Medical Imaging belongs to the clinical medicine category.
Medical imaging is the application of medical imaging technology for the diagnosis of human disease, medical imaging technology guided by the application of interventional equipment for minimally invasive diagnosis of human disease and treatment of medical disciplines. Medical imaging includes diagnostic imaging and interventional radiology, the latter is divided into interventional diagnostics and interventional therapy.
Medical imaging doctors rely on a variety of imaging technologies to obtain medical imaging information about patients, including X-ray, CT, MRI, ultrasound, etc., which can help doctors diagnose and treat diseases. Medical imaging can help doctors, and plays a vital role in determining the scope of surgery before surgery, and reducing the time and risk of surgery.
Modern medicine focuses on early diagnosis and individualized treatment, and the high precision and detailed image information of medical imaging can provide doctors with more valuable reference information, which can help realize precision medicine. Medical imaging plays an important role in disease diagnosis, treatment and prevention, and has made great contributions to human health.
Major courses in Medical Imaging:
1. Local Anatomy: It is a branch of anatomy that focuses on the structure and function of various organs and parts of the human body. It focuses on the study of the organization and structure of specific parts, not the overall anatomy. Through the understanding of local anatomy, it can improve people's understanding of the structure of the human body and its mode of operation, providing the basis for medical research and clinical practice at the same time.
2, histology and embryology: the main study of the structure and composition of tissues, it is through the use of microscopes and other instruments, the study of the morphology and structure of tissue cells and organs and their interrelationships, as well as the physiological functions of different organs. Embryology is the study of the developmental process of living things, also known as developmental biology. Its objects of study include the fertilized egg, embryo, fetus and so on.
3. Physiology: Physiology is the science that studies the functions and mechanisms of the internal parts and systems of living organisms, and is the basis of many disciplines such as cell and histology, anatomy and biochemistry. It studies the functional principles and regulatory mechanisms of various systems of the organism, including cardiovascular, neurological, immunological, endocrine, respiratory, digestive, urinary and other systems.
