X-rays seem to cost a great deal, particularly if it is a simple chest x-ray taking a few minutes of time. The sophisticated x-ray equipment and the lead-lined room required for x-rays are high cost .investments. But, the answer to what makes x- rays expensive is people. Someone has to schedule the appointment and fill out medical information forms and requisitions for an x-ray. In the hospital, personnel must bring the patient from his room to the x-ray department. A technologist must "take the picture." Then, the board-certified radiologist must interpret the x-ray examination and dictate the findings to a medical secretary. That person, in turn, must see that copies of the findings are sent to the personal physician and the medical records department. In medical records a file is set up so the information is available for retrieval when needed. If the patient °is hospitalized, a ward clerk in the hospital must enter the findings on a patient chart.

Someone must find the particular x- ray for the physician. X-rays are frequently delivered to a physician's office for viewing. Cleaning the department, checking and repairing x- ray equipment and ordering film and supplies are other necessary tasks requiring people. Because x-rays are ex­ pensive and important to everyone's health records, the Food and Drug ad­ ministration recommends that individuals keep an x- ray record. This avoids duplication of recent x-rays and unnecessary exposure to radiation. The FDA will send free, wallet-sized record cards for recording x-rays.
