A walk-in clinic typically deals with minor injuries or illnesses that your physician can usually diagnose through symptoms, medical history, and a physical examination. In cases where a diagnosis is not clear X-rays and lab tests can be ordered at Q Day Walk-In Clinic. Your physician may order a general diagnostic exam to diagnose conditions of the chest, bones, sinuses, skull, or spine. It is still the most commonly used form of radiology since diagnostic x-rays were the first procedure developed in the field. It is often possible to detect diseases that are in the early stages through X-rays, improving the chances of recovery. X-rays are most commonly used to detect fractures, joint diseases, and lung diseases. In contrast to most forms of radiation, x-rays can pass through body tissue, providing images of internal structures. Imaging plates are exposed to electromagnetic radiation during the procedure. In the developed image, dense structures, like bone, appear white because they absorb the most radiation. A lighter shade of gray or black appears on structures that are less dense. The small amount of radiation you are exposed to during an x-ray is not a cause for concern. It is, however, important to inform your physician or technologist if you are pregnant or suspect that you may be before the test is performed, as special precautions may need to be taken.
