Radiology, the youngest of the major medical sciences, has
undergone an extraordinary technical evolution since the discovery
of X-rays. It began with the development of the different types of
tomography and the adoption of many contrast agents, then proceeded
rapidly to serioscopy, subtraction of images, direct enlargement,
echography, thermography, and xerography. Today, even before all
these innovations have come into common use, another branch of
radiologic technology has evolved: computerized (axial) tomography.
More than just an innovation, its true dimensions are unfore
seeable. Radiology has become in less than a century an
indispensable adjunct to the practice of medicine. The development
of radiology as a speciality followed its technical advances, which
varied greatly from country to country. This rapid development led
quickly to subspecialization, even the very early development of
radiotherapy and radiodiagnostics as separate entities. However,
the entry of radiology into the university has preserved it a
single branch of medicine, avoiding the frequent tendency toward
auto nomy of the branches of a speciality. Today the fourth
generation of radiologists is faced with another deci sion: whether
to become technologists subjugated to their machinery, to become
sub specialists with a single skill, or to remain doctors. The vast
majority of this fourth generation has rejected becoming an
accessory to a master technique and rather has specialized
according to the hippocratic concept of medicine."
