While we’ve all probably have had an X-ray done at some point in our lives, very few of us would know how medical technologies that let us peek inside our bodies and find out what’s wrong with us actually work. What exactly happens when that X-ray is being taken? How do CT scans work? And how can MRIs produce detailed images of almost every organ, bone, muscle and blood vessel inside our bodies? This episode of Tech with TG tries to answer all these questions and more. We also discuss the different types of CT scans and how a combination of X-rays and advanced computer algorithms power the technology. We also look at the magical science behind MRIs and explain the loud banging and knocking sounds you hear during an MRI scan.
