What are Digital X-rays?

Digital X-rays can be considered one of the greatest innovations in modern medicine. They allow doctors to see the inside of a patient’s body without performing exploratory surgery.

Digital X-rays present numerous advantages for patients, many of which contribute to a faster diagnosis, less exposure to radiation, and, above all else, a more successful treatment. X-rays are taken on patients to give us an inside look at what is happening with the bone structure of the upper cervical region, spine, and surrounding skeletal structure.

Dr. Neal has spent years perfecting his skills, taking and analyzing X-rays. We recognize that not everyone wants an X-ray, so our doctors will always take that into consideration.

Digital X-rays help diagnose and evaluate the spine and extremities.

UNCOVERING HIDDEN ISSUES

Digital X-rays allow for a far greater degree of vision. Your chiropractor can use this to zoom in, rotate images, and take advantage of the higher-resolution digital X-rays provided to diagnose any conditions more accurately.

While this is important for treating major issues, it is even more important for preventing potential issues. This can mean the difference between simply reducing disc swelling and treating a lifelong condition that could impair mobility.

QUICKER DIAGNOSIS

This results in a faster diagnosis, allowing an accurate treatment plan to be developed while you spend less time sitting and waiting.​

LESS EXPOSURE TO RADIATION

Digital X-rays use even less radiation than traditional X-rays. Some estimates state they use around 80 percent less radiation than traditional X-rays.

This results in less radiation exposure, which always benefits our patients. This minimizes your risk of developing diseases such as cancer if you routinely have multiple X-rays taken while visiting your chiropractor.
