Abdominal radiography remains an accessible and rapid initial assessment method for suspected intestinal obstruction. The imaging examines dilated intestinal loops, fluid and gas levels, unusual gas distribution, the absence of gas below the suspected obstruction, and signs of perforation.
A patellar x-ray is a routine x-ray of the knee with an emphasis on the patella itself and the patellofemoral joint, which is the area where the patella contacts the femur.
Retrograde pyelography is an X-ray examination of the upper urinary tract in which a contrast agent is injected not into a vein, but directly into the ureter through a cystoscope and a thin catheter.
Voiding cystourethrography is an X-ray examination of the bladder and lower urinary tract, which is performed under fluoroscopy control after filling the bladder with a contrast agent through a catheter.
A chest X-ray is one of the most common examinations in clinical practice. It quickly produces images of the lungs, heart, major vessels, airways, pleura, and bony structures of the chest using a small dose of ionizing radiation.
Bronchography allows physicians to assess the condition of the bronchi, identify possible changes such as tumors, structural abnormalities or obstructions, and assist in establishing diagnoses and planning treatment.
