Answer to Question 1

A Registered Health Information Administrator (RHIA) has a bachelor's or master's degree and has passed a certification exam offered by AHIMA.

Answer to Question 2

Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) can be used to more precisely focus a beam of radiation on a tumor. It can be attached to the machine delivering radiation, creating three-dimensional images so that doctors can compare the latest images with the earlier images they used to plan the treatment. Doctors can then adjust the patient's position. Traditionally, a patient's skin was marked for radiation treatment based on earlier tests; now, the CBCT can adjust the treatment in real time.

The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
