Computerized Radiography is one of the fastest growing
modalities in the imaging industry! It combines a Diagnostic Radiology
(X-RAY) machine with a powerful computer to produce digital x-ray images
instead of analog images. Your digital x-ray images no longer require x-ray
film but may be viewed or transmitted electronically to any monitor or
computer with high speed connectivity.
Why is this test done?
First, your physician orders a routine x-ray
of any kind. Sheridan Radiology then performs the routine x-ray after which we
digitize the images.
How do I prepare for this test?
No preparation is necessary for
routine x-ray procedures. Our talented and experienced customer service
staff will
provide you with an appointment time; however, no appointment is
necessary for these procedures.
What can I expect during the
procedure?
Nothing different from any routine x-ray
procedure you have ever had.
How long will it take to complete the
test?
Approximately 5-15 minutes.
What happens after the test?
Your doctor will
receive a written report by a local Board Certified Radiologist the same day
the procedure is performed.
