B.Sc – Radiology & Imaging Technology
Overview
Radiology and Imaging Technology is a vital field within medicine, focusing on the use of various imaging techniques to diagnose and treat diseases. It encompasses a broad spectrum of technologies and methodologies aimed at visualizing the internal structures of the body. These include X-rays, CT scans, MRI, ultrasound, nuclear medicine imaging, and PET scans.The primary purpose of radiology is diagnostic, helping physicians detect and understand conditions ranging from fractures and tumors to internal injuries and diseases. Each imaging modality has specific strengths and is chosen based on the clinical questions and the part of the body being examined.In addition to diagnosis, radiology also plays a significant role in therapeutic procedures. Techniques such as image-guided biopsies, radiofrequency ablation, and targeted cancer treatments rely on imaging for precise localization and monitoring.Safety is paramount in radiology, with strict protocols in place to minimize radiation exposure during procedures involving ionizing radiation. Radiology technologists and radiologists undergo specialized training to ensure patient safety while obtaining necessary diagnostic information.A Bachelor of Science in Radiology & Imaging Technology is a specialized program within the field of medical sciences. It focuses on using various imaging techniques to diagnose and treat medical conditions. These techniques include X-rays, CT scans, MRI, ultrasound, nuclear medicine imaging, and PET scans.The field of radiology and imaging technology continues to evolve with advancements in technology and techniques.
