Imaging technology is a boon for diagnostic applications in healthcare industry

Imaging Technology is the part of radiology that relates to the scientific aspects of diagnostic and treatment procedures in radiology. Instead of concentrating on the clinical aspect of radiography as witnessed in ordinary diagnostic imaging in real life, the technology refers to the scientific aspect of this equipment and technology utilized. This part of radiology studies all the parts of the human body that are subjected to radiographic procedures like x-ray, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography (CT) scanner, ultrasound (USP) scanner, magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRIS), mammography, or any other imaging technique used for obtaining detailed pictures of internal structures of the body.

Imaging radiology equipment and medical imaging technology used for the purpose of viewing various internal structures and processes of the human body are typically classified into three different types. All these different types of imaging technology have one common factor, which is the use of radiofrequency (RF) radiation to emit images with a specific range of frequencies. These RF energies originate from all kinds of sources including x-rays, gamma rays, protons, electrons, positron decay, atomic nuclei, photons, infrared, and sound waves. Each type of electromagnetic radiation has its own properties that allow it to create unique images from all types of electromagnetic fields.

The main equipment used in digital technology that uses RF technology is the ultrasound machine. The two main types of this machine are the phased array and the vascular/magnetic coagulation. Both have their own advantages and disadvantages in terms of performance and utility. The phased array ultrasound machine is basically a computer-controlled machine that uses the power of radiofrequency to generate alternating current in the ultrasound cavities. This kind of machine generates high-frequency electromagnetic fields that create the image or corona, which then causes the shadowing of these fields onto the target surface being examined using CT scans.
