About X-Ray Both Hand AP & Oblique Views
X-ray Both Hand AP & Oblique is a specific imaging study that takes a combination of detailed X-ray images of the hands from the front (AP) and oblique (angled) perspective. These additional perspectives offer a great way to view the phalanges, metacarpal bones, carpal bones, wrist joints, and the other bones in and around the joint, allowing doctors to assess the alignment of bones, joint spaces, and skeletal health. Advanced digital radiography systems at Molecular Diagnostics and Therapy create clear and detailed images for a detailed examination of orthopedic conditions and hand injuries.
What is an X-Ray Both Hand AP & Oblique Views?
An XRay Both Hand AP & Oblique Views is an imaging test that takes an X-ray of both hands at two angles to look for abnormalities, but requires minimal exposure, is painless, and non-invasive. The AP view is a front-on image, while the oblique view allows for visualization of overlapping bones and joints for more subtle fractures and abnormal joints. May be performed on a person who is experiencing hand pain, deformities, swelling, trauma, or loss of motion.

X-Ray Both Hand AP & Oblique Views के लिए किसी विशेष तैयारी की आवश्यकता नहीं होती।
ऐसे आरामदायक कपड़े पहनें जिनसे दोनों हाथों और कलाई की जांच आसानी से की जा सके।
यदि आप गर्भवती हैं या गर्भावस्था की संभावना है, तो X-ray जांच से पहले रेडियोलॉजी स्टाफ को अवश्य बताएं।
दोनों हाथों और कलाई से अंगूठी, कंगन, घड़ी या अन्य धातु की वस्तुएं हटा दें, क्योंकि ये इमेज की गुणवत्ता को प्रभावित कर सकती हैं।
यदि पहले हाथ में फ्रैक्चर, सर्जरी, इम्प्लांट, प्लास्टर या अन्य ऑर्थोपेडिक उपचार हुआ है, तो इसकी जानकारी डॉक्टर या रेडियोलॉजी तकनीशियन को दें।
यदि उपलब्ध हो, तो पिछली X-ray, CT, MRI रिपोर्ट या संबंधित ऑर्थोपेडिक मेडिकल रिकॉर्ड साथ लेकर आएं ताकि आवश्यकता पड़ने पर तुलना की जा सके।
स्पष्ट AP एवं Oblique Views प्राप्त करने के लिए रेडियोलॉजी तकनीशियन के निर्देशों का पालन करें।
इमेज लेते समय हाथों और उंगलियों को स्थिर रखें ताकि स्पष्ट और उच्च गुणवत्ता वाली इमेज प्राप्त हो सके।
पंजीकरण और जांच प्रक्रिया के लिए निर्धारित समय से 10–15 मिनट पहले पहुंचें।
The patient is positioned appropriately to obtain the required Anteroposterior (AP) and Oblique views of both hands.
The radiology technician carefully positions both hands to capture detailed images of the phalanges, metacarpal bones, carpal bones, wrist joints, joint spaces, and surrounding bony structures.
A modern digital X-ray system captures high-resolution images using a controlled amount of radiation.
The patient may be asked to keep both hands and fingers completely still while each image is acquired to prevent motion blur.
Multiple images are obtained from different angles to provide a comprehensive evaluation of both hands.
The examination is quick, painless, non-invasive, and is generally completed within a few minutes.
The radiologist reviews the images to evaluate hand fractures, joint dislocations, osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis changes, bone deformities, bone lesions, infections, and post-traumatic or post-surgical changes.
After detailed image analysis, the final report is generally available within 04 hours.
