A digital chest X-ray is a quick, non-invasive imaging test that visualizes the lungs, heart, ribs, and surrounding structures. It’s commonly used to diagnose conditions like infections, pneumonia, heart enlargement, or lung diseases. The procedure takes about 10-15 minutes, involves low radiation, and requires patients to stand or sit while holding their breath briefly for clear images. Digital X-rays provide high-quality, detailed images for accurate diagnosis by radiologists. Results are typically available soon after, guiding treatment plans. Patients should inform technicians of pregnancy or health conditions beforehand. It’s a safe, effective tool for assessing chest-related issues.
