MEDICAL IMAGING
use in clinical diagnosis
In Treatment
In disease monitoring
Different instruments that are used to determine the
disease of illness

HOW DOES IT WORK?

Uses a MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) is an imaging
technique
It uses magnets in medical settings to produce computer
enhanced images of the soft tissue inside of the human body
help see if theres something is wrong
Or just to look at at the human body structure

CONTINUING
Also by using machines and technology to help send high
frequency magnetic sound or radio waves through a device
that goes through the body
A computer then constructs an image based off of the
timing of the return of the sound waves producing x-ray
images to see whats wrong for whatever

JOBS IN THIS LINE OF WORK ARE...

Radiology
provide an anatomical and physiological detail of the
human body
nuclear medicine
Displays detail of the human bodys physiology,
metabolism and molecular function from the use of
radioactive tracers

CONTINUING
optical imaging
displays real time structural and functional info. of most
hollow organs at the cellular level
MRI
medical imaging procedure that uses strong magnetic
fields and radio waves to produce images of the organs and
internal structures in the body
