What should I expect during my X-ray appointment?
During X-ray Keller, you will be guided to create the best position to place the part of your body to be checked in front of the X-ray machine and digital recording plate. This can mean simply remaining motionless and even at times keeping your breath stable. In other instances, they will need you to pose in a certain manner. The whole process is fast, one that takes just a few minutes, and doesn’t cause any kind of pain.
How can I get my X-ray findings, and how long does it take?
Findings of your X-ray should be available in a short period, 48 hours. The result of the radiological procedure will be transmitted directly to the referring physician who had ordered the procedure for you through the radiologist’s report and the images produced. Besides presenting you with the test results, they will also assist you in interpreting the information and offering context on how that fits into your overall treatment plan.
