Abstract

This comprehensive review explores the remarkable advancements in imaging technology within the realm of clinical radiology. Over the past few decades, the field has undergone transformative changes, reshaping diagnostic capabilities and improving patient care outcomes. The transition from traditional to digital radiography, coupled with the evolution of computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and positron emission tomography (PET), has significantly enhanced image acquisition speed, resolution, and diagnostic accuracy. Moreover, the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into radiology, along with the emergence of augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR), has revolutionized image interpretation, diagnostic processes, and intervention planning. This abstract provides a succinct overview of the key advancements discussed in the full review, highlighting their collective impact on clinical radiology and anticipating future possibilities in this dynamic field.
