Plain X-ray of thoracic and lumbar spine, standing (procedure) |
Method |
Conventional projectional imaging that uses ionising radiation to produce images of internal structures by sending X-ray beams through the body which are absorbed in different amounts depending on the density of the structure. Plain X-ray uses X-ray alone and does not include more complex acquisition techniques such as fluoroscopy and computed tomography. |

Plain X-ray of thoracic and lumbar spine, standing (procedure) |
Procedure site - Direct (attribute) |
This volume includes the lumbar segment of the spinal column, its spaces and contents, notably the spinal canal, spinal meninges and spinal cord within this segment. It also includes the muscles associated with the lumbar spine within (and including) the anterior and posterior thoracolumbar fascia. This region also includes the spinal ventral (anterior) and dorsal (posterior) roots, the dorsal root (spinal) ganglions and the spinal nerve trunks of the lumbar segment. |
