This blog delves into the captivating realm of radiology and the intricate art of crafting diagnostic images with X-ray precision. From the subtlest nuances of bone structures to the shadowy landscapes of soft tissues, the precision of X-rays in creating images is akin to an artist’s brush painting upon a canvas.

If you work in radiology in a community healthcare facility, you may have low demand for pediatric medical imaging. I am passionate about improving the performance and interpretation of pediatric medical imaging. The balance of dose and image quality is even more important in pediatric medical imaging.

Today, the same should be said of AI ROI image-guided technology and the radiation reduction and protection it provides. This is no less the case for interventional imaging. Interventional imaging extends the reach of human vision and enables greater patient care. That technology is now standard – as it should be.

Key Points: Weight bearing CT (WBCT) can detect signs of osteoarthritis (OA), such as osteophytes, subchondral cysts, and joint space narrowing better than radiographs. Emerging evidence suggests WBCT reveals meniscal extrusion not detected by MRI and WBCT arthrography visualizes meniscal tears.
