X-ray, also known as x-radiation, is a type of medical imaging that produces images of the structures inside your body by exposing a part of the body to a small dose of ionizing radiation. An x-ray (radiograph) is a non-invasive medical test that helps physicians diagnose and treat various medical conditions. Dense materials, such as bone and metal, will appear as white on X-rays while soft materials such as fat and muscle will show up as darker images on the film.
At SRS Diagnostics, special care is taken while performing x-ray examinations to use the lowest radiation dose possible while producing the best images for evaluation.
