What Is an X-ray?
X-rays, also known as radiography, are imaging techniques that utilize ionizing radiation to create a 2-D static picture of your body’s interior. X-rays play a vital role in diagnosing illnesses, detecting bone or organ damage, and spotting irregularities. The final image produced by an X-ray is grayscale, showing bones in white or light gray and soft tissue and air in much darker shades. Frequently used in diagnosing injuries and diseases, X-rays include various types of radiography, such as fluoroscopy, mammography, and computed tomography. At Village Emergency Centers, we offer fast X-ray Houston services, performed by an X-ray expert team that ensures accurate and timely results. Whether you need an X-ray in Houston for yourself or child X-rays for your little one, we provide safe, reliable imaging to help inspect lungs, bones, or any other area for foreign bodies, injuries, or diseases.

How X-Rays Are Used in Emergency Rooms
When you come to Village Emergency Centers for urgent care, our physicians will assess your symptoms and determine if an X-ray is needed. If so, we’ll take immediate action:
Fractures and Dislocations
X-rays can show the exact location and severity of a fracture or dislocation, helping our team determine if a cast, splint, or other intervention is needed.
Chest X-Rays
If you’re experiencing symptoms like chest pain or trouble breathing, a chest X-ray can reveal infections like pneumonia or other conditions affecting the lungs.
Head and Neck Injuries
After a fall or accident, X-rays may be used to check for spinal injuries or skull fractures, ensuring that no critical injury is overlooked.
Symptoms That May Require an X-Ray
At Village Emergency Centers, we recommend that you seek urgent care or an ER visit for an X-ray if you experience any of the following symptoms:
If you experience any of these symptoms, don’t wait. Our walk-in services allow you to receive an X-ray and immediate diagnosis without the need for an appointment.
Expectations for an X-ray Exam
If you are uncertain about what to expect from an X-ray exam, our experienced imaging center personnel can answer your questions about preparations. We’ll help you understand what to expect during the exam and when to anticipate your results. The nature and body part of your X-ray exam will dictate whether you need to undress and wear a hospital gown before the procedure. You might not need this step if an extremity is being scanned. We value your time and aim to make each exam quick and thorough. A typical X-ray exam takes about five to ten minutes. Once the X-ray is evaluated, we can determine if there are any medical issues, including fractures or foreign objects.

Amy Trim
League City
“This emergency room is absolute AMAZING. Both my husband & I have been treated here & have had phenomenal experiences. They always treat you with love & respect. They run all of the tests that are needed, but they don’t add a bunch of unnecessary test. We all know that doctors are human, but sometimes I think some doctors forget that but not at Clear Creek Emergency Room. Dr. Luna, Dr. Cruz, and Rommel, RN are amazing!”

“I was pleased to know there’s a place to get urgent care when needed. I was taken care off promptly and efficiently. Dr. Luna treated me with respect and was very informative about my health condition. I actually was in and out of there in 3 hours. Everything was explained to me and I am happy to know there’s a place like this Jersey Village ER. Hopefully, I will not need to return but if I need to I know I will get great care. Thank you Dr Luna and staff.”
