In many cases, an abdominal CT is done with a pelvis CT. The scan should take less than 30 minutes. You need to have a special dye, called contrast, put into your body before some exams. Contrast helps certain areas show up better on the x-rays. Contrast can be given through a vein (IV) in your hand or forearm.
A wave is defined as a burst of emotions, a swell along the surface caused by wind, a sudden occurrence of something, or a back and forth motion with your hand. When you suddenly feel really sad, this is an example of a wave of sadness. The water movement that you use to go surfing in is an example of a wave.
Waves are a wiggle in space cause by a vibration or disturbance. They have the ability to carry energy from one location to another. There are two different types of waves; transverse and longitudinal. A transverse wave is when the wave is vibrating perpendicular to the direction the wave is traveling. A longitudinal wave, also called a compression wave, is a wave in which the vibration is in the same direction as that in which the wave is traveling. How frequently a wave or vibration occurs during a span of time, determines the waves frequency. Frequency is the number of waves per unit time.
