X-RAY SKULL AP & LATERAL

What is a X-RAY SKULL AP & LATERAL?

X-Ray Skull AP & Lateral is a radiographic examination that captures two images of the skull from different angles—an Anteroposterior (AP) view, which provides a front-to-back image, and a Lateral view, which provides a side-profile image. Together, these views offer a comprehensive assessment of the cranial bones, facial bones, skull base, and related structures. The examination is commonly used to evaluate skull fractures, congenital abnormalities, bone lesions, and other conditions affecting the skull, supporting accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.
