...brings to mind the larger question(s) that re-occur on this forum..Just what does an X-Ray, Pet Scan, CT, MRI, Bone Scan, Ultra Sound, etc.
see/do?
If there is a tech or other such expert lurking out there, who might be able to provide a reference or definitions of all the different scans and what they can and can't do...? this would be invaluable to a lot of folks.
A detailed explanation would be a great resource(?)
