Musculoskeletal Imaging

Musculoskeletal imaging is a branch of medical imaging that focuses on diagnosing conditions related to bones, joints, and soft tissues, such as muscles and ligaments. Techniques used in this field include X-rays, MRI (magnetic resonance imaging), and CT scans. These tools help doctors identify injuries, diseases, and abnormalities, such as fractures, arthritis, or tumors. By providing detailed images of the musculoskeletal system, imaging plays a crucial role in guiding treatment plans and improving patient outcomes, allowing for more accurate assessments of conditions that affect movement and quality of life.
