ASSESSMENT:
Digital X-Ray
Digital x-ray utilises digital x-ray sensors, rather than traditional photographic film. This means we can review your x-rays immediately and save them directly to your digital medical record. Less radiation is used in digital x-ray, when compared to conventional x-ray techniques.
Taking images of your body using x-rays in painless and non-invasive. You do not need to fast or undergo any preparation before taking an x-ray. Although you must let us know if you are pregnant, or think there is a chance than you may be pregnant.
As Chiropractors we utilise x-ray technology to assist in diagnosis confirmation, determining appropriateness of care and identifying contraindications or factors that would modify our approach to care. We do not use x-ray if we feel it unnecessary to your diagnosis and management.
