How Does Ultrasound Compare to Other Imaging Modalities in Cancer Care?
Each imaging modality has its strengths and weaknesses. For instance, MRI provides highly detailed images of soft tissues but is more expensive and time-consuming. CT scans offer detailed cross-sectional images but involve ionizing radiation. Ultrasound, on the other hand, is cost-effective, widely available, and involves no radiation, making it a valuable tool, especially for initial assessments and interventions.
