Sections:
Spine radiography is utilised in both trauma and general imaging. Spine radiography explores the cervical, thoracic, lumbar, and sacral regions. In more specialised departments, full-length spine radiography via projectional, CT, or slit-beam digital radiography is still frequently utilised in the diagnosis and management of scoliosis.
