Where We are Standing in the Choice of Most Effective Radiological Imaging for Patient’s Benefits?
Journal Title: International Journal of Radiology and Radiation Oncology - Year 2015, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
Today the radiologic investigations are the indispensable diagnostic tools in medical care especially in emergency, oncology and pediatry departments. The imaging has the benefits for the patients follow-up as well as the diagnostic significance. In the last fifteen years the advanced imaging techniques in neuroradiology provides very important data of the brain such as metabolites with MR Spectroscopy, microvascularity with perfusion imaging, integrity of white matter with diffusion tensor imaging and network of cortex with functional imaging.
