In this view, the hands are placed flat on the X-ray table with the palms facing down, allowing for a clear and symmetrical image of both hands. The PA view is useful for assessing the alignment and condition of the bones, joints, and soft tissues in the hands. This X-ray can help diagnose conditions such as fractures, arthritis, deformities, or infections. It is often used to evaluate hand injuries or monitor the progression of chronic hand conditions like osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis.
