X-rays are used to take images of bones and tissues to diagnose a range of complications. An X-ray imaging study, or radiograph, involves a safe level of radiation to create these images. Healthcare providers use X-ray images to examine injuries such as broken bones and dislocated joints.
One of the most common uses of X-ray images is to help physicians diagnose a broken bone. However, they can be used for many other diseases and conditions if a physician believes the images will help to create a proper treatment plan. X-rays can be taken of many different parts of the body, such as the abdomen, bones, spine, mouth, and chest.
X-rays are safe for people of all ages, including babies, with the exception of pregnant women. Your physician might order X-ray imaging if you have the following conditions:
