Guest guest Posted August 31, 2010 Report Share Posted August 31, 2010 My only comment is on the lawn man. You should realize that he is a mowing and gardening. Exposures include fungi, bacteria and a variety of pesticides. Re: [] Dr.Thrasher, toxic/inflammatory meningitis My gas station attendant where my home was got this.

Guest guest Posted September 1, 2010 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 MRI usually show hyperintense small areas in the white matter in various regions of the brain. The radiologist usually identifies these as nonspecific. In other words he does not know what they are. Cat scan are usually negative, unless there is a large foci of intense inflammation. PET scans usually show changes in blood flow patterns in key areas of the brain. Jack-Dwayne: Thrasher, Ph.D. Toxicologist/Immunotoxicologist/Fetaltoxicologist www.drthrasher.org toxicologist1@...

Guest guest Posted September 1, 2010 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 yes, but my understanding is that cat scans, and maybe pet scans???, can expose your body to 500, 1,000 or more times the radiation of a single chest x-ray, so not all imaging tests are created equal. mri's no ionizing radiation (i think) but they expose you to possibly toxic dyes in some cases and expose you to magnetic fields much stronger than anything you woudl ever encounter in nature, so they like temporarily align all your cells in one direction like a crystal, correct me if i am wrong, it wouldn't be the first time... and when the hospital doesn't calibrate the machine right, like setting it a kid setting instead of adult, the effects can be even worse, it is now common knowledge that all the over use of medical imaging is another source of cancer down the road... sue v All scans do, including X-rays > ----- Original Message ----- > From: barb b w > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 1, 2010 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 Thanks Dr. T. these hyperintence small areas in the brain, those are seperate from lesions than,right? in the white matter are they seen as slightly discolored spots? hard to see,but seeable? with cat scans would a large foci of intence inflammation show as basicly a large black spot? void of seeing anything else there? --- In , " Jack Thrasher, Ph.D. " <toxicologist1@...> wrote: > > MRI usually show hyperintense small areas in the white matter in various regions of the brain.

Guest guest Posted September 1, 2010 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 Why? It is a heavy does of radiation, the use a contrast drug and it is very expensive. They said this about X-when I was very young to look for T.B. They then discovered they were dangerous. Also, recent data on dental X-rays shows heavy doses.

Guest guest Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 what are you saying about dental x-rays, even the digital ones, that they aren't extremely small doses but actually the opposite? I always pushed these off, spread them out way longer than the dentist recommended because it just didn't seem right getting them annually, if you live 80 yrs that's 80X.... sue v. >Why?

Guest guest Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 I do not recommend any dental X-rays. I am 74 years old and I only have an X-ray when and if I feel I need it. My last dental X-ray was almost 3 years ago for a severe toothache. Before that I had not had such X-rays for several years. I just had an inlay done on a lower right molar. No X-rays and no anesthetic. Actually there was no pain with the procedures. As we grow older, the root canal fills in with connective tissue and becomes calcified. Thus, the nerve endings are not as bare as when I was much younger.
