what are x-rays used for?
what are their strengths and weaknesses?
- used to see dense tissue
2. only a small dose of radiation, but you get poor resolution
what are computed tomography CT scan/ CAT scan used for?
What are their strengths and weaknesses?
- can make 3D images
2. more detail but higher dosage of radiation and more expensive
what is sonography used for?
What are their strengths and weaknesses?
- viewing a pregnancy or internal organs
2. portable, imporving, pretty inexpensive
what are magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) used for?
What are their strengths and weaknesses
- seeing inside body at organs
2. very good resolution on any body tissues, but very high cost and time intensive
