I have my Anatomy exam which is really important . I have to score more than 90 percent so please don't leave any single point cover all topics and gimme notes (last time some texts are overwritten over another ) so don't do that mistake ANATOMY LECTURE CHAPTER 01: Basic Anatomy 01 & 02 CHAPTER 02: Embryology ( Total chapter ) CHAPTER 03: Back and spine (Snell's PG:44-85 as reference) CHAPTER 04: Basic concepts of imaging

|---|---|
| X-Ray Principles | 5 densities (air/fat/soft tissue/bone/metal); silhouette sign |
| X-Ray Views | PA vs AP; lateral; erect vs supine; CTR <0.5; fluoroscopy |
| CT & Hounsfield Units | HU scale (air=-1000, water=0, fat=-100 to -50, soft tissue=+20–80, bone=+400–1000, metal=+1000+); window settings; contrast phases; spiral CT |
| MRI Sequences | T1 (fat bright, CSF dark — anatomy) vs T2 (water bright — pathology); FLAIR, DWI, gadolinium, MRA/MRCP |
| MRI Contraindications | Pacemakers, cochlear implants, ferromagnetic aneurysm clips; advantages vs disadvantages |
| Ultrasound Principles | Frequency vs penetration; hyperechoic/hypoechoic/anechoic/isoechoic; acoustic shadowing; posterior enhancement; Doppler |
| USG Transducers | Linear (superficial), curvilinear (deep/abdo), phased array (cardiac); FAST exam |
| Nuclear Medicine | Bone scan (Tc-99m, t½=6h); PET (F-18 FDG, t½=110min); PET/CT for cancer staging; SPECT; hot/cold spots |
| Comparison Summary | 2-column advantages vs limitations for all 6 modalities |
| Interventional Radiology | Angiography, DSA, angioplasty, embolisation, TIPS; barium studies (never in perforation); CT/MRI-guided biopsy; radiation protection (time/distance/shielding) |
Can I get everypoints in a pdf properly please don't leave any single point
Still i didn't get
