Fully Digital X-ray systems at all our centres :

Instead of X-ray film, digital radiography uses a digital image capture device. This gives advantages of immediate image preview and availability; elimination of costly film processing steps; a wider dynamic range, which makes it more forgiving for over- and under-exposure; as well as the ability to apply special image processing techniques that enhance overall display quality of the image.

Test Significance: A Digital X-Ray facility provides images to be viewed on-screen within minutes. A radiologist typically views and interprets the results.

Test Preparation:

· You will be required to remove all jewellery and wear a gown provided at our centre during the x-ray examination because metal and certain clothing can obscure the images and require repeat studies.

· Carry previous X-ray images and reports if you have undertaken the same test earlier.
