About X-Ray Both Ankles AP & Lateral Views

These views offer a complete evaluation of the distal tibia, distal fibula, talus, ankle joint spaces, and adjacent bony parts.
Advanced digital radiography systems generate crisp image detail and accuracy that enable an appropriate diagnosis and assessment of ankle injuries and musculoskeletal conditions at Molecular Diagnostics and Therapy.
