Medical Imaging Investment
Medical imaging is the technique and process used to create images of the human body (or parts and function thereof) for clinical purposes (medical procedures seeking to reveal, diagnose or examine disease) or medical science (including the study of normal anatomy and physiology).
An extremely sophisticated field that borrowed early techniques and algorithms from those developed in remote sensing. It is now possible to record images of the brain, other organs, and even the valves on an operating heart without invasive procedures.
A series of non-invasive imaging techniques which use projected x-rays, radiowaves, sound waves, or magnetic fields to produce two or three dimensional maps of various portions of the body.
