Near Normal X-rays
Near Normal X-ray
Scientific research has established normal spinal configurations and normals for X-rays. An X-ray series should include an A.P. (or frontal) X-ray and a Lateral (or from the side) X-ray.
The lateral should show four curves; the sacral, lumbar, thoracic and cervical curves. The sacral base angle should be between 34° and 42°. The C7 angle should be between 0-7°. The cervical curve angle should be between 34° and 43°. The lumbar curve angle should be between 35° and 47°. The head should be centered directly above the body.
