DIG X-RAY LEFT ELBOW AP AND LAT

The X-ray Left Elbow Joint AP & Lateral View Test is an imaging procedure used to examine the bones and structures within the left elbow region. It involves capturing two different perspectives: Anterior-Posterior (AP) View: This projection shows the elbow joint in its natural anatomical position from the front to back, allowing visualization of the alignment and condition of the bones and joint structures. Lateral (LAT) View: The lateral projection provides a side view of the elbow joint. This angle enables assessment from the side, offering additional information on bone alignment, potential fractures, joint space, and any abnormalities. These X-ray views help doctors diagnose various conditions such as fractures, dislocations, arthritis, and other issues affecting the elbow joint and surrounding bones.
