X-Ray Dorsal Spine Lat View

What is an X-ray Dorsal Spine LAT View Test?

An X-Ray Dorsal Spine LAT View is a non-invasive assessment that allows you to see the twelve thoracic vertebrae (T1 - T12) that comprise the middle portion of your spine. 

Why is it Done? 

The X-ray Dorsal Spine LAT View identifies the cause of severe back pain and searches for lesions or fractures to the spinal bones (vertebrae). Identify any malignancies, arthritis, osteoporosis, or suspected spinal infections. Additionally, evaluate the spine for curvature abnormalities, such as lordosis, kyphosis, scoliosis, and birth defects.
