Are you seeking an affordable X-Ray Both Heel (AP / LAT)? Medifyhome collaborates with leading NABL-certified diagnostic centers and clinics to provide cost-effective, high-quality imaging services. An X-Ray Both Heel (AP /LAT) scan is a diagnostic test that looks at the heel bones (calcaneus) and other components. The AP (Anteroposterior) view is a front-to-back image, whereas the LAT (Lateral) view is a side profile that can assist in detecting fractures, bone spurs, infections, arthritis, and other abnormalities. This scan is essential for detecting heel pain, monitoring post-surgical recovery, and evaluating bone health.
