How long does a private X-ray take?
Most private X-rays take 10–15 minutes from start to finish, depending on the body area being scanned.
X-rays are one of the quickest and most accessible imaging tests. When you arrive, you’ll check in, remove any jewellery or metal objects, and position yourself as directed by the radiographer.
The X-ray itself usually takes a few seconds, and the entire appointment is typically complete within 10–15 minutes. For more complex areas, such as the spine or chest, the process may take slightly longer.
You can go home or return to work immediately after your scan. Results are reviewed by a consultant radiologist and uploaded securely to your GetScanned account within 24–48 hours.
