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.
