Seeing Beyond the Scan: Second Opinions in Radiology

Radiology is a cornerstone of modern medicine and plays a crucial role in diagnosing medical conditions. With non-invasive or minimally invasive techniques, radiology charts a path to the most effective treatment plans while also monitoring disease progression.

Radiological imaging, include X-rays, CT scans, MRI, ultrasounds and PET scans. Collectively, they help identify organ abnormalities, fractures, tumors, and other internal medical conditions that are not visible to the naked eye.

Radiologists undergo specialized and extensive training. They are often the first clinician to find and confirm the presence of disease and use multiple scans over long periods of time to determine how much a disease has responded to a course of treatment.

A cancer diagnosis is well beyond a “a medical journey.” It’s more like an odyssey that needs advanced navigational equipment.
