The use of ultrasound as diagnostic technique is expanding and evolving in health care settings. It is the noninvasive medical test that serves as a screening tool to identify disease process. Sonographic examination plays a pivotal role in developing working diagnosis of the patient. This method is available in emergency rooms, physician offices and points of care testing facilities which help in providing fast and accurate care of the patient.
Radiologic Technology or Radiography, or X-Ray as it may also be referred, is the art and science of using radiation to provide images of the bones, organs, soft tissue and vessels that comprise the human body. These x-ray images, that are recorded on x-ray film or displayed on a video monitor, are then used as a tool to diagnose disease, injury or congenital deformity.
