If You Are Building e e e A New Home, or Doing Work on An Old Home .144"g7,' POLE BARNS • FRAMING • TRIMMING INSULATING • ROOFING • DRY WALLING MILDMAY - 367-2487 Roger Eickmeier Most people have had an x- ray taken at some point in their lies, but few know much about the day-to-day work of medical radiation technologists, the people who take those x-rays. This week .has been declared Medical Radiation Technologists' Week across the province to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the association in Ontario. Bob Hollenbeck, head of the x-ray radiation depart- ment at the Wingham hospit- al, said the department will mark the week with a special display at the hospital. In his 18 years at the Wingham hospital, the world of medical radiation has been opened up by dramatic new developments in the field. Today computers are used extensively by technologists to give a better diagnostic image. Infact, some of these images are so true-to-life, says Mr. Hollenbeck, it's almost like opening the patient up and peering in- side. The radiation dosages also have been decreased sub- stantially over the years, he added, meaning less danger to the patient:' An ultrasound machine was added to the radiation' department at the local hospital several years ago, he said, by which sound waves penetrate the body and bounce back to create an image. Although ultrasound testing is most commonly associated with pregnancy, it also is quite useful in "seeing" other soft tissues or organs, 'such asthe gall bladder or bile ducts. Mr. Hollenbeck said he, is. 9'tioking forward to an• ex- p'dnded arid '• modernized radiation department once the new emergency wing at the hospital has been completed. The new equipment will be the most up to date and should provide local patients and their doctors with an improved diagnostic tool.
