The X-Ray Diagnosis Department has two radiology rooms. They use the following radiological equipment:

- Radiodiagnostic system "Indiakom-2" XDC 50 with information digital processing for three working places (Kharkiv, Ukraine, 2002).
- Mobile radiology devices "Arman".
To examine a patient we use two technologies: ordinary and digital. Ordinary technology allows getting quality X-ray images on a film. Digital technology allows getting high quality clear image on a computer screen, processing it for better visualization of details, keeping in electronic archive. If necessary, the needed X-ray image can be printed out.
