Safe and Convenient X-Ray Services
X-rays are a type of diagnostic imaging that can be used to examine any part of your body. At the Florida MRI Centers, we offer reliable and convenient x-ray services to patients of all ages.
X-rays were actually one of the first types of diagnostic imaging invented by humankind, and they’re still used quite often today. You’re given an extremely small, safe dose of radiation which allows us to get internal images of your body.
From cancer to bone fractures, x-rays can assist your physician with diagnosing a wide range of conditions. This procedure is painless, fairly quick, and very straightforward.
While x-ray machines of past decades used traditional film images, today’s modern equipment uses digital images which can be securely transmitted to your physician. Even better, digital x-rays are faster and safer because they emit around 80% less radiation than their traditional predecessors.
When you and your physician are trying to diagnose a condition, x-rays are often one of the first tests performed. But they’re also great for charting the effectiveness of a treatment or progression of an ongoing issue.
FAQS
How safe are x-rays?
But today’s digital x-rays use a very small amount of radiation. For example, the radiation you’ll absorb from a standard x-ray of your chest, arm, or even skull is less than you absorb annually in day-to-day life.
When can you expect results?
When you choose us for your x-ray procedure, we’re more than happy to coordinate with your physician and send them the images. This allows you to get your results as soon as possible.
