What is a Digital X-Ray?

An x-ray is a diagnostic test that uses electromagnetic waves to create pictures of the inside of the body. A digital x-ray uses a computer to create the x-ray image, which can be stored digitally. A digital x-ray is different from a traditional x-ray because it:

  • Is more clear and detailed
  • Uses less radiation
  • Can be stored on a computer
  • Provides images quickly

Why Get a Spine X-Ray?

A spinal x-ray can give our chiropractor in Miami Lakes important information about your spine. The imaging can help diagnose problems with your bones, joints, and discs, and can help find issues with the ligaments, muscles, and other soft tissues in your back that are tougher to assess without images.

It is not always necessary to have an x-ray. In some cases, your symptoms, a physical exam, and your medical history will be enough for our chiropractor to reach a diagnosis. We would only recommend an x-ray if we felt it was medically necessary to help with diagnosis and guide treatment options.

What to Expect When Getting a Spinal X-Ray

If it’s decided that a spinal x-ray would be beneficial, one of our team members will take you to the x-ray room in our office. You’ll be asked to remove any jewelry or other objects that might affect the imaging, then positioned with the x-ray machine. We may take multiple images from different angles, and you may be asked to hold your breath at certain points to prevent movement that could blur the image.

Taking x-rays usually only takes a few minutes, and we can review the images on our computers within minutes. We’ll show you the images and talk through exactly what we’re seeing and how it may be playing a role in your health.

Getting X-Rays of Your Spine in Miami Lakes

The spine plays a major role in your overall health. As the main highway for the nervous system, it’s important to keep your spine healthy. When you come into our office for care, depending on your health concern, we may recommend getting an x-ray of your spine to help guide us in the best direction for your care.

Don’t let health issues and discomfort get any worse. Give us a call and book your appointment to come see our chiropractic team today!
