In 1895, Wilhelm Roentgen discovered X-rays while experimenting with cathode ray tubes. He found that the rays could pass through human tissue and make bones and metals visible. A week later, he took the first X-ray photograph, of his wife's hand. For his discovery, Roentgen was awarded the 1901 Nobel Prize in Physics. Over time, technologies like computed tomography (CT) scans provided more detailed and three-dimensional views of internal structures, revolutionizing medical imaging.

History and development
In 1895, Wilhelm Roentgen discovered X-rays while experimenting with cathode ray tubes. He noticed a plate glowing in a dark room even when the tube was covered, leading him to take the first X-ray photo of his wife's hand. Roentgen could not explain the nature of these new rays, so he called them X-rays. In 1901, Roentgen received the Nobel Prize in Physics for his discovery. X-rays revolutionized medicine by allowing doctors to see inside the body. Later advances like CT scans provided more detailed 3D views of organs.

Ultrsound
Ultrasound uses high frequency sound waves to produce images of internal organs and structures of the body. It was first used medically in 1940 and works by transmitting sound waves from a probe into the body which bounce off tissues and are received by the probe. Ultrasound is widely used for diagnostic purposes in many fields of medicine and can also be used therapeutically by high intensity sound to treat conditions like kidney stones. While generally safe, some studies have found potential biological effects. Its use for non-medical entertainment purposes and determining fetal gender is controversial due to potential health risks and social issues.

Radiography, also known as X-ray imaging, is a medical imaging technique that uses X-rays to produce images of the internal structures of the body. It has a variety of medical uses including diagnostic imaging to detect fractures or tumors, as well as therapeutic applications in areas like radiation therapy for cancer treatment. Key developments in radiography over time include the introduction of digital X-ray systems and newer modalities like computed tomography (CT), which can generate cross-sectional slices of the body, and mammography for breast imaging.
MRI
MRI uses strong magnets and radio waves to generate detailed images of organs and tissues in the body. It does not use ionizing radiation like CT or PET scans. MRI is widely used to diagnose and monitor diseases by providing better contrast of soft tissues compared to CT. While MRI scans take longer than other imaging techniques and require the patient to be inside a confined tube, newer "open" MRI designs have helped address patient comfort issues. MRI works by detecting the radio signals emitted by hydrogen atoms in the body after they are excited by radio waves in a strong magnetic field.

Diagnostic Imaging By Justin And Sarah [Autosaved]
This document provides an overview of several common medical imaging technologies: X-rays, MRI, ultrasound, and CT scans. X-rays use electromagnetic radiation to form images and were the first form of medical imaging. MRI uses magnetic fields and radio waves to produce detailed images without radiation. Ultrasound uses high frequency sound waves to safely image soft tissues and flowing blood in real time. CT scans combine multiple X-ray images taken from different angles to construct detailed three-dimensional images of the inside of the body. Each technology has advantages and disadvantages for different diagnostic purposes.
X Ray[1]
Wilhelm Roentgen discovered x-rays in 1895 while experimenting with cathode ray tubes. X-rays are a form of electromagnetic radiation that can pass through objects and be used to see inside of them. Roentgen took the first ever x-ray photo, which was of his wife's hand and showed her bones. Both the medical and public reception to x-rays was mixed, with some seeing benefits but others feeling they revealed things that should not be seen. X-rays quickly found widespread use in medicine and became popular due to their ability to reveal the invisible.

INTERVENTIONAL RADIOLOGY BY SAJID EJAZ
Interventional radiology provides minimally invasive image-guided diagnosis and treatment of diseases using catheters and medical imaging. Procedures include angioplasty to unblock arteries, biopsies, draining fluid collections, treating tumors and more. Interventional radiology was pioneered by Charles Dotter in the 1960s and uses imaging techniques like fluoroscopy and angiography to guide procedures. Common procedures include angiography, angioplasty, embolization, stent placement, drainage and biopsy to diagnose and treat conditions.

It then discusses how X-rays have been used in medicine to allow doctors to see inside the body, as well as other developing applications of the technology over time, establishing X-rays as an important scientific discovery that changed the world.
COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY
CT scanning provides cross-sectional images of the body which can be manipulated and reformatted in various planes. It uses X-rays combined with computer processing to generate 3D images of tissues and organs. CT scanning is more detailed than standard X-rays and can detect abnormalities such as tumors, bleeding, fractures and blockages. It has various medical applications for imaging organs like the brain, lungs, kidneys and blood vessels. While it provides advantages over other imaging methods, it also involves exposure to ionizing radiation.
