Role of imaging modality in persistent high blood pressure!

I feel to write one important role of imaging modality (radiological technique) when patient suffers from persistent high blood pressure. Sometime patient suffers from persistent high
blood pressure even systemic investigations are normal. It is also noticed normal hormone
level - which is responsible for high blood pressure. In this perspective, imaging method (radiological technique) might be useful option for medical investigation - chest scan of CT
should be suggested. Sometime, it is shown that persistent high blood pressure is caused by abnormal growth of lung tissue (malignant) and it's hormone; however, the charactersitic of
cancer is yet to be studied.

Motion sickness can be fatal!

Motion sickness can be fatal - it is important to pursue close medical observation. Sometime, subject complaints of motion sickness at erect posture, considering orthostatic hypotension.
However, this symptom with rise in body temperature should be observed very closely.
For young individual, who suffers from above mentioned medical symptoms, sould be considered as cardiovascular disease. It is always important to arrange bed-side medical examination in the first visit to the clinic. For this evaluation, the delay between arterial pulsations (i.e. radial) is an important physical examination. In addition, ultrasound examination (with higher MHz) of major vessels (i.e. carotid artery) is another significant imaging investigation to promote early diagnosis and to prevent from further fatality.

Preventive measure of abnormal cell growth!

Still it is yet to be understood abnormal cell growth in the body - persuading cancer. There are already many predisposing factors for developing abnormal cell growth especially in the vital organs (i.e. lung, liver, stomach, bladder, prostate, ovary, cervix, uterus, brain etc.). For example, one virus (papilloma) is mostly responsible for cervical cancer among women.
However, the mechanism of abnormal cell growth in certain organ is not clear enough. Recent studies suggest that genetic mutation inside the nucleus of cell is responsible for abnormal cell proliferation. Now, it is to be studied - the preventive measure of abnormal cell growth. As it is already known to people the predisposing factors to grow cancer; however, some preventive measures consisting food habit, physiological etc. are to be taken into considerations - antioxidant diet, fish are well food habit. Aerobic training has enormous benefit as well. Till, there are unknown preventive measures from developing abnormal cell growth (cancer); however, the important is to keep the cells of any organ in the body cool and relaxed.
