Importance of X-Ray Both Knee Standing AP/Skyline View
This imaging technique plays an important role in the evaluation of chronic knee pain, osteoarthritis, injuries, and deformities. At Diagnopein karad, the X-Ray Both Knee Standing AP/Skyline View is recommended for:
-
Detecting early degenerative changes in knee joints
-
Comparing alignment between both knees
-
Determining the degree of joint space narrowing
-
Planning for knee replacement or reconstructive surgeries
-
Monitoring progress of knee treatment
Standing X-rays help doctors analyze the knee while supporting full body weight, offering a more accurate assessment than sitting or lying X-rays. This real-life positioning helps in identifying conditions that may only appear when the knee joints are in motion or bearing weight.
