What is a X RAY Both CALCANEUM AP VIEW Test in Kolkata ?
What is X RAY Both CALCANEUM AP VIEW?
An AP (anteroposterior) X-ray of both calcaneum takes a front-to-back picture of the heel bones. It shows bone shape, alignment, and clear breaks or large bone changes. This view helps find fractures, bone spurs, arthritis changes, infections, and some tumors in the heel. Physical examination provides clues; a test result removes ambiguity and allows targeted, evidence-based management to begin promptly.
What does X RAY Both CALCANEUM AP VIEW measure?
Doctors use it after an injury or for ongoing heel pain. Results help guide treatment such as casting, surgery, or further imaging like CT or MRI when more detail is needed. The test is fast and widely available, with only a small radiation exposure. Laboratory analysis produces a numerical result compared against a reference range derived from a healthy population of equivalent age and gender. Clinical context determines whether a borderline result is significant.
What symptoms suggest X RAY Both CALCANEUM AP VIEW may be needed?
A doctor may order X RAY Both CALCANEUM AP VIEW when a patient reports any symptom your doctor has identified as requiring objective laboratory investigation , including unexplained fatigue, unexplained weight change, persistent pain, fever, or abnormal bleeding. In Kolkata, residents of Ultadanga and Garia commonly present for this test after noticing these symptoms during a routine or preventive consultation.
How is X RAY Both CALCANEUM AP VIEW performed?
GetVisit home collection in Ultadanga or Garia, Kolkata: a certified phlebotomist arrives at your address at your chosen slot (available from 6:00 AM), brings all sterile single-use equipment, collects the sample, and dispatches it to the NABL-accredited lab.

How accurate is X RAY Both CALCANEUM AP VIEW?
Rare causes of inaccurate results include: very high biotin supplementation (interferes with immunoassays), haemolysed samples from difficult venipuncture, or failure to fast when fasting was required. Following preparation instructions and using a trained phlebotomist minimises these risks.
Are there any risks to X RAY Both CALCANEUM AP VIEW?
