X-Ray Both Knee AP (Standing) is a weight-bearing front-view (Anteroposterior or AP) X-ray examination of both knee joints. It is performed while you are standing to evaluate the knees under normal body weight.
This examination is commonly performed to evaluate knee pain, osteoarthritis, joint space narrowing, bone alignment, fractures, degenerative changes, deformities, postoperative conditions, and other disorders affecting one or both knee joints.
The AP (Standing) view provides a clear assessment of the weight-bearing joint spaces, overall alignment of the knees, femur, tibia, fibula, and surrounding bony structures. It is particularly useful for identifying joint space narrowing associated with arthritis.
The examination evaluates the femur, tibia, fibula, knee joint spaces, femorotibial joint, bone alignment, and surrounding bony structures of both knees.
Yes. It is one of the most commonly used imaging examinations to identify osteoarthritis, including joint space narrowing, bone spurs (osteophytes), subchondral sclerosis, and other degenerative changes.
Yes. The examination helps identify fractures involving the femur, tibia, fibula, and other bones that form the knee joint. It also assists in evaluating bone alignment after injury.
