X-RAY Left Knee (AP +LAT)

600.00

An X-Ray Left Knee (AP + LAT) is a diagnostic imaging test that captures two essential views of the left knee joint:

• AP (Anteroposterior) View: Taken from front to back to assess the knee’s overall alignment, joint space, and bone structure.
• Lateral View: Taken from the side, offering a clearer view of the patella (kneecap), femur, tibia, and joint fluid.

These views together help provide a comprehensive evaluation of the left knee’s bones, cartilage, and joint spaces.
