Diagnostic radiology is a branch of medical imaging that uses various techniques, such as X-ray, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), ultrasound, and nuclear medicine, to create detailed images of the inside of the body. These images are used by radiologists and other physicians to diagnose and treat a wide range of medical conditions, including fractures, tumors, infections, and other abnormalities. Diagnostic radiology plays a crucial role in modern healthcare by helping healthcare providers to accurately diagnose and monitor patients' conditions, guide minimally invasive procedures, and assess the effectiveness of treatment.
