What Are the Different Types of Medical Imaging Courses?

Medical Imaging is the study of interacting with the human body by means of a certain medium (such as X-rays, electromagnetic fields, ultrasound, etc.) to express the structure and density of the internal tissues and organs of the human body in the form of images for diagnostic physicians to provide information based on the images A science for making judgments to evaluate human health, including relatively independent research directions in medical imaging systems and medical image processing. Medical imaging is also called silver halide imaging , because the former film (film) was imaged with a silver halide chemical photosensitizer.

Chinese name: Medical Imaging
Time: 1895
Founder: Roentgen

Place: Germany
Use: Examination of human diseases
Related disciplines: Radiological diagnostics

Medical imaging equipment

Including X-ray imaging instruments, CT (common CT, spiral CT), positron scan (PET), ultrasound (B-ultrasound, color Doppler ultrasound, cardiac ultrasound, three-dimensional ultrasound), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), electrocardiogram , EEG equipment, etc.

Medical imaging applications

Medical imaging can be used as a medical aid for diagnosis and treatment.

To be used as a scientific research method in life science research.

Diagnosis mainly includes fluoroscopy, radiography, CT, MRI, ultrasound, digital subtraction, and angiography.

The main applications of treatment are interventional therapy and radiotherapy.

In addition to medical applications, imaging studies are combined with other academic fields, such as cognitive psychology, linguistics, education, sociology, etc. Such research has gradually taken shape to explore human brain activity during cognitive behaviors, and academics call it cognitive neuroscience.

Many technologies in medical imaging have been widely used in the scientific research industry. The development of medical imaging benefits from the rapid advancement of modern computer technology. Its combination with image processing, computer vision, and pattern recognition technology has created a new branch of computer technology-medical image processing.

Origin and development: In 1895, the German physicist Roentgen discovered the X-ray, and it was soon used for the examination of human diseases, and thus formed radiological diagnostics. In the past 30 years, CT, MRI, ultrasound, and radionuclide imaging equipment have been continuously improved and improved. The nuclear technology of inspection techniques has also been continuously innovated. Imaging diagnosis has evolved from solely relying on morphological changes to diagnoses, integrating morphology, function, and metabolism Change into an integrated diagnostic system. At the same time, new technologies such as magnetic source imaging of the heart and brain and new branches of science such as molecular imaging are constantly emerging, and the scope of imaging diagnostics is still developing and expanding.

Medical Imaging Related Content

"Medical Imaging" (6th Edition) is revised on the basis of the 5th edition of the "Tenth Five-Year Plan" national planning textbook and won the National Medicine Excellent Textbook Award. The revised principles are guided by the Outline of China's Medical Education Reform and Development and the National Opinions on the Construction of General Higher Education Textbooks. Strive to reflect the achievements of teaching content and curriculum reform in the new century; positioned as a five-year clinical specialty, used to train general practitioners, rather than medical imaging specialists; follow the teaching materials "Three Basics", "Five Natures" and "Three Specific "The writing principles require. And give full consideration to the feedback and suggestions of multiple institutions using the fifth edition of this textbook. Based on the above principles and requirements, the following revisions have been made in the 6th edition of Medical Imaging: the frame has been adjusted. The 6th edition is divided into imaging diagnostics and interventional radiology to show the differences and improvements between the two. Understanding of the characteristics of interventional radiology and its clinical significance. In the diagnostic imaging article, change the first five chapters of the fifth edition to the nine chapters of the sixth chapter. The first chapter is the imaging technology and clinical application (that is, the general theory of the 5th edition), which has great changes and a lot of deletions. Focus on simplifying the description of the imaging principles, equipment and inspection methods of the four imaging techniques. The content of image interpretation and image diagnosis thinking has also been modified, so that students can master the methods of image observation and analysis and the principles of image diagnosis. Chapters 2 to 9 describe the image diagnosis of different systems. Among them, the circulatory system eliminates X-ray diagnostic content that is not dominant in actual diagnostic work. The mammary gland is an independent chapter to reflect the importance of breast disease, especially breast cancer with an increasing incidence, and the importance of imaging diagnosis. After each chapter of organ disease diagnosis, comparisons and preferences of various imaging examinations are added so that the most appropriate examination method can be selected for the diagnosis of the disease of the organ. In addition, pediatric imaging diagnostics has been added as a tenth chapter to enable students to understand and understand the characteristics of pediatric imaging.

Interventional radiology is divided into two chapters: vascular interventional technology and non-vascular interventional technology.
