Uji Efektifitas Dinding Ruangan Panoramik Instalasi Radiologi RSUD Prof. Dr. MA Hanafiah SM Batusangkar Menggunakan TLD-100

Research on the effectiveness of panoramic room walls has been carried out in the Radiology Installation of Prof. Dr. MA Hanafiah SM Batusangkar. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of the panoramic room walls in absorbing radiation emitted by panoramic aircraft, as well as knowing the safety level of the room around the panoramic inspection room in accordance with the dose limit values of workers and the general public. This type of research is a quantitative research by taking direct measurements. The research was conducted by measuring the radiation dose at six points of the panoramic room wall using a radiation measuring instrument, namely TLD-100. The results showed that the effectiveness of the walls was only able to absorb radiation less than 90%, with the shield category on the walls that was not good enough to withstand radiation. Therefore, it is necessary to renovate the panoramic room walls in accordance with safety standards

DETEKSI UKURAN PANKREAS MENGGUNAKAN DIGITALIMAGE PROCESSING PADA CITRA MAGNETICRESONANCE IMAGING (MRI) DENGANKASUS DIABETES MELITUS

Latar Belakang : Diabetes Melitus (DM) menjadi salah satu penyakit kronikyang paling banyak diderita dan disebut sebagai silent killer karena sering kalipengidapnya tidak menyadari dan baru terdiagnosis ketika sudah terjadikomplikasi. Sebagai langkah pencegahan dini dan menurunkan resiko DMdiperlukan instrumen yang dapat memperlihatkan gambaran kelainan pankreaspada pasien DM secara riil untuk menegakkan diagnosa dan terapi pengobatanyang tepat dan akurat dengan menggunakan MRI.Tujuan : Menganalisis perbedaan informasi citra pankreas pada orang dengangula darah normal dan DM dengan menggunakan MRI untuk mencegah danmenunjang penelitian obat alternatif untuk pengobatan DM.Metode : Jenis penelitian ini quasi eksperimen dengan rancangan penelitian posttest only without control group design untuk melihat perbedaan citra pankreasdengan menggunakan pemeriksaan MRI pada orang dengan gula darah normaldan pasien DM. Sampel penelitian ini berjumlah 16 orang, 8 orang dengan guladarah normal dan 8 orang pasien DM. Pada citra pankreas tersebut dilakukanpengukuran panjang, diameter, dan luas pankreas menggunakan software mathlabdan dilakukan analisis data menggunakan uji statistik Mann Whitney.Hasil : Terdapat perbedaan ukuran panjang, diameter dan luas pankreas padaorang dengan gula darah normal dan pasien DM (

Lead apron leak test at the Padang Reksodiwiryo Army Hospital's radiology installation

A lead apron is a lead apron designed to protect the body from radiation hazards. The lead apron test is carried out once a year to ensure that it can provide optimal protection when in use, it is necessary to test personal protective equipment. Based on observations, the storage and placement of tin aprons is not in accordance with the rules so that it can reduce its function as personal protective equipment. This study aims to determine whether there is a leak in the lead apron, and to find out whether the lead apron is still suitable for use as personal protective equipment (PPE). This type of quantitative research with experimental methods at the Radiology Installation of RST Dr. Reksodiwiryo Padang on March 31, 2022. The sample in this study was 2 lead aprons, each lead apron is divided into four quadrants, namely the upper right side, upper left side, lower right side and lower left side. Each quadrant was tested with a tube voltage of 70 Kv and a current of 16 mAs. Then made observations and compared with the theory of Lambert and Mc Keon. The results of the study found that there was a leak in the Apron A quadrant 3 with an area of ​​0.75 mm2 and quadrant 4 with an area of ​​0.67 mm2. On Apron B there is a leak in quadrant 4 with an area of ​​0.06 mm2. From the results of the study of lead apron leaks in quadrant 3 and quadrant 4, the quadrant area is a critical area which according to Lambert's theory should not exceed 15 mm2 so that the lead apron under study is still suitable for use as personal protective equipment (PPE)
