They help diagnose conditions like fractures, arthritis, dislocations, infections, and congenital deformities by providing comprehensive images of both hands from different angles.

Digital X-rays offer better image clarity, lower radiation exposure, instant results, and easier sharing of images compared to traditional film X-rays.
