imaging methods
Imaging methods are techniques used to create visual representations of the inside of the body or objects. They include X-rays, which use radiation to produce images of bones and tissues; MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging), which uses strong magnets and radio waves to visualize soft tissues like the brain and muscles; CT scans (Computed Tomography), combining X-ray images from different angles for detailed cross-sections; ultrasound employs sound waves to view internal organs, often used during pregnancy. These methods help doctors diagnose and monitor health conditions without invasive procedures.
