When Should You Get an X-Ray?

Not every injury requires an X-ray, but certain symptoms may indicate a fracture or another condition that should be evaluated by a medical provider. Visit AFC Urgent Care Rosenberg if you experience any of the following:

• Pain That Doesn't Improve: Pain lasting longer than 24 to 48 hours despite rest, ice, or over-the-counter medication may require additional evaluation.
• Swelling, Bruising, or Difficulty Moving: Persistent swelling, bruising, or reduced mobility after an injury may be a sign of a fracture or more serious injury.
• A Visible Deformity or Popping Sensation: If you notice a bone appears out of place or heard a popping sound when the injury occurred, an X-ray can help determine the extent of the damage.
• Bone Health Concerns or Previous Injuries: Patients with osteoporosis or lingering pain from an older injury may benefit from imaging to identify fractures or other underlying conditions.
• Follow-Up Imaging: Your provider may recommend an X-ray to confirm findings from a physical examination or another diagnostic test before developing a treatment plan.

What are Digital X-rays?

Digital X-rays use advanced electronic imaging technology to create detailed images without traditional film. At AFC Urgent Care Rosenberg, our digital X-ray equipment provides high-resolution images within minutes, allowing providers to diagnose injuries and illnesses quickly and accurately.

Compared to traditional film X-rays, digital imaging delivers sharper image quality, reduced radiation exposure, and faster processing times. Images can also be securely stored and electronically shared whenever additional care is needed.

Benefits of Digital X-rays vs. Traditional X-rays

At our practice, we believe that digital X-rays are the way to go for many reasons. Here are just a few of the benefits of digital X-rays over traditional X-rays:

• Less Radiation Exposure: Digital X-rays use significantly less radiation than traditional X-rays, which is important for patient safety.
• Clearer and Sharper Images: Digital X-rays produce clearer and sharper images, which can lead to quicker and more accurate diagnoses.
• Quicker Turnaround: Digital X-rays can be processed and stored much faster than traditional X-rays, leading to a quicker turnaround time.
• Portability and Record Keeping: Digital X-rays can be easily stored and accessed, making them much more portable and easier to keep records of.

Less Radiation Exposure

Many patients have concerns about radiation exposure during medical imaging. At AFC Urgent Care Rosenberg, our digital X-ray equipment uses significantly less radiation than traditional film-based systems while still producing detailed diagnostic images. When appropriate, protective lead shielding may also be used to further minimize radiation exposure.

Clearer and Sharper Images

Detailed imaging is essential for making an accurate diagnosis. Digital X-rays create crisp, high-resolution images that can be enlarged without sacrificing image quality, allowing our providers to closely evaluate bones, joints, and surrounding structures before recommending treatment.

Quicker Turnaround

Digital X-rays are ready instantly, so there’s no need to wait for processing like traditional film-based X-rays. This means you can get an accurate diagnosis faster, and start treatment sooner.

Portability and Record-Keeping

Digital X-rays are securely stored electronically, making them easy to retrieve and share with specialists or other healthcare providers if follow-up care is needed. Electronic records also allow providers to compare previous images over time and monitor changes in your condition more efficiently.
