Track 2: Radiography

Radiography is an imaging technique using X-rays to view the internal form of an object. When a beam of X-rays form an electromagnetic radiation, are passed towards the object and then captured by detector behind that object depend on structural composition. The generation of flat two dimensional images by this technique is called projectional radiography. Applications of radiography include medical or diagnostic radiography and industrial radiography. Body is made up of various substances with differing densities, X-rays can be used to reveal the internal structure of the body on film by highlighting these differences using attenuation, or the absorption of X-ray photons by the denser substances (like calcium-rich bones).

Track 3: Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a medical imaging technique used in radiology to form pictures of the anatomy and the physiological processes of the body in both health and disease. MRI scanners use strong magnetic fields, radio waves to generate images of the body. MRI does not use x-rays or ionizing radiations. MRI may still be seen as a better choice than a CT scan. MRI is widely used in hospitals and clinics for medical diagnosis, staging, without using radiations. , MRI scans typically take longer and are louder, and they usually need the subject to enter a narrow, confining tube. In addition, people with some medical implants or other non-removable metal inside the body may be unable to undergo an MRI examination safely.

MRI development in the 1970s and 1980s, MRI has proven to be a highly versatile imaging technique. While MRI is most prominently used in diagnostic medicine and biomedical research, it also may be used to form images of non-living objects. MRI scans are capable of producing a variety of chemical and physical data, in addition to detailed spatial images.

Track 4: Nuclear medicine

Nuclear medicine is a medical specialty in which disease is diagnosed and treated by the application of radioactive substances. Nuclear medicine, in a sense, is "radiology done inside out" or "endoradiology" because it records radiation emitting from within the body rather than radiation that is generated by external sources like X-rays. Nuclear medicine is also known as physiological imaging modality; because it is differ from radiology (nuclear medicine is not emphasis on imaging anatomy).Single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and positron emission tomography (PET) scans are the two most common imaging modalities in nuclear medicine.

In nuclear medicine procedure, patient will inhale, swallow, or being injected with a radiopharmaceutical (radioactive material) after taking it patient will lie and external detectors (gamma cameras) capture and form an images from the radiation emitted by that radiopharmaceuticals.

As a result, nuclear medicine and imaging procedures are considered non-invasive and relatively safe. Their effectiveness in diagnosing disease means that the benefits normally outweigh the risks.

Effective doses can range from 6 μSv (0.006 mSv) for a 3 MBq chromium-51 EDTA measurement of glomerular filtration rate to 37 mSv (37,000 μSv) for a 150 MBq thallium-201 non-specific tumor imaging procedure. The common bone scan with 600 MBq of technetium-99m-MDP has an effective dose of approximately 3.5 mSv (3,500 μSv).

Track 5: Ultrasonography

Ultrasonography is also known as diagnostic sonography or medical solography’s a. Ultrasonography application of ultrasounds to form a diagnostic imaging, which is used to see internal body structure such as tendons, muscles, joints blood vessels. Its objective is to find the source of a disease or to exclude any pathology. The practice of examining pregnant women by using ultrasound is known as obestric ultrasound. Widely used ultrasound sound waves with frequency of >20,000HZ (higher than those audible to humans).

Ultrasonic images, also known as sonograms, are made by sending pulses of ultrasound into tissue using a probe. The sound echoes off the tissue; with different tissues reflecting varying degrees of sound. These echoes are recorded and displayed as an image to the operator. Different images are formed by sonographc instruments; most well-known image type is a B-mode image, in which acoustic impedance of a two-dimensional cross-section of tissue. Other types of image can display blood flow, motion of tissue over time, the location of blood, the presence of specific molecules, the stiffness of tissue, or the anatomy of a three-dimensional region.
