Lagos University Teaching Hospital LUTH said they have acquired a CT scan equipment that has the capacity to run a check on all organs of the body, from head to toe in less than 10 seconds and fish out a patients death points for immediate treatment. The machine, called the 128-slice Aquillon CT scanner is the first of it's kind in West Africa. Speaking on the machine, the Chief Medical Director, LUTH, Professor Akin Osibogun told Nigerian Tribune: "The Aquillon CT scanner is a 128- scanner and the main advantage it has over other CT scanners of earlier generations is its ability to penetrate deeper into the tissues and organs to show clearly the state of those tissues and organs. Of course the CT scanner is an imaging device and because it is able to provide images of tissues and organs inside the body. We are able to see the state in which those tissues and organs are and we are able to make diagnosis that help us to provide appropriate treatment for the patients. "Earlier generations CT scanners are of course far better in terms of diagnostic capability than the x-ray because they provide clearer definitions than the x-ray but moving to a 128-slice CT scanner, in fact, that it is in terms of where current knowledge is, with regards to ability to get clearer images of tissues and organs that are internal to the body and therefore we are able to make better diagnosis. A further advantage of the 128-CT scanner is its speed with which it works and that means it is able to capture parts of the body that are in motion. “So the Aquillon CT scanner is a very fast machine, able to pick items in motion and that advantage enables us now to study even the heart as it is beating and as it is pumping out blood, so we are able to study the arteries, the veins as the blood flow through them, so if there is a thin blockage or a blockage is developing, the scanner is able to pick it.” “So in coronary heart disease for instance, the scanner is a vast advantage over other imaging devices because we are able to pick them up early and we can then advise that patient on dietary changes or whatever changes that are necessary and if you have the capability, you can actually combine it with what we called interventional cardiology. “You can remove small plague or small particles that are already forming on the way. It is just simply by introducing a catheter, you guide the catheter under the imaging device and go to where you want to go and remove what you want to remove, without opening the chest. The CT scanner can be combined to some extent with the interventional cardiology which we would introduce at a latter point. At this point because we just acquired the equipment, we will be using it largely for diagnostic methods to pick disease conditions and do that in a more precise manner.” Commenting about possible kidney transplant in Nigeria, LUTH Chief MD said that the procedure was possible at the hospital with just N3 million but the donor must be a relative of the patient. “Maybe if you help us make that public, that all they need to do, is to bring a relative who is willing to donate kidneys to them and with N3 million, we work them up, carry out the transplant and follow them up” he stated

President Goodluck Jonathan has been commended for promoting the welfare of women. Mrs. Diezani Allison-Madueke, Minister of Petroleum Resources, in a statement on the recent launch of the book she commissioned, entitled, ‘Goodluck Ebele Jonathan: Champion for Women,’ stated that, over the past two years, Jonathan has appointed women into over 30 per cent of the top positions in government and also put in place programmes and initiatives designed to help some of the country’s poorest women. She said the president has fulfilled his promise in the area of empowering, protecting and creating more opportunities for women. This, according to her, includes recently establishing a directive to get more women appointed to the boards of Federal Parastatals, a move the presidency hopes states and local governments will emulate, thereby transforming Nigeria in a way that has never been done before. The book ‘Champion for Women’ inspects some of the many accomplishments of President Jonathan and his administration, and celebrates the growing power and opportunities for Nigeria’s women. In her comments on the book, Allison-Madueke said, “When President Jonathan became president with the people’s mandate, in May 2011, the process of change he had begun the previous year moved into a higher gear”. http://www.vanguardngr.com/2013/06/diezani-commends-jonathan-for-women-empowerment/?utm_source=&utm_medium=twitter |

I met this girl 3 years ago when she was posted to the office where I work. So she was introduced to the various staff and myself inclusive. From time to time, I used to check on her to know how she is catching up wit work. One tin lead to another and we started dating. At that point, I introduced her to my twin brother thru Facebook cos I hardly see him due to d fact dat his office is very far from mine. My relationship wit her was goin on smoothly. And sometimes, she tells me dat she gisted wit my twin. I didn't really tink dat anytin could happen between them. After about 8 months of our relationship, we had a little misunderstanding and were trying to resolve it, but she always turned down any effort I made towards resolving d problem failed as she was always raining insults on me. Meanwhile, d issues causing d problem wasn't my fault. There was a day I visited my twin brother and while I was there, she called him and told him she was coming. When he told her I was around, she said she can't come. At dat point, I tot maybe she was reporting me to him or she was telling him she was still angry wit me. From then till the next one year, I didn't see her cos she had worked her transfer to a different office and didn't hear from her again, and my brother didn't mentioned her to me either. So a year passed and I decided to call her with d intention of reconciling wit her and proposing marriage to her. So we started getting along well again as before although it was thru fone calls. So I told her I wanted us to see, I had d intention of proposing to her. So she told me dat she would come. Later dat day, she called me and was crying, and said there is something she must tell me cos she didn't want me to hear from som1 else. I asked her what it was. And she said while we had our misunderstanding, she was sleeping wit my twin brother. From d momement she told me she was having sexxxx wit my twin brother, every tin I felt for her died immediately and I told her dat there is no point of us even talking anymore But I couldn't ask my twin brother cos we r not close to each other, we have never attended d same school, neither primary, secondary nor university. So our relationship is near formal. Secondly, its possible she is lieing about sleeping wit him, so if I aske him, he wil see it as a false accusation. So I just decided not to ask him. But the girl has been begging me to forgive her, so I went to seek advice from my boss, he told me to forgive her and not to drive her away from myself. I told him I wil try my best, but dat I cannot date her. Now d problem is dat she is assuming dat we r dating again. And is asking me why am not allowing her come to my house or why I don't go to her house if I say I have fully forgiven her. I told her av forgiven her but I can't date or marry her. She keeps on begging me, now I really don't know how to get her off my back. Dear nairalanders, pls what do I do to get her off my back, cos I can't feel anytin for her. And secondly how do I ask my twin brother so as not to cause a problem between him and I? |
