What Is an X-ray—and When It’s Needed

An X-ray is a fast, non-invasive imaging test used to examine bones, organs, and soft tissue. It uses low-dose radiation to create internal images of the body.

​

Doctors may recommend an X-ray to:

​

• Check for bone fractures or dislocations

• Assess persistent cough or chest pain

• Monitor joint or spine conditions

• Evaluate injuries after trauma

• Look for infection, swelling, or foreign bodies

​

All imaging is performed by licensed radiologic technologists following safety protocols.​

​
