What is the basic principle behind X-ray?
The X-Ray taken out provides black and white images of organs. Softer tissues like muscles and fat allow X-ray to pass through them, thus appearing gray. Dense body parts such as bones block the passage of X-ray beams thus appearing white. Air-filled spaces such as lungs appear to be black.
Does an X-Ray Pelvis test require fasting?
When you go for the X-Ray pelvis, fasting is not required. If the doctor uses a contrasting medium during the test, avoid eating or taking medications for a few hours after the test.

It is advised to remove any jewelry or belt or any metallic item near the waist or around the abdomen/pelvis.
