What is Radiology?
Radiology is a branch of medicine that uses imaging of the body's internal structures to diagnose and treat diseases. Radiology uses a variety of imaging techniques to diagnose, monitor, and plan treatment for diseases. These techniques include X-rays, computed tomography (CT), and ultrasonography (US).
X-rays (Roentgen): Used to evaluate bone fractures, joint problems, and some internal organ diseases.
Computed Tomography (CT): Provides detailed cross-sectional images and is used for detailed examination of internal organs, bones, and soft tissues.
Ultrasound (US): A radiation-free method used for examination of soft tissues, organs, and fetuses.
Bones and Joints: Fractures, dislocations, joint diseases, arthritis, osteoporosis.
Respiratory System: Lung diseases, pneumonia, tumors, pulmonary embolism.
Digestive System: Stomach and intestinal diseases, liver diseases, gallbladder stones.
Urinary System: Kidney stones, urinary tract infections, prostate problems.
Cardiovascular System: Heart diseases, vascular occlusions, aneurysms.
Nervous System: Brain and spinal cord diseases, stroke, tumors.
Women's Health: Breast tumors, ovarian cysts, pregnancy and birth processes.
Child Health: Congenital abnormalities, growth problems.
Breast Cancer: Screening and diagnosis with mammography and ultrasound.
Lung Cancer: Diagnosis and staging with CT and PET-CT.
Colorectal Cancer: Screening and evaluation with colonoscopy and CT.
Prostate Cancer: Evaluation and biopsy guidance with MRI and ultrasound.
Coronary Artery Disease: Evaluation of vascular structures with CT angiography.
Heart Failure: Evaluation of heart functions with ECHO (Echocardiography).
Aortic Aneurysm: Diagnosis and monitoring with CT and MRI.
Fractures and Dislocations: Diagnosis and treatment planning with X-ray.
Arthritis: Evaluation of joint changes with X-ray and MRI.
Low Back and Neck Pain: Diagnosis of spine and disc problems with MRI.
Stroke: Evaluation of brain tissue with CT and MRI.
Multiple Sclerosis (MS): Monitoring brain and spinal cord lesions with MRI.
Headaches: Investigating the causes of headaches with MRI and CT.
COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease): Evaluation of lung changes with CT. Pneumonia: Diagnosis of lung infections with X-ray and CT.
Liver Diseases: Evaluation of the liver with CT, MRI and ultrasound.
Gallbladder Stones: Diagnosis with ultrasound.
Pancreatic Diseases: Evaluation of the pancreas with CT and MRI.
Kidney Stones: Diagnosis with ultrasound and CT. Urinary Tract Infections: Evaluation with ultrasound and radiological examinations.
Thyroid Diseases: Thyroid evaluation with ultrasound and scintigraphy (nuclear medicine).
Trauma: Evaluation of injuries resulting from trauma with X-ray and CT. Emergencies: Use of various imaging modalities for rapid and effective diagnosis.
