What is Digital X-Ray of Chest PA & lateral view?

A Digital X-Ray of the Chest in PA and Lateral Views provides a comprehensive assessment of the chest from two perspectives. The PA view captures the chest from the front, offering a detailed look at the lungs, heart, and surrounding structures.

This view is useful for detecting conditions like lung infections, heart enlargement, or fluid buildup. The Lateral view provides a side profile, helping to identify abnormalities not visible in the PA view, such as pleural effusions or lesions in the lungs.

This combination of views is essential for diagnosing respiratory, cardiac, and other chest-related conditions. The procedure is quick, requires minimal preparation, and uses low radiation exposure due to digital X-ray technology.

What to expect & how to prepare

• Fasting: some tests require 8–12 hours of fasting (water is usually allowed). Ask the centre when you book.
• Medication: tell the lab about any medicines or supplements you take, as some can affect results.
