X-rays are a diagnostic imaging method that makes structures inside the body visible. With this technique, cardiologists can assess the condition of the heart, lungs and major vessels. X-rays produce images in which dense materials such as bone appear light and soft tissue appears in different shades of grey. These images help doctors diagnose and monitor heart disease.
At the DHZC, we create digital radiographs (detector technology) of patients in various positions – standing and/or lying directly on the station. Further information is available here.
