A blood test involves taking a sample of blood for laboratory testing. Blood tests are very common and can be used to:

• Assess your general health
• Confirm bacterial or viral infections
• Check how well organs like the liver and kidneys are functioning

Typically, a phlebotomist takes a blood sample from a vein in your arm, usually from the inside of the elbow or wrist. Children now need to go to the children's hospital for their blood tests and a blood request form will be given to you.

An X-ray is a common diagnostic test used to examine the inside of the body. It's very effective for detecting bone problems, like fractures, and can also identify issues with soft tissues, such as pneumonia or breast cancer.

During an X-ray, you'll be asked to lie on a table or stand against a surface so the area being examined is between the X-ray tube and the photographic plate.

A radiographer, a healthcare professional specializing in imaging technology, usually performs the X-ray.
