Parent topics
- Imaging [r]: The generation of visual representations of objects, situations or processes, even when the methods used to generate the image are outside the sensitivity of the human eye. [e]
- Medicine [r]: The study of health and disease of the human body. [e]
- Medical imaging [r]: The generation of visual representations of clinically relevant objects. [e]
Subtopics
- Angiography [r]: Radiographic visualization of the internal anatomy of the heart and blood vessels after the intravascular introduction of radiopaque contrast medium. [e]
- Neuroimaging [r]: A group of techniques used to visualize structure and function of nervous systems, especially the vertebrate brain. [e]
- Nuclear medicine [r]: That medical specialty, or subspecialty, concerned with diagnosis and treatment using radioisotopes administered to the patient [e]
- Computed tomography [r]: An imaging technique that computes three-dimensional representations of an object from a series of two-dimensional x-ray images. [e]
- Electroencephalography [r]: A technique that records brain electrical activity non-invasively. [e]
- Functional magnetic resonance imaging [r]: A neuroimaging technique used to monitor task-specific blood oxygenation, primarily in the brain. [e]
- Positron emission tomography [r]: A medical imaging technique using compounds labelled with short-lived positron-emitting radionuclides (such as carbon-11, nitrogen-13, oxygen-15 and fluorine-18) to measure cell metabolism. [e]
- Magnetic resonance imaging [r]: The use of magnetic fields and electromagnetic radiation to visualize internal structures of non-magnetic objects non-destructively. [e]
- Acute radiation syndrome [r]: Disease or death caused by whole-body irradiation, over a short period of time, with a significant quantity of penetrating radiation [e]
- Digital imaging and communications in medicine [r]: A set of technical specifications for putting medical information consisting of images, of all types, into digital form, such that they can be stored in a computer system or transmitted to a remote computer [e]
- Medical physics [r]: The study of medical problems with methods borrowed or derived from physics [e]
- Biomedical engineering [r]: The application of engineering principles to the study and manipulation of biological systems and to the support of health care. [e]
- Biophysics [r]: The study of forces and energies in biological systems. [e]
- X-ray [r]: An ionizing type of electromagnetic radiation whose absorption or diffraction often used for structural investigations of matter. [e]
