Advance Imaging Techniques For the Foot and Ankle

DIGITAL X-RAYS

Digital X-Rays have several benefits when compared to traditional X-Ray systems.  Less radiation is used with digital X-Rays versus regular film and less repeat studies are required due to the fast computerized processing and auto-correction of exposure imperfections. Testing to viewing time is drastically reduced because there is no need to wait for the X-Ray film to be developed and processed.  Instead, with computerized digital technology, new X-rays able to be viewed within minutes on a laptop or computer monitor screen.  These X-ray images can then be magnified, darkened, lightened, or adjusted on a monitor to allow patients and doctors to better view and identify discrete elements of foot and ankle pathology. Images can easily be securely transmitted to collaborating physicians or a digital copy can be given to the patient.
