Digital X-Ray of Left knee joint (B/V) AP & Lateral view Price in Bangladesh

What is Digital X-Ray of Left knee joint (B/V) AP & Lateral view?

A Digital X-ray of the left knee joint in both Anterior-Posterior (AP) and Lateral views, along with a bilateral (B/V) comparison, is used to evaluate the knee's bones and joint structures. The AP view captures the knee from the front, while the Lateral view provides a side angle, helping to assess the alignment and condition of the knee joint, including the femur, tibia, fibula, and patella.

The bilateral (B/V) view compares the left knee with the right, aiding in the detection of abnormalities such as arthritis, fractures, or joint degeneration. The procedure is quick, non-invasive, and painless, with no special preparation required.

A radiologist will review the results.

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.
