Types of body scans

🩻 X-ray is commonly used to detect bone fractures and lung-related issues.


🧠 CT Scan provides detailed cross-sectional images and helps in identifying fractures, internal injuries, and trauma-related conditions.

🧲 MRI is best for evaluating soft tissues, including the brain, muscles, ligaments, and internal organs, without using ionizing radiation.


Each imaging modality has its own importance, and choosing the right scan plays a vital role in accurate diagnosis and patient care. As healthcare professionals, it’s our responsibility to understand and apply these tools effectively.
