The Difference Between X-rays, CT Scans, and Other Diagnostic Imaging Methods

Professional Radiology

There is no need to be anxious as imaging tests are non-invasive and painless. For X-rays, it usually takes less than 10 minutes. The magnetic resonance imaging may take longer, depending on the area being scanned. X-ray Also called a radiograph, an X-ray uses radiation to create images of the body.

Researchers Discover Contrast Dye Shortage Affected Assessment of Stroke Patients

Imaging Technology

Injecting or drinking the media contrast helps doctors see blood vessels and organs more clearly in an x-ray or a computed tomography ( CT ) scan. Qureshi said these findings highlight the need to reduce the reliance on radiographic media contrast imaging without compromising patient outcomes.

What Is the Difference Between Radiology and Medical Imaging?

Independent Imaging

Medical imaging is a technology which is used by radiologists , particularly for diagnostic purposes. Although the word “radiology” sounds like it involves radiation, that is not always the case – for example, MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) and ultrasound do not use radiation in their medical imaging technologies.

A brief history of radiology

Radiology Cafe

It all started when Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen discovered X-rays in 1895. After working for weeks in his lab experimenting on the production of ‘strange rays’, which he referred to as ‘X’, he asked his wife Anna Bertha to lend ‘a hand’, the left one to be precise, which he used to produce the first X-ray image.
