X-Ray

X-Ray Technology at Metro Group of Hospitals

X-ray imaging is one of the most widely used and essential diagnostic tools in modern medicine. At Metro Group of Hospitals, we offer advanced digital X-ray technology to provide quick, accurate, and reliable imaging for a wide range of medical conditions.

What is an X-Ray?

An X-ray is a non-invasive imaging technique that uses controlled radiation beams to create images of the internal structures of the body. These rays pass through soft tissues but are absorbed by denser materials like bones, helping produce clear images for diagnosis.

X-ray machines consist of two main components:

• Cathode (negative electrode): Emits electrons
• Anode (positive electrode): Receives electrons and converts their energy into X-rays

When high-speed electrons from the cathode strike the anode, energy is released in the form of X-ray radiation, which passes through the body to create diagnostic images.
