What is Digital X-Ray of Mastoid Towne`s View(S837)?

A Digital X-Ray of the mastoid in the Towne's view (S837) is a specialized imaging technique used to evaluate the mastoid process, which is the bony area behind the ear. The Towne's view is taken with the patient facing the X-ray machine and tilting their head slightly downward, providing a clear, angled view of the mastoid, temporal bone, and surrounding structures.

This view is particularly useful for assessing conditions such as infections, bone lesions, or fluid accumulation in the mastoid air cells. Radiation exposure is minimal, and the results are interpreted by a radiologist to detect any abnormalities in the mastoid area.

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.
