X-RAY Imaging

X-RAY Imaging ( 42 Questions)

What is the main advantage of X-ray imaging in medical practice?



Correct Answer: C

One of the main advantages of X-ray imaging is its cost-effectiveness and widespread availability in most healthcare settings. X-ray machines are relatively affordable and easy to operate, making them a common diagnostic tool.

a. X-ray imaging provides detailed images of bones and some soft tissues, but it is not as effective as other imaging modalities, such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), for detailed visualization of soft organs and tissues.

b. X-ray imaging uses ionizing radiation, which can pose some risk to patients. While the amount of radiation is generally considered safe, it is not entirely non-ionizing.

d. X-ray imaging requires some preparation, such as removing metal objects from the body, and may involve positioning the patient appropriately for optimal image capture.
