Explanation

CT scans, fluoroscopy, and radiography use X-rays to create diagnostic images. External beam radiation therapy can use high-energy X-rays to treat tumors. Radioisotope imaging and brachytherapy use radiation from radioactive materials, while MRI uses magnetic fields and radio waves; laser eye surgery uses lasers.
