General X-Rays
Simple X-rays are the basic imaging method for diagnosing a disease. Plain film X-rays of the chest, sinuses, bones and spine are used as the primary method of diagnosing infections, trauma and diseases of bones due to wear and tear. Your X-ray will normally be taken by a radiographer. These are highly trained technicians.

Bone densitometry
Bone densitometry, also called dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry, DEXA or DXA, uses a very small dose of ionizing radiation to produce pictures of the inside of the body (usually the lower (or lumbar) spine and hips) to measure bone loss.
