Wilhelm Roentgen's discovery of the X-ray in 1895 opened a new window into the human body. Since its early days of rudimentary picture taking, the field of Radiology had become a complex and multi-faceted science.

The past two decades have seen explosive growth in radiology, likely far beyond what even Roentgen could have dreamed. Radiologists play an ever increasing role in diagnosis and management of patients and the complex array of disease processes.

Diagnostic X-ray, CT scanning (CAT Scan), Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), and Nuclear medicine (including PET Scanning) are just some of the tools available to physicians today. Diseases are diagnosed earlier than ever before, allowing for earlier treatment and the greatest opportunity for cure.
