Description

New techniques and protocols of action in the diagnosis and therapeutic processes of patients, make it essential to always be aware of the most up-to-date information on radiology”

##IMAGE##

Radiology has been increasing in importance in the healthcare system. The support of medical radiology has become essential in the routine medical pratise in other specialisms. Technology today facilitates the performance of imaging tests that not long ago required surgical interventions, and the associated risks, in order to gain access to the evidence that allows you to make the appropriate diagnostic judgment in each case. 

An early and precise diagnosis increases survival rates and lowers the morbidity of The patients. Therefore, a radiologist is a fundamental part of providing quality medical care, integrating the technological advances in radio-diagnosis into the medical practice of the rest of the specialisms.

Similarly, percutaneous treatments have also evolved rapidly in recent years, due to the constant development of new materials and equipment. For this reason, the specialist must undergo continuous learning in order to be kept up to date and to offer the best care in diagnostic and therapeutic procedures that medicine allows at any given time.
