Digital X-Ray of Lumber spine (B/V) AP & Lateral View Price in Bangladesh

What is Digital X-Ray of Lumber spine (B/V) AP & Lateral View?

A Digital X-ray of the lumbar spine in Bilateral (B/V) AP and Lateral views is used to assess the lower back region, including the vertebrae, intervertebral discs, and spinal alignment. The AP view captures the spine from the front, while the Lateral view provides a side angle, offering a more detailed view of the vertebral structures.

This imaging helps identify conditions such as fractures, disc degeneration, arthritis, scoliosis, or misalignment. The procedure is quick, non-invasive, and painless, with no special preparation required.

A radiologist will interpret the results to detect any abnormalities or issues.

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.
