Diagnostic Radiology

General radiography includes x-rays that produce two-dimensional images. An example of a general radiograph would be a chest x-ray, or perhaps an x-ray of the spine. This x-ray is produced by a source of radiation. Radiation is not the same as magnetic resonance. Radiation used to make x-rays is always used in amounts that fit the acronym ALARA, as low as reasonably achievable.
