Description

Ultrasound

Uses high-frequency sound waves to produce images of internal structures in real time

Computed Tomography (CT)

Utilizes X-ray technology To produce images of the body's internal structures that can be used to diagnose diseases and other medical conditions

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)

Utilizes strong magnetic fields and radio waves to create detailed images of the body's internal structures

Positron Emission Tomography (PET)
