A member asked:
Would it be unusual for the person doing the x-ray to touch your waist?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Often: The technologist will position you so that the image optimally covers the region in question. That will require you to be touched. The manner in which this is done does not commonly cause patient concern. If you believe you were touched inappropriately please tell your physician.
