oil-based steroids and x-rays

[Dragonis]

Ok guys I need to know if a steroid injection will show on an x-ray.
And if it does (which I figure it does) how long will it take to dissipate from that area after the time of injection *edit* to make it not noticable on an x-ray *end edit*. 1cc into each bicep, steroid was omnadren 250.

Thanks in advance,

Part of my job as a medical technologist is to take xrays. If you was to go in right after you did your shot then you might see something on the xray, depending on how the xray was takin (low or high KV). But a few minutes after your shot, you will be fine. Nothing will show.
