What is an X-ray?

X-rays are an imaging test that lets your doctor see inside your body. This test uses a small amount of radiation to create pictures of your bones and joints. They can also be used to look at internal structures and organs.

X-rays can find broken bones, check for infections, and assess injuries. The procedure is quick, non-invasive, and painless. This is a common and effective tool your doctor can use to diagnose a range of medical conditions.

The Benefits of X-rays

X-rays provide clear images that help your doctor understand what’s happening inside your body. They are especially useful for diagnosing issues like fractures, infections, and joint problems.

X-rays also offer other important benefits, such as:

  • Helping your doctor determine the best treatment for your medical condition.
  • Monitoring the progression of diseases like osteoporosis to see if treatment is working.
  • Checking for foreign objects that need to be removed after an accident or injury.
  • Evaluating your treatment plan’s effectiveness so your doctor can make adjustments.
  • Monitoring the development of your teeth and jaws as part of routine dental checkups.

X-rays help your doctor make informed decisions and create the best treatment plan for you.

What to Expect During Your Appointment

We understand you might feel nervous before your appointment, especially if you’re worried about the results. But our team is here to guide you through the process.

Getting an X-ray is a quick and painless process. It usually takes 15-30 minutes to complete. But the exact time can vary depending on the complexity of your medical condition or the number of X-rays your doctor needs.

Here’s what will happen during your X-rays:

You’ll check in at the front desk when you arrive and fill out any necessary paperwork.

Our staff will explain the procedure and answer your questions. You may be asked to change into a hospital gown.

A technician will position you in front of the X-ray machine and take images of the area being examined. The machine will make a clicking sound as the image is captured, but it won’t hurt you.

After the X-ray, you can change back into your clothes and head home. Our radiologist will review the images and send a report to your doctor.

Our goal is to make sure you’re as comfortable as possible. If you have any questions about what to expect, don’t hesitate to ask our staff. We’re here to support you every step of the way.
