to make a gantry. Results: The result will be a 3-dimensional X-ray image of the whole body that can be rotated to see different angles and views. Conclusion: This new imaging modality can be used in emergency settings, forensic imaging, or for imaging the gastrointestinal tract with contrast media to allow better visualization from different angles.

A deep and thorough investigation of the historical facts from first-source witnesses and physical evidences will prove what Marie Curie did and what her real achievements are. Where did she learn and earn her degrees? If there are any. Did she marry her professor? How did her husband die in a mysterious way? Was she involved in his death? Did she cheat on her husband? Did she have any sexual affairs with junior staff members? Why did the French Academy of Science (i.e. 100 scientists, professors, and doctors) voted to reject her application for membership in the academy? Why did the French public protest against her? Why did she work as a radiographer on a portable X-ray machine to image the wounded French soldiers? Was that a strategy to absorb the public heat? Was any of this have to do with anti-Semitism? Were her achievements exaggerated in the media? How did she win a Nobel Prize in physics and another Nobel Prize in chemistry? All these questions will be answered in this paper based on strong evidences. Naomi Pasachoff wrote a biography where she made Marie Curie a hero! But was she a hero? This paper will highlight all the propaganda written about this individual.

These screens are called SMPTE screen which are used to tone the image and the sound for the people watching the TV before the TV shows started. There are three designs of TV SMPTE, the new ones are presented in see (Fig. 1 and 2) and the older one is presented in see (Fig. 3). The letters SMPTE stands for the Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers. However, SMPTE is used in radiology, not only in TVs. SMPTE is used as a quality control (QC) test for monitor display to tests its performance for The American College of Radiology (ACR) accreditation process. It is a standard test for screen QC program in hospitals which mean it must be done by specialized personnel, not like quality assurance (QA) where anyone can do it and be proactive. This paper will focus on image quality of monitors in radiology departments by testing those monitors by using the SMPTE pattern.

A few studies showed that imaging of skin line and subcutaneous fat have clinical benefits for health, cosmetic reasons, and overall wellbeing. This paper will list many issues that can be diagnosed when evaluating a skin line, fold, and subcutaneous fat on different imaging modalities like; X-ray, ultrasound, CT, MRI, etc. Furthermore, this paper will show a comparison of those imaging modalities in terms of measurement accuracy, diagnosis of skin and subcutaneous fat diseases, comparison of males and females in terms of fat buildup, and so on. According to the available literature, men have more fat than women in the inner deep layer, but women have more body fat than men. Furthermore, as previously hypothesized and proven wrong, recent paper shows that there is no water in the adipose tissue. In addition, a hierarchy in evaluating skin folds and subcutaneous fa...
