Radiology is the department that uses medical imaging to diagnose and sometimes also treat diseases within the body. These radiology tests help the doctors to see the inner view of the body that help them in treating different problems. A variety of imaging techniques such as X-ray radiography, ultrasound, computed tomography (CT), nuclear medicine including positron emission tomography (PET), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are used to diagnose and/or treat diseases. Radiologists also have a broad spectrum of diagnostic tests which includes x-rays, ultrasound, bone mineral densitometry, fluoroscopy, mammography, nuclear medicine, CT and MRI. Radiology is a branch of medicine that deals with radiant energy in the diagnosis and treatment of various diseases that affects the individuals life. This field can be portioned into two broad areas where the diagnosis is considered is called the diagnostic radiology and where the diagnosis and treatment is considered is called interventional radiology. A physician who specializes in radiology is called radiologist.

The field Radiology is more essential and plays a very important role in the diagnosis of many diseases, particularly cancer.

In any case diagnosing plays the crucial role as it helps the doctors or the surgeons treat the patients with the help of the right diagnosis. The right diagnosis can help the doctor prescribe the right medication and that in turn can help in easy recovery and fast recovery of the people. Interventional radiology is the department of (usually minimally invasive) medical procedures with the guidance of imaging technologies. The advanced technology helps in the identification and treating the diseases in the body thereby providing disease-free happy patient history.
