Abstract

Over the years, medical imaging has become an inherent part of modern medicine and biomedical engineering. Various imaging methods, which provide the detailed insight into human body interior, are widely used in clinical and preclinical practice. They enable the accurate diagnosis of complex pathological states, planning and performing of challenging surgical operations, tissue engineering, design of medical devices and much more. The area of medical imaging is very complex, as it is comprised of different imaging modalities and it keeps expanding due to rapid development of modern technologies. An overview of most important imaging techniques, containing references that describe various applications of each of the methods, is given first. More detail is given on the following methods: radiography, computed tomography (CT), ultrasound imaging, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), mammography and positron emission tomography (PET). Two detailed examples accompany the overview, which are related to monitoring of osteogenesis in large animals using CT and application of imaging techniques in diagnosis and management of osteoporosis.
