An X-ray image is created when a small amount of radiation is passed through a body part.

as shades of grey .

Some people worry that X-rays aren't safe because radiation exposure is harmful and may lead to
cancer. The amount of radiation you're exposed to during an X-ray depends on the tissue or organ
being examined. Sensitivity to the radiation depends on your age, with children being more
sensitive than adults.
Generally, however, radiation exposure from an X-ray is low, and your physician while requesting
for the test is aware that the benefits from these tests far outweigh the risks .
Specifically, we use low radiation protocols routinely.
However, if you are pregnant or suspect that you may be pregnant, tell your doctor before
having an X-ray.
Most routine x rays require no preparation ; however a few special types of X-rays / procedures
require different preparations.
Ask your doctor or nurse to provide you with specific instructions.
Feel free to contact us for the preparation required.

In general, you undress whatever part of your body needs examination. You may be given a gown during the exam, depending on which area is being X-rayed. You may also be asked to remove jewelry, eyeglasses and any metal objects because they can show up on an X-ray.
During the X-ray
If a young child is having an X-ray, restraints or other techniques may be used to keep him or her
still. These won't harm your child and will prevent the need for a repeat procedure, which may be
necessary if the child moves during the X-ray exposure.
You may be allowed to remain with your child during the test. If you remain in the room during the
X-ray exposure, you'll likely be asked to wear a lead apron to shield you from unnecessary
exposure.
