X-Ray Whole Spine Right Bending is a specialized imaging examination that captures detailed X-ray images of the entire spine while the patient bends sideways to the right. The test is commonly performed to assess spinal flexibility, alignment, and curvature, particularly in individuals with scoliosis or other spinal deformities. It helps physicians evaluate the severity and flexibility of spinal curves, monitor progression, and plan appropriate treatment strategies.
Disclaimer: Result availability is subject to the laboratory's schedule and test availability.
The examination itself is painless, although some patients may experience mild discomfort while bending if they have a spinal condition.
