Yes. X-Rays only have minimal radiation. If the report in inconclusive, it is advised to go through the test again.

Health Tips
Usually it is required to keep total radiation exposure in one year below a certain amount. This is approximately 1.66 mSv per year or 50 mSv over 30 years. Just for reference, you could get 80 Chest X-Rays done in a single year and still be within permissible limits, but even a single CT Scan of Head could expose enough radiation to exceed permissible limits of 1 year. Always discuss with your doctor.
