Instruments used specially in<unk>  are as follows: Instrument Uses Ultrasonography machine uses ultrasound to produce images from within the body; video link X-ray uses X-rays to produce images of structures within the body; video link Contrast media for X-rays to provide a high contrast image of the details of the viscera under study; e.g. salts of heavy metals, gas like air, radio-opaque dyes, organic iodides, etc. Echocardiography machine sonography of the heart is done here to know its function and state Computer axial tomography scan (CT Scan)/(CAT Scan) to visualize the interior of the body in slices (traditionally showing horizontal slices); video link Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) alias Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) high strength (0.15 to 1.5 teslas) are used to excite protons that produce the record results (like CT scan). It can show particular tissues more clearly than CT.; video link Linear accelerator used in radiotherapy for cancer Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) video link Positron emission tomography (PET Scan) video link Radio-isotope scan or nuclear scintigraphy These radioactive compounds are administered so that specific tissues take them up. The amount and anatomical detail of the uptake produces the scan result. SPECT scan video link Interventional<unk>  minimally invasive surgeries under<unk> cal imaging, e.g. angioplasty, TIPS. Brachytherapy apparatus video link Lead shielding visual and physical protection from x-ray
