X-Ray Imaging
by NuView Health Medical
The most common diagnostic imaging service for the human body is projectional radiography, or simply termed “X-Ray”. It produces a 2 dimensional image of which a chiropractor can evaluate an area of the spine (i.e. cervical, thoracic, lumbar, sacral, coccygeal). X-Ray imaging works because bones are more dense and thus show up on film as lighter areas compared to muscle tissue. The resulting photo of the skeleton is used as a diagnostic tool by NuView Health Medical.
