Abstract:
Multimodality imaging is driven by the rising demand for highly integrated diagnostic information from in vivo imaging. We provide a comprehensive review of multimodality imaging techniques available in nuclear medicine, including magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) combined with ultrasound and MRI combined with stereotactic methods for image-guided breast biopsies and MR-guided stereotactic neurosurgery. Commercially available and investigative hardware- and software-based platforms for multimodality imaging are evaluated critically and their advantages and limitations are outlined.

Definition and Purpose
An X-ray, or radiograph, is a non-invasive method that uses ionizing radiation to take images of internal structures. It is mainly used in cardiac imaging to examine the heart, lungs, and major blood vessels, aiming to identify abnormalities in the heart's size, shape, and position, such as heart failure, congenital defects, and vascular...

Description of the Procedures
Computed Tomography (CT) scan:
Computed Tomography (CT) scans use X-ray technology to generate detailed images of bones, organs, and tissues. During the scan, the patient lies on a moving table...
