A portable X-ray is a compact imaging device that allows healthcare professionals to take X-ray images at the patient's location, rather than requiring them to visit a radiology department. This technology is especially useful in emergency situations, hospitals, and nursing homes, where moving patients can be challenging. Portable X-rays work similarly to traditional X-ray machines, using radiation to create images of bones and tissues. The images can be viewed immediately, aiding in quick diagnosis and treatment decisions. This convenience enhances patient care by reducing wait times and minimizing the need for transportation.
