What is the axial view of the calcaneus X-ray?plus

The axial view (Harris‑Beath or plantodorsal projection) of the calcaneus is an X‑ray taken with the heel on the image receptor and the beam angled cephalad about 40° to the foot’s long axis. It shows the calcaneal tuberosity, posterior facet and subtalar joint, and is used to assess fractures, Bohler’s angle, calcaneal width and posterior facet displacement.

What is lateral position for calcaneus X-ray?plus

Lateral position for a calcaneus X‑ray: the patient lies on the side with the affected foot closest to the detector, knee flexed about 45°. The ankle is in a neutral lateral orientation so the calcaneus contacts the image receptor. The central X‑ray beam is perpendicular to the detector and centered on the calcaneus (around the subtalar joint) to include the entire calcaneus and ankle.

How is the cr angle for an axial projection of the calcaneus?plus

For an axial (plantodorsal) calcaneus projection, the central ray is angled approximately 40° cephalad to the long axis of the foot. Aim the beam at the plantar surface toward the base of the third metatarsal so it exits over the calcaneus. This angle best profiles the calcaneal tuberosity and subtalar joint; some protocols allow a slight variation (about 35–45°).

What is the X-ray for a calcaneal fracture?plus

Standard X‑rays for a suspected calcaneal (heel bone) fracture are lateral and axial (Harris) views. The lateral film shows Bohler’s and Gissane angles and displacement; the axial view assesses heel width and medial/lateral column shift. Broden (oblique) views may clarify the posterior facet. CT is commonly obtained for complex fractures and surgical planning.

How should I prepare for X Ray both Calcaneum Lateral and Axial View?plus

Wear loose clothing without metal fasteners and remove jewellery before X Ray both Calcaneum Lateral and Axial View. Bring your referral, ID, and any earlier scans so the radiologist can compare.

Is X Ray both Calcaneum Lateral and Axial View safe if I am pregnant?plus

Tell the centre before X Ray both Calcaneum Lateral and Axial View if you are or might be pregnant. Ultrasound and MRI use no ionising radiation; for X-ray or CT the team will decide the safest approach or suggest an alternative.
