Relevance to biology (PET Scan) Today‚ most PET scans are performed on instruments that are combined PET and CT scanners. The combined PET/CT scans provide images that pinpoint the location of abnormal metabolic activity within the body. The combined scans have been shown to provide more accurate diagnoses than the two scans performed separately. Nuclear medicine is a branch of medical imaging. It uses small amounts of radioactive material to diagnose and determine the severity of various types

X rays and Ultrasound are two of the main imaging techniques used in radiography. For the purposes of this essay‚ we will look at conventional x-rays and diagnostic ultrasound. Conventional x rays are non-invasive diagnostic techniques that are used to capture images of the body’s organs and bones. Diagnostic ultrasounds are high frequency sound waves to create an image of soft issues in the body such as muscles‚ joints‚ and internal organs. As examined below‚ while both are used in diagnostic radiography
