Spinal X-Rays

In-House Spinal X-rays: Advanced Diagnostic Imaging at Our Brooklyn Practice

At Brooklyn Chiropractic Care, we believe that accurate diagnosis is the foundation of effective treatment. That’s why we’re proud to offer state-of-the-art, in-house spinal X-ray services at our Brooklyn practice. With on-site imaging technology, we can quickly pinpoint the root cause of your pain and develop a personalized care plan to get you feeling your best.

The Benefits of In-House X-Ray Services

Having diagnostic X-ray capabilities right in our office offers several key advantages for our patients:

Immediate results: No need to wait days or weeks for imaging reports. We can review your X-rays with you right away and start treatment promptly.
Convenience: Save time and hassle by getting your imaging and treatment done in one location. No extra appointments or trips across town.
Cost-effectiveness: In-house X-rays are often more affordable than hospital or standalone imaging center rates.

Continuity of care: Your chiropractor can correlate imaging findings with physical exam results for a more comprehensive understanding of your condition.

What Can Spinal X-Rays Reveal?

X-rays provide a clear picture of the bony structures in your spine, allowing us to identify issues such as:

Vertebral misalignments or subluxations
Disc narrowing or degeneration
Bone spurs or arthritis
Scoliosis or abnormal curvatures
Fractures or other injuries

By detecting these problems early on, we can intervene with targeted treatments to prevent further damage and optimize your spinal health.

Advanced Technology, Minimal Radiation

We use the latest digital X-ray technology, which offers superior image quality with significantly less radiation exposure compared to older film systems. Digital X-rays deliver 70-80% less radiation than traditional methods (Jones, 2018).

Our experienced radiographers are trained in positioning techniques that minimize the number of views needed while still capturing all essential information. We follow strict safety protocols and only order X-rays when clinically necessary to ensure your well-being.

Conditions Diagnosed with Spinal X-Rays

Some of the most common spinal problems we diagnose and treat with the help of in-house X-rays include:

Spinal stenosis
Facet joint syndrome
Degenerative disc disease
Sciatica and radiculopathy
Whiplash and other traumatic injuries

After identifying the underlying issue, Dr. Priyank Patel, our experienced Brooklyn chiropractor, will recommend a personalized treatment plan using evidence-based techniques like spinal adjustments, decompression therapy, corrective exercises, and more. X-ray imaging allows us to track your progress and ensure your care plan is providing the desired results.

Typical X-Ray Experience

If Dr. Patel determines that X-rays are needed during your initial chiropractic exam, our friendly staff will guide you through the process:

Patel will position you standing for the specific views required.
You’ll be asked to hold still for a few seconds while the X-ray is taken. The process is painless and non-invasive.
Patel will review the digital images with you immediately and explain any significant findings.
Together, you’ll agree on a customized care plan addressing your unique needs.

The entire process typically takes less than 30 minutes from start to finish. We strive to make your experience as smooth and efficient as possible.

Insurance Coverage for X-Rays

Most insurance plans, including Medicare and workers’ compensation, cover medically necessary spinal X-rays when ordered by a licensed chiropractor. We believe in transparency and will work with you to maximize your insurance coverage.

Yes, modern digital X-rays use minimal radiation and are considered very safe when performed by trained professionals. The benefits of accurate diagnosis far outweigh the small radiation risk.

The frequency of X-rays depends on your specific condition and treatment progress. We avoid unnecessary radiation exposure and only order follow-up X-rays when clinically indicated to monitor healing or guide care decisions.
