Aortography, otherwise known as angiography, is an invasive examination of the aorta, or main artery, involving the introduction of contrast into the lumen of the aorta in order to take X-rays. It is used in the diagnosis of aortic dissection.

Arthrography is an imaging test performed using magnetic resonance imaging. It involves injecting contrast into the examined joint and performing an MRI scan. The test can be performed on any joint to which contrast can be administered, such as the knee, hip, shoulder, elbow and ankle joints.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is one of the most versatile tools in medicine, allowing non-invasive examination of anatomical structures of organs. Adrenal MRI is a safe and accurate diagnostic method that can detect abnormalities in the adrenal glands. This examination can be used to determine with high probability whether a lesion is benign or malignant. This method of diagnosis is completely painless and extremely safe.

An abdominal X-ray is an examination performed when abnormalities or diseases of organs in the abdominal cavity are suspected, and is often also performed for screening purposes.

Chest X-ray is the basic and most commonly performed imaging study in the diagnosis of respiratory diseases. Its popularity is due to the fact that it is non-invasive, inexpensive, easy to perform and requires no special preparation.
