medical imaging technology

Medical imaging technology involves techniques that doctors use to see inside the body without surgery. These include methods like X-rays, which show bones and dense tissues; MRI scans that use magnetic fields and radio waves to produce detailed images of soft tissues like the brain or muscles; CT scans, which combine X-ray images to create cross-sectional views; and ultrasounds that use sound waves to visualize soft tissues and organs. These tools help diagnose, monitor, and guide treatment of medical conditions by providing clear images of the body's internal structures.
