Abstract

Medical science has grown tremendously at a rapid rate over the recent past. This is especially true in the fields of diagnostics and therapeutics encompassing various diseases of all the systems of the human body including psycho-somatic disorders. During the last three to four decades, precision in diagnostics has enormously improved due to invention of multiple imaging modalities like Computerized Tomography (CT) scan, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scan, Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scan, Ultrasound scan-guided studies, CT-guided diagnostic procedures, Doppler studies, Arteriography, CT angiography, advanced needle biopsy procedures, histo-chemistry studies, tumor marker studies as well as in the ongoing improvements in all diagnostic and therapeutic branches.
