The PET Scan involves the uptake and use of glucose that has been radioactively labeled and injected.

what is an MRI?

PET scans create finely detailed, three-dimensional images of the inside of the body.

The images can clearly display the body portion under investigation, along with any aberrant areas, and they can draw attention to how well-functioning specific bodily processes are.

To get even more comprehensive images, PET scans and CT scans are frequently combined. It's called a PET-CT scan.

Sometimes they are paired with an MRI scan (known as a PET-MRI scan).

Why are PET scans used?

Instead of just displaying the physical appearance of particular body organs, a PET scan can also reveal how well they are functioning.

When examining proven cases of cancer, PET scans are very useful for figuring out how much the cancer has spread and how well it is responding to treatment.

PET scans are occasionally used to aid in the planning of procedures like a brain operation for epilepsy or a coronary artery bypass graft.

They can also aid in the diagnosis of some disorders, such as dementia, that impair the brain's ability to function normally.

How to be undrestandable for the family?​
aev [14]

The family is the strongest pillar of any society. It is her responsibility to fulfill some missions such as protecting, educating and emotionally supporting her members. Over time, it may undergo some transformations, such as its dismemberment due to changes of city or even because of dissatisfaction in its structure.

The fact is that having a good family relationship allows us to enjoy one of the happiest aspects of our lives: contact with people we truly love. Likewise, these relationships can trigger conflicts, especially when there is authoritarianism and lack of reciprocity of good feelings. Maintaining good family relationships is the key to success in achieving inner peace.

How does one seek the Dao?
yawa3891 [41]

Legendary wise man Laozi said: “It is better not to speak of things you do not understand.” But we here at Godchecker HQ never let that stop us.

Daoism is a highly philosophical school of Chinese belief, formulated by Laozi in the Sixth Century BC and still going strong today. It holds that the Universe, far from being a complex web of tangled events, is actually very very simple. All forms of matter and being are merely manifestations of Yin and Yang, surrounded by Qi energy.

To understand and live in harmony with creation, you must free yourself of all complications and seek ‘The Way’. This cannot be found on any road sign, but is located right next to the Path Of Least Resistance. In Daoism, it is better to let things happen naturally than to strive after them. This is known as Wu Wei.

Laozi taught: “The most effective course of action is always to do nothing.” Which means The Way cannot be found by seeking it. All we can suggest is that you find a gentle stream and gaze upon it until your mind is flowing in harmony. If that doesn’t work, try reading the Dao-De-Jing (Tao-Te-Ching), which is full of wisdom and doesn’t have any long words in it.

The Daoist pantheon of Gods can be somewhat confusing. There is Yuanshi Tianzun, the unreachable infinite entity, followed by the Sanqing who are really manifestations of other Gods or vice versa. Then there is the Jade Emperor who rules over everything and the Sanguan, who also who rule over everything but don’t make so much fuss about it. Meanwhile the Eight Immortals don’t rule anything but have lots of fun. All the Gods have their place and the complete pecking order is so complex that even Heaven itself has a job keeping track of it all. But we’ve done our best.

Godnote: Thanks to the old Wade-Giles system of transliterating Chinese characters, ‘Dao’ is frequently written as ‘Tao’. Modern Pinyin insists that ‘Dao’ is the correct spelling, but of course correcting all the literature would require people actually doing something. Which would be very un-Daoist.
