The use of a fluoroscope.An examination of the body using X-rays projected onto a screen.A type of radiography in which X-rays are used to give not still pictures, but moving ones. Fluoroscopy is especially useful as a guide to the physician in certain delicate procedures, such as when giving a blood transfusion to a fetus still in the uterus.Technique in which a special device (fluoroscope) allows the immediate projection of X-ray images of the body onto a special fluorescent screen. It eliminates the need for taking and developing X rays.Examination of deep tissues and structures of the body by x-ray using a fluoroscope.A radiographic technique used to study the functions of internal body structures by projection of images onto a fluorescent screen.Diagnostic imaging in real time using a converter of x rays into visible light. An image intensifier is most commonly used for this purpose and its output is displayed on a TV monitor.Examination of the body using a fluoroscope. Fluoroscopy is used in clinical medicine to provide real-time images of moving objects \u2014 e.g., to evaluate the motion of the diaphragm in a patient suspected of having phrenic nerve paralysis; or to visualize the movement of needles or catheters when they are placed inside the body (during cannulation of vessels or lumbar puncture).When conducting an x-ray examination, the utilization of a fluoroscope comes into play.A diagnostic imaging technique that employs X-rays and contrast agents to observe real-time visuals of anatomy and motion."}
