title: [Medical radiology--today and tomorrow].
abstract: Medical radiology comprises diagnostic radiology, nuclear medicine and radio-oncology. Digital radiography, sonography, computed tomography, magnetic resonance and percutaneous techniques mark the present development of radiodiagnosis. Current advances in nuclear medicine are emission computed tomographic techniques and biochemical radiopharmaceuticals. Computerized planning, combination therapy and particular types of ionizing radiation are the main ongoing developments in radiation oncology. Teaching and research have a decisive bearing on the future of medical radiology.
