What is a Digital X-Ray?

Radiography, known to most people as X-ray, is the oldest and most frequently used form of medical imaging. X-rays allow physicians to perform a quick evaluation, often detecting diseases in the early stages, where the chance for recovery is improved. X-rays can also rule out the presence of disease, reduce the need for invasive surgery, and provide a guide for surgeons when surgery is unavoidable.

Moving from traditional X-rays to digital radiography has been shown to make the entire process simpler, faster, and more cost-effective than ever before. In fact, when compared to traditional radiography, digital X-rays offer numerous exclusive benefits that can lead to better patient care.
