What is diagnostic radiology and imaging?
Diagnostic radiology is a medical specialty that uses non-invasive imaging techniques to locate and diagnose certain conditions. It generally uses low doses of radiation to generate a detailed image of a specific area.
What is the difference between radiology and radiography?
Radiology includes both imaging techniques (such as X-rays or MRI scans) and treatments (such as radiotherapy). In contrast, radiography is limited to imaging techniques only.
