Geriatric Imaging aims to provide accurate and timely diagnosis and management of diseases and conditions commonly encountered in older adults.

X-ray is the primary imaging modality used to assess bone health, including osteoporosis and fractures, in geriatric patients.

Chest X-ray is the initial imaging study of choice for diagnosing pneumonia in geriatric patients due to its wide availability and cost-effectiveness.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is frequently used to evaluate brain structure and function, making it valuable in diagnosing and monitoring neurodegenerative disorders in geriatric patients.

Doppler ultrasound is the preferred imaging modality for diagnosing deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in geriatric patients due to its non-invasive nature, high sensitivity, and specificity.

Transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) is the primary imaging modality used to detect and characterize prostate cancer in older men, providing detailed visualization of the prostate gland and surrounding structures.

Computed Tomography Angiography (CTA) is the preferred imaging modality for evaluating suspected aortic aneurysm in geriatric patients, providing detailed visualization of the aorta and its branches.

Renal ultrasound is the primary imaging modality used to evaluate renal function and detect urinary tract abnormalities in geriatric patients due to its non-invasive nature and ability to provide real-time imaging.

Colonoscopy is the preferred imaging technique for diagnosing and monitoring gastrointestinal disorders in older adults, allowing direct visualization and biopsy of the colon and rectum.

Chest CT is the primary imaging modality used to evaluate suspected lung cancer in geriatric patients, providing detailed visualization of the lungs and mediastinum.

Echocardiography is the preferred imaging modality for assessing suspected heart failure in older adults, providing real-time visualization of the heart's structure and function.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is the preferred imaging modality for evaluating suspected stroke in geriatric patients, providing detailed visualization of the brain and its blood vessels.

Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is the preferred imaging technique for diagnosing and monitoring osteoporosis in older adults, providing accurate measurements of bone mineral density.

Abdominal ultrasound is the primary imaging modality used to evaluate suspected abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) in geriatric patients, providing real-time visualization of the aorta and its branches.

Doppler ultrasound is the preferred imaging modality for diagnosing deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in geriatric patients due to its non-invasive nature, high sensitivity, and specificity.
