FAQs

What is an X-Ray Orbit AP & Lateral?

X-Ray Orbit AP & Lateral is a diagnostic imaging examination that captures two views of the eye sockets (orbits): a front (AP) view and a side (Lateral) view.

Why is this X-ray performed?

It is performed to evaluate eye or facial trauma, suspected orbital fractures, foreign bodies, infections, and other abnormalities of the eye socket region.

Why are both AP and Lateral views important?

Both views provide complementary information, helping detect fractures, foreign bodies, bone displacement, and structural abnormalities that may not be visible in a single view.

Can this X-ray detect orbital fractures?

Yes. It is commonly used to identify fractures of the orbital walls and surrounding facial bones.

Can this test help diagnose infections or swelling?

Yes. It may show indirect signs of infection, inflammation, or sinus-related involvement affecting the orbit.
