Service Providers for Digital X-Ray of Scaphoid view for wrist joint
A digital X-ray of the scaphoid view for the wrist joint is used to specifically assess the scaphoid bone, one of the eight carpal bones in the wrist, for fractures or other abnormalities. During the procedure, the wrist is positioned in a way that provides a clear view of the scaphoid bone, which is located near the base of the thumb. This view is particularly useful for detecting fractures that may not be visible in standard AP or lateral wrist X-rays. The test is non-invasive, typically requires no special preparation, and involves minimal radiation exposure. A radiologist interprets the image to diagnose any fractures or joint issues, with results available shortly after the exam.
