What is an X-Ray Both Knees AP (Standing) & Lateral?

X-Ray Both Knees AP (Standing) & Lateral is a two-view X-ray examination of both knee joints that includes a weight-bearing Anteroposterior (AP Standing) view and a Lateral (side) view to evaluate the bones, joint spaces, and overall alignment of the knees.

Why is this examination performed?

It is commonly performed to evaluate knee pain, osteoarthritis, joint space narrowing, fractures, trauma, degenerative changes, deformities, postoperative conditions, and other disorders affecting one or both knees.

Can this X-ray detect osteoarthritis?

Yes. It is one of the most common examinations used to evaluate osteoarthritis, including joint space narrowing, bone spurs (osteophytes), and degenerative changes.
