6. Conclusion
Current advances in medicine and new technological devices are considerably modifying the clinical examination and care relationship between doctor and patient. Image-based techniques are a powerful revealer of the body's interior, revealing what was previously inaccessible or even unknown.
New medical imaging technologies tend to provide a "substitute" for the doctor's hand and eye, an "image" that stands between doctor and patient. What's more, teleradiology makes it possible to diagnose patients remotely, in other cities or countries, creating even more distance between doctor and patient, and making the image even more powerful.
The aim of these considerations is to make the technical team or engineer aware of the fact that behind the pixels and numbers there is a patient, and in front of them there is a doctor making a diagnosis, an...
