Highlights of “Radiology and Imaging Technology”

​

“Radiology” is a branch of medicine that uses radiation and imaging technology to diagnose and treat disease. The process involves multiples tests, which require projecting and picturing various parts of the body. Radiology is useful in several operations such as CT scan, MRI, X-ray, ultrasound, etc required during diagnosis.

​

Radiology is the principle management process of all the disease. It also contains a variety of tools and techniques for detection, analyzing, and curing. Moreover, it is the way through which the doctor finds out detailed information about disease-related structural changes. We all know early diagnosis can help save much life, and without it, there can be no proper diagnosis, thus no treatment.

​

It allows the radiologic technologist to produce images of various internal parts of the body, to aid in the detection of injury or disease by using radiations. Radiology is central to the clinical practice of medicine across a wide range of disciplines. Radiology and imaging technologist who operates the radiology machine for required performance resulting in the quality medical imaging test result.

​

As the Radiology and Imaging Technologist is one of the healthcare provider They act as key play-role in producing good quality image with minimal radiation to the patient and also they provides good quality image for the Radiologists doctor to interpretate the radiological image to give exact diagnostic information of the patient for further treatment.

​

Treating disease using radiation oncology or carrying out the image-guided therapeutic intervention. Also, performing a task that results in minimal invasion.

​

Recommends people if they require any more treatment or examination, if necessary, with the consultation of your doctor. Referring to other test results with imaging results and co-relating them for proper analysis.

Importance of radiology in treatment wise

​

X-rays

​

Radiology first came to light because of X-ray; after this, it took medical science to another level. It helped us see our body’s internal parts, which helped diagnose bone and disease that would not have been possible.

​

X-rays use radiation to look for dysfunctional objects or bones inside the body that may cause the problem. This process allows the doctor to analyze any bone structure mistake, which can help treat you better.

​

Other picturing or imaging

​

Besides X-ray, radiology helps in imaging procedures in other imaging processes as well. Through this technology, doctors and surgeons can access real-time pictures of the inside body.

​

Radiology and Imaging Technologist/Radiographers importance;

​

For providing better treatment, doctors require correct diagnosis results. Thus they largely depend on radiographers. Radiographers’ roles are not only limited to carry out to produce diagnostic Imaging. But they also provide mental and physical support to patients. Moreover, this support helps the patient prepare for their test.

​

One of the radiographer’s essential roles is, it clears patients’ doubts and answers their treatment-related questions. Furthermore, they are experienced in dealing with sensitive patients to bring them in a better position.
