message: Exactly what are the differences between Motion MRI vs Digital motion analysis vs cineradiography, videofluoroscopy, in regard to spinal evaluation.
Special interest in differences between Motion MRI and Digital Motion Analysis.
:videofluoroscopy is a type of cine-radiography (old term for "moving x-ray pics").  Usually used by the speech pathologist to videotape (yes, still using ol' VCR's) the patient eating.  MRI has no ionising radiation and its usefulness is dependent on who you're imaging (kids, preggers, anyone you don't want to radiate) and the speed and power of the MRI's computer.  I've not actually heard of "motion MRI" but I've used fMRI for "functional" or sometimes "fast," which is live motion turned to a digital video the radiologist can watch.  Does this help?  I dunno if there will ever be pages on these. Gaviidae 09:21, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

message: This starts by saying to go to radiography main page, but all the stuff about each different modality is redundant-- the radiography page has the same thing on each modality (worded differently and with a bit less information).  This is unnecessary overlapping.  There should be a brief summary of getting images, and then a link to the radiography page, where people can read the summaries of the diff. modalities, and click on them for more info at each mod's main page.Gaviidae 09:21, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

message: There is nothing inherently wrong with having commercial sites listed under External links; however, they have to add something to the site, such as being a reference.  Sites which are JUST commercial implementations of Radiology don't belong in the article. Bejnar 17:15, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

message: Pfft. Why can't you people just call it 'Imagiology' like we do here? In imagiology we study radiology, MRI and all the other medical imaging techniques.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.169.99.64 (talk) 10:06, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

This is a total non-sequitur and appears to be shilling. I think it needs to go. Thoughts?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Daveman 84 (talk • contribs) 00:23, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

message: Hello, the term actinoscopy redirects here but this word is not used in the article. So could add a part about this term or delete the redirection? Thanks. Pamputt (talk) 15:25, 15 August 2011 (UTC)

message: "A capture device then converts them into visible light, which then forms an image for review and diagnosis and health management. "
Is the 2nd line trying to explain the process that Roentgen discovered, however, in the descriptive of this paragraph, the above is an error, as there is no "capture device" that is converting "X-rays" to visible light in a conventional X-Ray Source and Film System.
The X-rays penetrate the body, and stimulate the halide of silver-salts on the film, or 'expose' the film. This is when the conversion happens, and the fixing of the silver halides on the film get developed in a chemical process that reverses the 'exposure' by having the areas that were exposed to the X-rays turn dark, or develop, and the leser areas that are not as much exposed by the X-rays, appear as clear parts on the film. 
It is the actual layer of film then that is projected with a light source, that a clinician examines, and then uses for further diagnosis. Some Film sizes can be large, 20 x 30 cm, or small  (3 x4 cm) depending on the purpose, Knee vs Dental examination.

message: The description of the knee MRI reads "Image from an MRI examination of the knee with a displaced patella." Although there may be mild patella alta, I don't know if I would call it "displaced" (and there is no bone edema to suggest recent lateral subluxation). Can whoever posted this image please explain what they mean?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 162.1.129.96 (talk) 14:28, 12 December 2013 (UTC)

message: The NLM classification places radiologic health under WN: Radiology (WN 600 to 665), including such topics as radiation injuries, radioactive food contamination, and radiation pollutants. If these are generally considered within the radiologist's practice, they should be included in the article. Dynzmoar (talk) 14:27, 25 December 2018 (UTC)
