Why X-Ray Skull AP is Important
The X-Ray Skull AP view plays an important role in understanding head injuries, bone deformities, and sinus issues. It is often recommended after trauma or when there’s suspicion of fractures, infections, or tumors in the cranial region. At Diagnopein in Karad, the scan helps in:
-
Detecting skull fractures after accidental injuries.
-
Identifying bone infections, tumors, or calcium deposits.
-
Evaluating sinus abnormalities and chronic sinusitis.
-
Assessing congenital skull deformities or post-surgical conditions.
Doctors recommend this X-ray for patients experiencing persistent headaches, dizziness, facial pain, or swelling, to rule out any bone-related causes.

How the X-Ray Skull AP Test is Performed
The X-Ray Skull AP test is simple and typically completed within 10–15 minutes. The procedure steps at Diagnopein Karad include:
-
The patient is asked to remove any metallic objects such as jewelry, spectacles, or hairpins.
-
The patient is positioned facing the X-ray machine, with the back of the head against the detector.
-
A radiographer ensures the correct alignment for the anteroposterior (AP) view.
-
The X-ray beam is passed through the skull from front to back, capturing detailed images.

After the scan, the radiologist analyzes the images and prepares a report, which is made available promptly.
The test does not require fasting or any special preparation. It is entirely painless and safe, even for children, as we use low radiation settings compliant with international standards.
