X-RAY Left Hand (LAT)

300.00

An X-Ray Left Hand (LAT View) is a diagnostic imaging test that captures a side (lateral) view of the bones and joints in the left hand. During the procedure, the hand is positioned sideways, typically with fingers extended or slightly separated, allowing a clear profile image of the phalanges (fingers), metacarpals, and wrist bones.
This view helps in identifying issues that may not be visible in the standard front-facing (AP) view
