Procedures / Treatments
An X-ray is a high frequency, high energy wave form. It cannot be seen with the naked eye, but can be picked up on X-ray imaging. Although you may think of an X-ray as a picture of bones, a trained observer can also see air spaces, like the lungs (which look black) and fluid (which looks white, but not as white as bones). What to expect? You will have to remove all metal clothing/ jewellery from region of interest and may need to change into a gown. You will be asked to remain still in a specific position and hold your breath on command. There are staff present, and they will give you clear and concise instructions. The examination time will vary depending on the type of procedure required, but as a rule it will take around 10-15 minutes.
