300.00

An X-Ray Mastoid Right Oblique is a specialized X-ray imaging test used to visualize the mastoid bone behind the right ear, taken from an oblique (angled) view. The mastoid process is a part of the temporal bone in the skull and contains air cells that can be affected by infections or other conditions such as:

• Mastoiditis (inflammation or infection of the mastoid bone)
• Chronic ear infections
• Trauma
• Cholesteatoma (abnormal skin growth in the middle ear)

This view helps provide clearer imaging of the bony structures and air cells by reducing overlapping anatomy
