FAQs

What is an X-Ray LS Spine Left Bending?

X-Ray LS Spine Left Bending is a specialized X-ray examination performed while you bend your upper body toward the left side to evaluate the lumbar spine (lower back) and its movement.

Why is this X-ray performed?

It is performed to assess spinal alignment, flexibility, scoliosis, spinal instability, degenerative changes, and other abnormalities affecting the lower back.

What does "Left Bending" mean?

Left Bending means the X-ray is taken while you bend your spine toward the left side, allowing doctors to evaluate how the lumbar spine moves and aligns during motion.

Which structures are examined during the test?

The examination visualizes the lumbar vertebrae (L1–L5), lumbosacral junction (L5–S1), intervertebral disc spaces, facet joints, and surrounding bony structures.

Why is a left bending view important?

It helps assess spinal flexibility, curvature, and stability, and can reveal abnormalities that may not be visible on standard standing X-rays.

Can it detect spinal instability?

Yes. The examination can help identify abnormal movement or instability of the lumbar spine during side bending.
