FAQ's

 Radiology is a medical specialty that uses medical imaging techniques to diagnose and treat various diseases and conditions.

 Medical imaging techniques used in Radiology include X-rays, CT scans (computed tomography), MRI (magnetic resonance imaging), ultrasound, nuclear medicine, and fluoroscopy.

X-rays are 2D images that use a small dose of ionizing radiation to visualize bones and certain organs. CT scans use a series of X-ray images taken from different angles to create detailed cross-sectional images of the body.

 MRI can provide highly detailed images of soft tissues, such as the brain, muscles, ligaments, and tendons. It is especially useful in evaluating neurological disorders, joint injuries, and soft tissue abnormalities.

Medical imaging techniques that use ionizing radiation, such as X-rays and CT scans, do expose the body to small amounts of radiation. The benefits of accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment usually outweigh the minimal risks associated with radiation exposure. Radiologists always use the lowest possible dose of radiation necessary for imaging.

The procedure varies depending on the type of imaging. For X-rays and CT scans, you will lie on a table, and the machine will move around you to take images. For MRI, you will lie on a table that slides into the MRI machine, which is a large tube-like structure. For ultrasound, a gel is applied to the skin, and a transducer is moved over the area of interest.

The time it takes to receive results varies depending on the complexity of the exam and the radiology practice’s protocols. In some cases, results may be available immediately for urgent cases, while others may take a day or two.

The preparation requirements depend on the specific imaging procedure. For some tests like CT scans, you may need to fast for a few hours before the exam, while others like X-rays and ultrasound typically do not require fasting.
