A chest x ray is a painless, noninvasive test that creates pictures of the structures inside your chest, such as your heart and lungs. “Noninvasive” means that no surgery is done and no instruments are inserted into your body. This test is done to find the cause of symptoms such as shortness of breath, chest pain, chronic cough (a cough that lasts a long time), and fever.
