| Astigmatism |
Stigma' is the Greek
word for a spot, and 'a-' at the beginning of a Greek word makes it
negative. So 'astigma' means 'not a spot'. Astigmatism is the kind of
eye-focusing problem in which a small circular spot of light is focused
by the lens system of the eye in such a way that the image of the spot
on the retina is a smeared line instead of a sharp point.

comparing and contrasting two imaging modalities for radiotherapy treatment planning
Since
the mid-1980's, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been replacing CT
as the method of choice for many imaging applications. In MRI, the
patient is placed in a chamber and exposed to radio waves in the
presence of a powerful magnetic field. This treatment causes the nuclei
of certain atoms in the brain/body to emit signals as they align and
realign within the magnetic field. Different tissues of the body
produce different signals, depending on the mixture of elements they
contain. MRI scanners translate the signals into three-dimensional
images that can delineate specific structures within the brain and body.
