What is an X-ray Lumbar Spine Extension Test?

This examination employs X-rays to obtain pictures of the 5-vertebrae lumbar spine. This test is used to determine if the spine is unstable in spondylolisthesis, a condition that causes lower back discomfort. The patient is asked to lean back from the lower back for the extension view.

Why is it done? 

  • * To identify spine tumors, arthritis, osteoporosis, or infections
  • * To identify potential disc issues such as spondylolisthesis or disc degeneration.
  • * To examine for anomalies in the spine's curvature, such as lordosis, kyphosis, scoliosis, or birth deformities.
  • * To find the reason for the long-lasting lower back discomfort.
