Radiology primarily uses non-invasive imaging modalities such as X-rays, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), ultrasound, and fluoroscopy to visualize anatomical structures and detect abnormalities in the body.

On the other hand, Nuclear medicine employs radioactive substances (radiopharmaceuticals) that emit gamma rays to create images of physiological processes within the body. Common imaging techniques in nuclear medicine include positron emission tomography (PET), single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), and gamma camera imaging.
