1. Introduction

This blog records some of the physiological elements of the writer's health, such as blood test results and digital copies of X-rays. The writer is an Australian, Caucasian male, born on 22 September 1956. He was in good health at the time of initial preparation of this blog.

2. X-rays - 7 January 2026

A spinal digital x-ray scan was undertaken by Scanoptics, operating as Hilltops Radiology Pty Ltd at the Kruger Medical Centre, Harden. Nine images were sent to the patient, and a report to the attending doctor. Copies of the digital scans are presented below.

#1 Top of neck, part of skull

#2 Upper spine from the side

#3 Lower spine from the front

#4 Lower spine from the side

#5 Neck from the side

#6 Neck from the side

#7 Neck from the side

#8 Face from the front

#9 Upper spine from the rear

The x-rays reveal the levels of Scoliosis present in the spine. The following is a combination of both #3 and #9 to provide an approximate overview of the complete spine from the rear.
