Article number 10219583

This work is an introductory textbook designed for medical students and early-stage trainees, providing a structured overview of diagnostic imaging within clinical practice. It presents the fundamental principles behind major imaging modalities such as X-ray, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and ultrasound, while integrating essential radiologic anatomy and illustrating how normal and abnormal findings appear across different systems of the body. The content emphasizes practical interpretation skills, guiding readers through common clinical scenarios and typical pathological patterns, and aims to build a foundation for understanding how imaging supports diagnosis and patient management. With a strong visual orientation, it combines explanatory text with numerous illustrative examples to help learners develop a systematic approach to reading and understanding medical images within a broader healthcare context.
