Innovation Process in Medical Imaging

This article reviews improving process in medical imaging thanks to innovation and technology. Medical imaging is the technique and process used to create images of human body for clinical purposes or medical science. Since Wilhelm Roentgen's discovery of X-rays in 1895, medical imaging has undergone near continuous innovation. After the Second World War, multiple generations of innovations and new discoveries, focused on the interaction of computerization and imaging technologies, took place in X-ray, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, nuclear imaging, and ultrasound-positioned medical imaging, led to transforming healthcare science. Medical imaging has brought a high sense of vision into medical science, leading to an extensive change in healthcare system.
