What is a X RAY Both CALCANEUM AP and Lateral VIEW Test ?
An X RAY Both CALCANEUM AP and Lateral VIEW takes X‑ray pictures of the heel bone from front (AP) and side (lateral) angles. It shows bone shape, alignment, fractures, bone spurs, and signs of infection or bone loss. The calcaneum supports your weight and is essential for walking and standing. Detecting problems early can reduce long‑term pain and disability. Doctors use these images after an injury, for persistent heel pain, to plan treatment or surgery, and to monitor healing. Two views help reveal small fractures or misalignment that a single view might miss.
X RAY Both CALCANEUM AP and Lateral VIEW Test Preparation
No special preparation is required.

Why Take a X RAY Both CALCANEUM AP and Lateral VIEW Test ?
X RAY Both CALCANEUM AP and Lateral VIEW is commonly ordered as part of a musculoskeletal imaging workup for heel pain or after ankle/foot injury. Doctors ask for it when patients have swelling, bruising, inability to bear weight, or focal tenderness. It helps diagnose fractures, stress injuries, bone spurs, arthritis, infection, or tumors. Abnormal findings most often follow trauma, repetitive stress, degenerative change, or infection, and family history of bone disease or cancer may prompt earlier imaging.
