Diagnostic X-rays
X-rays are a tool, not a routine. When clinically indicated, imaging clarifies structure and helps guide care.
Ordered based on history and exam
Used to clarify findings, not as a default
Referral out for advanced imaging when needed
When we order imaging
After significant trauma, when neurological findings suggest structural involvement, when red-flag symptoms are present, or when initial care has not progressed as expected.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will I need X-rays on my first visit?
Only when clinically indicated. Imaging is not automatic — it is ordered based on your history and exam findings.
Are X-rays safe?
Diagnostic X-rays use low-dose radiation. When indicated, the information they provide typically outweighs the exposure.
