Common questions

Is fasting required for a chest X-ray?

No fasting is required. You can eat and drink normally before your appointment.

How soon will I get the X-ray report and film?

Digital images and doctor-signed radiologist reports are delivered within 2 to 4 hours on WhatsApp and in your online account.

Is the radiation safe?

Yes. Our centre uses high-frequency Digital Radiography (DR) equipment that reduces radiation exposure by up to 80% compared to conventional X-rays.

Can a chest X-ray be done during pregnancy?

If you are pregnant or suspect you might be, inform our staff immediately. X-rays are avoided during pregnancy unless critically advised by your physician with abdominal shielding.

Do I need to fast before Digital X-ray — Chest PA?

No. Digital X-ray — Chest PA does not require fasting, so you can book any slot that suits you.

How soon will I get the report?

Within 4 hours of collection. It arrives on WhatsApp as a doctor-signed PDF, and a copy stays in your account to download whenever you need it.

Can this be done at home?

No — this one needs equipment at our Jasola Vihar centre, so it is booked as a centre visit with a fixed slot.

What does Digital X-ray — Chest PA cost?

₹400. That is the full price — there are no separate reporting or handling charges, and you can pay online or on collection.

Important. This page describes what a test measures and costs. It is not medical advice, and a result needs a doctor to interpret it alongside your symptoms and history. If you have severe symptoms — chest pain, breathlessness, heavy bleeding, fainting or a very high fever — do not wait for a test. Seek emergency care or call 112 immediately.
