The power of our digitally enhanced X-ray technology is that it takes a high-resolution 'front-on' (AP) and side-on (Lateral) view of the right wrist to help doctors diagnose fractures, dislocations, arthritis, bone abnormalities, and other conditions of the wrist joint. Our experienced radiologists provide clear fixation of images with the minimum radiation dosage and provide prompt reports, which help to make an accurate diagnosis and to plan the appropriate treatment.

About X-Ray Right Wrist AP & Lateral Views

An X-ray Right Wrist AP & Lateral Views is a study of the AP (Frontal) and Lateral (Side) X-ray of the Right wrist joint. The view of the wrist features the front of the wrist (labeled the Anteroposterior (AP) view), or the side of the wrist (labeled the Lateral view). Overall, these views depict a thorough assessment of the radius and ulna, carpal bones, space in the wrist, distal forearm, and surrounding bone points. At Molecular Diagnostics and Therapy, our high-tech digital X-ray machine, or digital radiography machines, will capture detailed images of your wrist to help us determine the nature of your injury or any musculoskeletal (bones, muscles, and joints) issues accurately.

What is an X-Ray Right Wrist AP & Lateral Views?

Right Wrist X-Ray AP and lateral is an easy, painless, and non-invasive radiology scan that can be used to investigate bones and joints of the right wrist. AP (recumbent) and lateral views were useful in assessing the straightness of bones, fractures of bones, joint dislocation, and for evaluation of degenerative or inflammatory conditions of the wrist. This test is usually recommended for people with wrist pain or swelling, an injury, a reduction in hand movement, or difficulty performing hand activities.

  • Right wrist injury following a fall or accident
  • Persistent wrist pain
  • Suspected wrist fracture
  • Swelling or tenderness around the wrist
  • Difficulty moving the wrist or hand
  • Evaluation of arthritis
  • Assessment of bone alignment
  • Follow-up after wrist surgery or fracture treatment
