What is an "X-ray"?
An X-ray is an image created using a type of radiation that passes through the body to produce pictures of the internal structures. During the X-ray procedure, a small amount of radiation is directed at the area being examined, and a device on the other side captures the radiation that passes through, creating a detailed image. X-rays are commonly used to examine bones, detect fractures, and identify issues in organs or tissues. The images help doctors diagnose conditions, monitor progress, and plan treatments.
Example
The doctor ordered an X-ray to check for any fractures after the patient injured their arm.
Il medico ha ordinato una radiografia per controllare eventuali fratture dopo che il paziente si è infortunato al braccio.
