Conventional medical and dental radiography uses X-rays to visualize the internal organ and structures of the body - including film-based techniques as well as digital technologies http://bit.ly/2JEdoaG

A computed tomography or
#CTscan uses X-rays to get 2D and 3D images of the body, showing details of organs which are not available on conventional radiographs http://bit.ly/33eJgut#InternationalDayofRadiologypic.twitter.com/MoEw5N4SYV

Fluoroscopy is an example of X-ray guided intervention. It works like a video showing real-time liquid X-ray dyes (i.e. “contrast”) passing through different organs and/or objects moving within the body http://bit.ly/2NfhxnD

X-ray-guided interventions are used for a variety of procedures, incl. performing biopsies, placing tubes, performing fluid drainage, inserting catheters in arteries and veins and treating conditions such as heart problems, blood clots, tumors, trauma, etc.pic.twitter.com/Aem96Lo1CG

For many years after Roentgen discovered X-rays in 1895 they remained the only method for visualizing the interior of the body. Today X-rays provide an essential tool for diagnosis and treatment of disease and injuries

Using radiation in medical imaging can save lives and prevent the need for more invasive procedures, but inappropriate use may lead to unnecessary and unintended radiation doses for patients http://bit.ly/33hA48#

If patients and families are not properly informed about the risks and benefits of an imaging procedure, they may make choices that are more harmful rather than beneficial to their health - such as refusing a CT scan that is needed or demanding a scan that is not justifiedpic.twitter.com/xsPJd6C2ZE
