telephone is to the mankind. The technological advancement which have also benefited the mankind is in the Radiology field. Radiology is the medical specialty directing medical imaging technologies to diagnose and sometimes treat diseases. It is more on the technology-intensive imaging with high frequency sound waves‚ magnetic fields‚ and radioactivity. When it is concerned‚ this field requires more of the technological advancement‚ as it will be easier for us to understand the human mechanism better

MRI Background info Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) otherwise known as Magnetic resonance tomography (1) is a scan that uses a magnetic field‚ radio wave‚ and computer‚ to produce an image of an individual internal structure (Anatomy) (2). The body contains more than 50% of water. MRI uses super strong Magnetic field to align hydrogen nuclei or protons found in water (H2O) all over the body (1‚3‚ &‚ 4). When a person is placed into the scanning machine hydrogen nuclei or protons align

other types of radiation‚ we are able to diagnose and treat many diseases and injuries. Both diagnostic and therapeutic radiology involve the use of ionizing radiation (Beta‚ Alpha‚ Gamma‚ and x-rays)‚ with the exception of the MRI‚ which uses a magnetic field rather than radiation. Radiology is classified as being either diagnostic or therapeutic. Diagnostic radiology is an evaluation of the body‚ by means of static or dynamic images or anatomy‚ physiology‚ and alterations caused by injury or

Many recent imaging modalities in medicine‚ such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)‚ computed tomography (CT)‚ digital mammography also generate images directly in digital form. Diagnostic imaging is an invaluable tool in medicine today. These imaging modalities provide an effective means for non-invasive mapping of the anatomy of a subject. These technologies have greatly increased

Last week‚ we have given the opportunity to take tour in the Davao Doctors Hospital to see the Specializations in Radiologic Technology such as Magnetic Resonance Imaging‚ Computed Tomography‚ Nuclear Medicine and etc. After seeing the different modalities‚ I felt happy because it is my first time to take a look and encounter any kinds of machine. Before‚ I was expecting that being a radiologic technologist is a hard job. But then when I had given the chance to see and know what their works are

the radiologic technologists are performs imaging of the human body for diagnosis or treating medical problems. It desires the knowledge of education in anatomy‚ specialties with patient history and finding to transform picture into diagnose. Radiologic technologists perform diagnostic imaging examination. They perform imaging examinations such as x-rays‚ while technologists use other imaging modalities such as computed tomography‚ magnetic resonance imaging‚ and mammography. Radiologic technicians
