A glimpse to the "WORLD OF RADIOLOGY"

Dear friends,

                     

                     This blog is a small attempt  to share my ideas during my academic career. this will be a common plat form to discuss,share and update our knowledge about radiology and medical imaging Technics.and for improving academic excellence .i hope this  will guide you to mold a good radiologic profession.                                                 

                                                             As you know  Radiology comprises different imaging modalities and processes to image human body for diagnostic and treatment purposes and therefore has an important role in the improvement of public health in all population groups. Furthermore, medical imaging is justified also to follow the course of a disease already diagnosed and/or treated. Area of medical imaging is very complex and, depending on a context, requires supplementary activities of medical doctors, medical physicists, bio medical engineers as well as technicians.
                                                

                                                                                                       Medical imaging, especially X-ray based examinations and ultrasonography, is crucial in every medical setting and at all levels of heath care. In public health and preventive medicine as well as in curative medicine, effective decisions depend on correct diagnosis. Though medical/clinical judgment maybe sufficient in treatment of many conditions, the use of diagnostic imaging services is paramount in confirming, correctly assessing and documenting course of the disease as well as in assessing response to treatment.

                          With improved health care policy and increasing number of available medical equipment, the number of radiological medical procedures are increasing considerably. Effective and of good quality imaging is important for further medical decision making and can reduce unnecessary procedures. Reports from some countries indicate that a significant portion of all abdominal surgical interventions (explorative laparotomy) may have been avoided if simple diagnostic imaging services such as ultrasound had been available.

    i would like to share may knowledge as much as possible with and hope you will also share your knowledge with me.
