- CT scan – Combines X-rays and computer processing technology to create cross-sectional images.
- MRI – uses strong magnetic fields and radio waves to generate detailed images of soft tissues and organs.
- Ultrasound – uses high frequency ultrasound sound waves to create real-time images of organs and blood flow.
