    • To highlight the diagnostic utility of these technologies in critical care.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of emerging computer-based imaging techniques.
    • Description of applications for x-ray, digital subtraction angiography, ultrasound, emission imaging, and nuclear magnetic resonance imaging.

    Main Results:

    • These imaging techniques provide noninvasive visualization of anatomical and functional parameters.
    • Physical variables measured are sensitive indicators of disease conditions.

    Conclusions:

    • The described medical imaging technologies are valuable for critical care.
    • Future incorporation of these techniques into critical care procedures is highly probable due to their diagnostic sensitivity.
