It is an imaging method used to visualize tissues using X-rays. It is an imaging method that involves radiation because X-ray is used. This method, which was previously evaluated with x-ray films, is now examined on computer screens thanks to digital technologies, the images of the examination can be stored and transferred to another receiver.
X-ray imaging is a method that has been used for many years. X-rays are used to make the internal parts of the body visible. In x-rays, tissue AND bones appear in black and white. The reason for this is that the densities of the tissues are different from each other. When the body is exposed to X-rays, different parts of the body allow varying amounts of X-rays to pass through the body. Soft tissues in the body (such as blood, skin, fat, and muscle) allow most X-rays to pass through, appearing dark gray digitally.
Bone or tumors that are denser than soft tissue allow very little X-rays to pass through and therefore appear white on the X-ray. When a fracture occurs in a bone, the X-ray beam passes through the broken area and appears as a black line on the white bone. With this imaging method, pathologies in areas such as the Spine, Joints, Abdomen, Lung Sinuses, Jaw, Hip, Long Bones can be detected.
