11. RADIOGRAPHY & IT’S MODALITIES TYPES OF EQUIPMENT Cat Scan (CT) Computed Tomography Computed tomography (CT) is a medical imaging method employing tomography. Digital geometry processing is used to generate a three-dimensional image of the inside of an object from a large series of two- dimensional X-ray images taken around a single axis of rotation. The word "tomography" is derived from the Greek tomos (slice) and graphein (to write).medical imagingtomography Digital geometry processingthree-dimensionalimageX-rayGreek

17. RADIOGRAPHY & IT’S MODALITIES TYPES OF EQUIPMENT Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI ) Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is primarily used in medical imaging to visualize the structure and function of the body. It provides detailed images of the body in any plane. MR has much greater soft tissue contrast than computed tomography (CT) making it especially useful in neurological, musculoskeletal, cardiovascular, and oncological imaging. Unlike CT it uses no ionizing radiation, but uses a powerful magnetic field to align the magnetization of hydrogen atoms in the body.medical imaging contrastcomputed tomographyneurologicalmusculoskeletal cardiovascularoncologicalionizing radiationmagnetichydrogenatoms

22. RADIOGRAPHY & IT’S MODALATIES Interventional Radiography Interventional radiology (abbreviated IR or sometimes IVR or VIR) is a subspecialty of radiology in which minimally invasive procedures are performed using image guidance. Some of these procedures are done for purely diagnostic purposes (e.g., angiogram), while others are done for treatment purposes (e.g., angioplasty radiology angiogram angioplasty

29. New Trends PET SCAN Positron emission tomography (PET) is a nuclear medicine imaging technique which produces a three- dimensional image or map of functional processes in the body. The system detects pairs of gamma rays emitted indirectly by a positron- emitting radioisotope, which is introduced into the body on a metabolically active molecule.nuclear medicineimaginggamma rayspositron
