Contrast in computerized tomography (CT Scan)
Computed tomography (CT scan) is a special imaging technique that uses X-rays. This technique gives fairly clear images of the internal organs of the body through reconstructive reconstruction. In particular, it gives a better image of soft tissue in the body while conventional radiographs do not show soft tissue well.

Ultrasound diagnosis of pericardial effusion
Pericardial effusion has many different degrees, with a large amount of pericardial fluid will cause cardiac tamponade. Cardiac tamponade is a medical emergency that requires early diagnosis and treatment to ensure circulatory function. Echocardiography is an imaging method that allows accurate diagnosis of pericardial effusion and especially cases of cardiac tamponade.

Cerebral hemorrhage due to rupture of brain vessels: Recognizing signs
A brain hemorrhage is a type of stroke that occurs when blood leaks into brain tissue and causes damage to the brain. When blood from the injury irritates brain tissue, it causes swelling, and blood collects into a mass called a hematoma. This increases pressure on surrounding tissue, eventually killing brain cells and causing a brain blood vessel to rupture.
