An X-ray is a painless procedure that uses a beam of radiation to create images of bones and certain organs. During the procedure, you may be asked to sit, stand, or lie down in a special room with the X-ray machine. Depending on the required image, you might need to hold your breath for a few seconds.

For safety purposes, we do not permit anyone to accompany you into the examination room during your procedure. Exceptions may be considered for patients with physical or cognitive impairments who require assistance, or in instances where an interpreter is necessary.
