Image for Heart Radiography

Heart Radiography

Heart radiography, commonly known as chest X-ray, is a medical imaging technique used to visualize the heart and surrounding structures. It produces images by passing a small amount of radiation through the body. This helps doctors assess the size and shape of the heart, detect abnormalities, and identify conditions like heart failure, fluid buildup, or lung issues. While it's a quick and painless procedure, it provides essential information that aids in diagnosing and managing heart-related health problems. Heart radiography is often one of the first steps in evaluating a patient’s cardiovascular health.
