Medical imaging includes technologies such as magnetic resonance imaging, radiology, ultrasound, radiography, medical photography, elastography, thermography, computed tomography and mammography. Imaging diagnostics are used for detecting cancer and its management in all the phases. Medical imaging is a significant part of clinical protocols related with cancer and it helps in furnishing functional, structural, metabolic, and morphological information. In combination with other diagnostic tools like in vitro fluids and tissue analysis, medical imaging helps in undertaking clinical decisions.
