What is a X ray Both CALCANEUM LATERAL VIEW Test in Bangalore ?

An X-ray lateral view of both calcaneums produces side images of the heel bones. It shows bone shape, cracks, alignment, and hard growths like heel spurs. The calcaneus is the large bone that supports body weight and links to the Achilles tendon. Its condition affects walking, balance, and pain in the back of the foot. This X-ray helps find fractures after injury and explains chronic heel pain. It also detects arthritis, bone infection, and some tumors or cysts. Doctors use this image to confirm a break, decide if surgery or casting is needed, monitor healing over time, and determine if more detailed scans are required. The test is quick, widely available, and usually well tolerated.

Why Take a X ray Both CALCANEUM LATERAL VIEW Test in Bangalore ?

What is lateral position for calcaneus X-ray in Bangalore?plus

The lateral position for a calcaneus X‑ray: the patient lies on the affected side with the knee flexed (or supine with the foot turned laterally). The foot is dorsiflexed to 90° so the plantar surface is perpendicular to the image receptor, which is placed against the lateral heel. The X‑ray beam is directed perpendicular to and centered on the calcaneal body/subtalar region.

Can you see a calcaneus fracture on an X-ray in Bangalore?plus

Yes — many calcaneal fractures are visible on plain X‑rays (lateral and axial/Harris views); a reduced Bohler’s angle often suggests injury. Small, intra‑articular or hairline fractures can be occult on X‑ray. If clinical suspicion remains despite a normal radiograph, CT is recommended for higher sensitivity and for detailed assessment of fracture pattern and joint involvement to guide treatment.

What is the centering point for a calcaneus X-ray in Bangalore?plus

The centering point for a calcaneus X‑ray is at the calcaneus, at the level of the subtalar joint (about 1 inch/2.5 cm anterior to the lateral malleolus). For the axial (plantodorsal/Harris) view, angle the central ray approximately 40° cephalad to the long axis of the foot and center on the calcaneus.

Where is the central ray placed for a lateral projection of the lateral calcaneus in Bangalore?plus

For a lateral projection of the calcaneus, the central ray is perpendicular to the calcaneus and centered at the calcaneal tuberosity. Direct the beam to the level of the subtalar joint, entering approximately 1 inch (2.5 cm) inferior to the medial malleolus, ensuring the entire calcaneus and subtalar joint are included.

What is the lateral calcaneus in Bangalore?plus

The lateral calcaneus is the outer portion of the calcaneus (heel bone) that forms the lateral side of the hindfoot. It includes bony landmarks and surfaces for attachment of ligaments (calcaneofibular ligament) and tendons (peroneal tendons), helps transmit weight and provides lateral stability during walking and standing. Injury or bruising here causes lateral heel pain and swelling.

How to take lateral view X-ray in Bangalore?plus

Position the patient with the affected side against the image receptor, body perpendicular to the beam; align the central ray perpendicular to the receptor at the level of interest. Ensure correct centering and collimation, remove artifacts, place a side marker, and use appropriate exposure settings. Instruct the patient to hold still (or take a full inspiration for chest lateral), and shield gonads as needed.
