My purpose in creating this blog is to help those who find themselves in a Radiology Department in an emergency and/or trauma situation feel informed and less fearful of what may happen. Before the fall of 2000, the Radiology Department was just another hallway in the hospital to me. I had never had an x-ray and so really had no knowledge of what took place there. I just figured it was somewhere people went after breaking bones so the doctors could know how to fix it.

There are X-ray, Computed Tomography (CT, or CAT scan), Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), Ultrasound, and Mammography, just to name a few.
