(Hz) The standard SI unit of frequency. Definition: The number of repetitions of a periodic process per unit time. It is equal to the old unit cycles or oscillations each second of a simple harmonic motion. The unit is named for the German physicist Heinrich Rudolf Hertz. Larger units are: kilohertz (KHz) = 1 000 Hz = 103 Hertz megahertz (MHz) = 1 000 KHz = 106 Hertz gigahertz (GHz) = 1 000 MHz = 109 Hertz terahertz (THz) = 1 000 GHz = 1012 Hertz petahertz (PHz) = 1 000 THz = 1015 Hertz exahertz (EHz) = 1 000 PHz = 1018 Hertz See also Oscillation, Coherence, Duty Cycle, Cine Mode, and System International. •
Hexabrix is an ionic dimer contrast medium. Intravascular injection of Hexabrix enhances those vessels in the path of the flow, permitting radiographic visualization of the internal structures of the human body until significant hemodilution occurs. The contrast agent is transported through the circulatory system to the kidneys and is excreted unchanged in the urine. Hexabrix is used primarily for peripheral arteriography
