Traditional Radiology is a diagnostic imaging method that uses X-rays for diagnostic purposes useful for the study:
of the bone region: skeletal and dental;
of the thoracic area: lung and heart volume;
the gastrointestinal tract: esophagus, stomach and colon (possibly after proper preparation and use of the Contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance)
abdominal and urinary tract: no contrast enhanced for example for calcified calcium detection.
It is a safe and reliable method that, with the modern digital equipment provided at the service, exhibits a reduced dose of radiation, however it should always be used with prescription.
