Chest X-Rays are used in occupational health for respiratory surveillance, tuberculosis screening, and as part of various pre-employment and periodic physical examinations. They can detect lung abnormalities, heart size changes, and other thoracic conditions.

For workers exposed to respiratory hazards like silica, asbestos, or coal dust, chest X-rays are part of required medical surveillance programs. The International Labour Organization (ILO) classification system is used to standardize the reading of occupational chest films.
