X-ray study

A typical imaging test that has been used for decades is an X-ray. It uses a kind of radiation known as electromagnetic waves to generate images of the inside of the body which allows your doctor to see into your body without making an incision. This can aid in the diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment of a variety of medical conditions.
