A radiologist interpreting magnetic resonance imaging Dr. Macintyre's X-Ray Film (1896). Radiology (/ ˌ r eɪ d ɪ ˈ ɒ l ə dʒ i / rey-dee-ol-uh-jee) is the medical specialty that uses medical imaging to diagnose diseases and guide treatment within the bodies of humans and other animals.
Medical imaging is the technique and process of imaging the interior of a body for clinical analysis and medical intervention, as well as visual representation of the function of some organs or tissues . Medical imaging seeks to reveal internal structures hidden by the skin and bones, as well as to diagnose and treat disease.
Radiography is an imaging technique using X-rays, gamma rays, or similar ionizing radiation and non-ionizing radiation to view the internal form of an object.Applications of radiography include medical ("diagnostic" radiography and "therapeutic radiography") and industrial radiography.
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a medical imaging technique used in radiology to generate pictures of the anatomy and the physiological processes inside the body. MRI scanners use strong magnetic fields, magnetic field gradients, and radio waves to form images of the organs in the body.

Musculoskeletal imaging in particular benefits from real-time observation. Researchers at the NYU Grossman School of Medicine [34] developed a RT-MRI glove for imaging movement of the hand. The glove uses high impedance coils to prevent the generation of eddy currents from rapidly changing magnetic fields and bSSFP for rapid imaging times.
