A Brief Note on Medical Imaging

Eyal Bercovich

Medical imaging is now an important part of the entire health-care process, from prevention and screening through early detection, treatment selection, and follow-up. In all subspecialties, patient triage in acute care and chronic disease, imaging-guided therapies, and treatment planning optimization are now common clinical practice. This paper presents a brief overview of notable milestones in medical imaging from its creation to the present, as well as some thoughts on the field's future directions.
