Does chiropractic treatment require x-rays?

0

Guidelines have been developed by the chiropractic profession with regard to the use of x-rays as a diagnostic tool. X-rays provide vital information to help determine a diagnosis but they are not required in every case.

X-rays can play an important role in diagnosis and are taken when a need has been determined after taking a patient case history and conducting a physical examination. Chiropractors receive 360 hours of education in radiology covering a full range of topics from protection to X-ray interpretation and diagnosis. Governments in every province have recognized the training and competence of chiropractors to take and interpret X-rays and have granted them this right.
