X-ray Nasal Bone LAT View

What is a Nasal X-ray Bone LAT View Test?

X-rays with lateral nasal views identify nasal fractures. Nasal fractures are frequent in adults and children. Deformity, pain, bleeding, edema, and instability are common symptoms of nasal fractures. Edema may disguise instability and deformities. 

Why is it done? 

The most common type of nasal injury that leads to a broken nose bone is a lateral impact injury. An x-ray helps find why your nose is swollen or why something else is wrong that hurts and needs to be seen from the inside. When a person has been hurt in an accident and their nose, head, or skull, their doctor will ask for an x-ray.
