Unlike MRIs, an X-Ray only requires a few minutes before the results are examined by a radiologist and sent to your primary care doctor. Computed Tomography (CT) Computed Tomography , commonly known as CT scans, is one of the best options for diagnostic imaging, whether it’s identifying minor injuries or serious medical conditions.
