The purpose of the study is to discuss the physical basis, the application capacity and perspectives of ultrasonographic methods, magnetic resonance imaging and positron emission tomography, with a view to determining their specificity and possibilities of combination with other methods to achieve precision in the diagnostic process. Methods. The physical basis for the realisation of the methods is presented. Possibilities for machine design and clinical application are shown. Results. Possibilities to develop methods and techniques with regard to their non-invasive nature and minimising patient risk are shown. A combination with some other diagnostic and therapeutic methods is proposed. Advantages derived from obtaining diagnostic informat...
