 The
technologist will bring the patient into the room. Dependent
on the area of interest, the patient may be placed on the x-ray table
or the exam may be done standing. The x-ray beam will then be
focused on the area of interest. Various x-rays may be taken at different
angles to better visualize the area.
The length of the exam is dependent on the type of study that is
ordered. Most general exams take just a few minutes. Barium Studies
and Contrast Studies may take from 30 minutes to 2 hours.
