X-ray uses a very small dose of ionizing radiation to produce pictures of the body’s internal structures. These pictures are in black and white with high contrast. X-rays are the most frequently used form of medical imaging in practice. They are often used to help diagnose fractured bones, look for injury or infection, and to locate foreign objects in soft tissue. A referral letter from a doctor is necessary to perform an x-ray.

A scoliosis X-ray is an imaging test used to diagnose and evaluate scoliosis, a condition where the spine has an abnormal curve. The X-ray captures images of the spine from different angles to measure the degree of curvature. It helps doctors assess the severity of the condition and track any changes in the curvature over time.

Leg Length X-ray is an imaging test used to measure the length of the legs to check for any differences in leg length, a condition known as leg length discrepancy (LLD). A leg length discrepancy can occur due to various reasons, including developmental issues, injury, or diseases that affect bone growth. The X-ray helps healthcare professionals assess the difference in length between the two legs and determine the most appropriate treatment. 

The X-ray is typically done while the patient stands, although in some cases, other positions (like bending or sitting) might be used. It’s a non-invasive procedure, but because it involves radiation, it’s generally done when necessary to monitor the condition.
