Why is radiology important?

Radiology technology enables physicians to make accurate and early diagnoses, select the best treatment plans, and if the treatment involves surgery, even practice in advance. By using radiographic imaging and computers, surgeons can have a dress rehearsal. Three-dimensional images can be rotated; images can be manipulated to peel away organs and isolate a single structure - all on a computer screen. Today, 59% of the U.S. population receives imaging radiology service each year. Some of the most important and recent advances in medicine are occurring in neuroradiology. Interventional radiology is making minimally invasive surgery the option of choice. In it's first 100 years, radiology turned medicine upside down. In the next hundred years, radiology will turn medicine inside out!
