Time period Development summary
1950s In the decade comes the development of image intensifier and x-ray television.[1]
1960s Ultrasound gains popularity.[1]
1970s The 1970s are known as the "golden decade" of radiology, when the CT scanner opens up new opportunities and discoveries which would be further developed in the following decades.[2] Magnetic resonance imaging develops.[1]

1998 Ronald Nutt and David Townsend present the first combined PET-CT prototype scanner. It combines positron emission tomography and computerized tomography in such a way as to make it easier for physicians to locate tumors and other structures on the images. The combination also makes it much easier and less expensive for physicians and hospitals to have access to both forms of technology.[9][5] United States
2000 The PET-CT scanner, attributed to David Townsend and Ronald Nutt, is named by TIME Magazine as the medical invention of the year.[5]

2003 Award Peter Mansfield shares with Paul Lauterbur the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, , for discoveries concerning Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)
2004 Field development The Siemens 64-slice spiral CT is introduced.[36]
2006 PET-only scanners are no longer obtainable as major medical centers and clinics opt for PET/CT to replace their PET-only scanners and newly-established diagnostic imaging centers go directly to PET-CT.[6]
2008 Field development As of date, over 2500 PET-CT scanners are operational worldwide.[6]
2012 The International Day of Radiology (IDoR) is introduced. It is celebrated on November 8 each year.[7]
