X-ray of Pelvis AP & Inlet & Outlet view Price in Bangladesh

What is X-ray of Pelvis AP & Inlet & Outlet view?

An X-ray of the pelvis with AP (Anteroposterior), Inlet, and Outlet views is used to evaluate the bones and joints of the pelvis, especially for trauma or fractures. The AP view provides a frontal image of the pelvis, helping to detect fractures, dislocations, or deformities.

The Inlet view offers a superior perspective to assess the pelvic ring, particularly in trauma cases like pelvic fractures. The Outlet view provides a lower-angle perspective, helping to assess the sacrum and coccyx alignment.

These views collectively help diagnose conditions such as pelvic fractures, dislocations, or congenital abnormalities. Typically, no special preparation is required.

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.
