Digital X-ray

Digital X-ray is a commonly used imaging technique that involves exposing a specific area of the body to a small amount of ionizing radiation in order to obtain detailed images. 

The examination is performed based on a medical referral and requires a valid identity document.

Below, you can find useful information about the indications, contraindications, and preparation for digital X-ray imaging.

Advantages of Digital X-ray

The main advantage of digital X-ray lies in the reduction of radiation exposure by up to 90% compared to traditional X-ray. This method is also considered safe, as it is performed by trained specialists who ensure minimal exposure to radiation.

Indications for Digital X-ray

  • Pulmonary conditions – detection of tuberculosis, pneumonia, tumors, and other lung diseases;
  • Bone fractures and abnormalities – assessment of bone integrity, including the spine, both before and after treatment.

Contraindications:

  • Pregnancy.

Preparation for the Examination

Generally, digital X-ray does not require special preparation. However, cooperation with the radiology technician is essential for obtaining clear images.

During the examination, the patient must:

  • confirm that they are not pregnant (for women);
  • sign the informed consent form;
  • remove clothing and metallic objects from the examined area (hairpins, earrings, keys, glasses, jewelry, watches, clothing with metal fasteners, etc.);
  • use protective equipment for non-examined regions;
  • remain still for a few seconds during exposure;
  • follow the technician’s verbal instructions regarding breathing (inhale/exhale).
