What is an X-Ray Both Thigh AP/Lateral View?
X-Ray Both Thigh AP/Lateral View is a diagnostic imaging procedure that uses X-ray radiation to create detailed images of both thighs from two different angles – anteroposterior (AP) and lateral views. This combination provides a comprehensive view of the femur (thighbone), surrounding soft tissues, and joint structures from different perspectives.

- Evaluation of prosthetic implants
- Developmental abnormalities
- Sports-related injuries
