MRI: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a type of scan that uses strong magnetic fields and radio waves to produce detailed images of the inside of the body. It may be used to help diagnose or monitor treatment for a variety of conditions within the chest, abdomen and pelvis.

X-ray: X-rays make up X-radiation, a form of high-energy electromagnetic radiation. The most familiar use of x-rays is checking for broken bones, but x-rays are also used in other ways. For example, chest x-rays can spot pneumonia. Mammograms use x-rays to look for breast cancer.

CT scan: A computerized tomography scan (CT or CAT scan) uses computers and rotating X-ray machines to create cross-sectional images of the body. They can show the soft tissues, blood vessels, and bones in various parts of the body.

Ultrasound: Ultrasound is a type of imaging. It uses high-frequency sound waves to look at organs and structures inside the body. Health care professionals use it to view the heart, blood vessels, kidneys, liver, and other organs.
