AVN collapse prediction by Modified Kerboul method

Dr Balaji Anvekar FRCR

BACKGROUND The hypothesis is that the combined necrotic angle measurement from magnetic resonance imaging scans predicts the subsequent risk of collapse in hips with femoral head necrosis. With use of the modified method of Kerboul et al., With use of the modified method of Kerboul et al.,

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.
