Getting an x-ray is often a diagnostic procedure and may not make an event OSHA recordable. If the X-ray does not detect an injury requiring medical treatment beyond first aid, the event is not recordable. If it does detect such a condition, it is the subsequent treatment beyond first aid that makes the event recordable, not the x-ray.
The only time getting an X-ray could be OSHA recordable would be if the process were used for treatment of an injury or condition.
No.
No. It is OSHA recordable if the x-rays tell the doctors that you need treatment beyond first aid. Always presuming that the injury was work related and within the scope of your assignment, etc. etc.
If the x-ray is given to see if you have, for example, a broken bone, and it turns out that you do not have a broken bone, then that is not recordable. If you do have a broken bone, the event is recordable, not because you got the x-ray, but because treating the broken bone is more than first aid.
If the x-ray is treatment for an illness that is workrelated, that is more than first aide and the illness is recordable.
If the x-ray exposure itself is the workrelated event, for example you were unexpectedly exposed to radiation during the checking of a weld, then the event may be recordable, depending on whether the incident meet the other criteria of recordability.
The above all depends on the illness/injury meeting requirements for being work related, etc.
An MRI is usually a diagnostic procedure and therefore not OSHA recordable. However it would depend on why the MRI is gotten. Consult someone fmiliar with both the OSHA recording requirements and the specifics leading to the MRI.
No test is OSHA recordable, but the results may tell you that there is an OSHA recordable illness.
Yes, it is an OSHA recordable.
If it is a prescription (per OSHA regs) then yes...it is recordable.
You are legally required to record and OSHA recordable case.
Chiropractic adjustment is OSHA Recordable if it used as the result of a workplace accident or injury.

DOT (US Department of Transportation) standards have nothing to do with whether an incident is recordable under OSHA regulations.
A cist is part of an OSHA recordable only if it resulted from workplace activity as part of your assigned job, and if it is considered to be a illness.
If an injury requires medical care (beyond first aid) it is an OSHA recordable. And I think you mean cauterized.
An OSHA Recordable incident is one that is work related and that involves medical treatment beyond the application of first aid. So some incidents requiring medical treatment are OSHA recordable and some are not.
Application of any medical procedure beyond first aid makes an injury OSHA recordable. So, if anesthesia was given by medical personnel in treating a workplace injury that otherwise qualifies for recordability, then yes, it is OSHA recordable.
Calling in sick, all by itself, does not create an OSHA recordable event. If you are sick because of something in your work place or your work assignment, that may be an OSHA recordable event, but further assessment is needed by someone who understands the OSHA reporting requirements and the specifics of the event.
