Diagnostic imaging and radiology involve the use of specialised machinery to capture images and scans of the inside of your body, aiding healthcare professionals in diagnosing various medical conditions. Different machines focus on different parts and areas of the body and show different levels of detail. What scans and tests you are given will depend on your specific symptoms and conditions as well as factors personal to you, for example your age and weight.
