Radiology

Radiology is a medical specialty that uses imaging techniques for the diagnosis and monitoring of diseases.

Techniques such as X-ray, ultrasonography, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and mammography allow detailed evaluation of the body’s internal structures.

Radiological examinations are essential for early diagnosis, accurate treatment planning, and disease follow-up. Advanced imaging technologies enable many conditions to be detected quickly, safely, and non-invasively.
