What is Digital X-Ray of Dorsal Spine both Lateral view?

A Digital X-Ray of the Dorsal Spine in Both Lateral Views involves taking two side-profile images of the upper and mid-back region. This dual lateral imaging provides a more detailed and comprehensive view of the thoracic spine, helping to assess spinal alignment, detect fractures, and evaluate conditions such as scoliosis, kyphosis, or degenerative disc disease.

It also aids in examining the health of the intervertebral discs and the surrounding structures. The procedure is quick, requires minimal preparation, and uses low radiation exposure due to digital X-ray technology, making it a safe and effective diagnostic tool for thoracic spine evaluation.

What to expect & how to prepare

An X-ray takes a picture of bones or chest structures in a few seconds. A radiographer positions you, asks you to hold still and briefly hold your breath for chest views. Nothing is injected.

• Eat and drink normally: a plain X-ray needs no diet restriction before your appointment.
• Metal: remove jewellery, coins, belts and clothing with zips or hooks over the area, or change into a gown as advised.
• Positioning: you may be asked to stand, sit or lie in a specific position — for weight-bearing views you will stand on the affected limb.
• Bring earlier films: previous X-rays of the same area help with comparison.

A plain X-ray uses a small dose of ionising radiation. Tell the radiographer before the exposure if you are pregnant or think you might be.

Taken by a radiographer and reported by a radiologist; bring the doctor's advice that requested it.
