Radiology

Radiology is a medical specialty that uses imaging technologies such as X-rays, CT scans, MRI scans, and ultrasound to diagnose and treat diseases. Types of Radiology - Diagnostic Radiology: uses imaging technologies to diagnose diseases - Interventional Radiology: uses imaging technologies to guide minimally invasive procedures Benefits of Radiology - Accurate diagnosis: radiology provides detailed images of internal structures, helping doctors diagnose diseases accurately - Minimally invasive procedures: interventional radiology procedures can be less invasive than traditional surgery - Monitoring treatment: radiology can help track changes in medical conditions over time What is Radiology Used For? Radiology is used to: - Diagnose medical conditions: such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, and neurological disorders - Guide medical procedures: such as biopsies and tumor treatments - Monitor treatment effectiveness: track changes in medical conditions over time Radiology Imaging Modalities - X-ray: uses low-level radiation to produce images of internal structures - CT Scan: uses X-rays and computer technology to produce detailed cross-sectional images - MRI Scan: uses magnetic fields and radio waves to produce detailed images of internal structures - Ultrasound: uses high-frequency sound waves to produce images of internal structures....
