What will happen at my x-ray appointment?
Our staff will show you where to wait and the radiographer will explain the procedure for your examination and show you to a private cubicle if you need to remove your garments. You may be asked to put on a clean gown which will be provided.
The radiographer will ask you to confirm that you are happy for the x-ray to go ahead. This is a form of verbal consent and may only involve the radiographer checking you are booked for the correct x-ray. If you do not wish to have the x-ray or are undecided, please discuss it with the radiographer – they can answer any questions you may have.
