Model answer

What a good answer should say

  • They provide clearer images for accurate diagnosis.

Explanation

Why this works

High-resolution imaging techniques allow for more detailed images, which can lead to more accurate diagnoses. However, this often comes at the cost of increased radiation exposure, which poses risks to patient safety.

Therefore, while high-resolution images are beneficial for diagnosis, the trade-off with patient safety must be carefully considered.
