ABSTRACT
The introduction of advanced imaging technologies has improved significantly the quality of medical care available to patients. Non-invasive imaging modalities allow a physician to make increasingly accurate diagnoses and render precise and measured modes of treatment. Current uses of imaging technologies include laboratory medicine, surgery, radiation therapy, nuclear medicine, and diagnostic radiology. This paper provides an overview of most of the popular imaging modalities currently in clinical use. It is hoped that a general understanding of the modality from which an image is derived will help researchers in the subsequent analysis of the image data.
