Radiology is a medical specialty that uses imaging technology to examine different parts of the body.
Imaging examinations can provide doctors with information that may assist in understanding a patient’s condition. Depending on the clinical situation, an examination may be requested to investigate symptoms, assess an injury, support a diagnosis or monitor an existing condition.
The appropriate examination is determined by the patient’s doctor or specialist based on their medical history, symptoms and clinical requirements.
Medical imaging is generally used together with other aspects of a patient’s assessment, including physical examinations, laboratory testing and specialist consultations.
