An orthopedic doctor can compare the apparent length of the patient's lower limbs and legs from the patient's bedside. But before surgery, there is definitely a need to accurately evaluate the length of the limbs by radiography, as well as check the alignment of the lower limbs.
Also, this method is used to check spine deviation, scoliosis deviation or evaluate pelvic diseases that can lead to pelvic bone deviation. Because in case of deviation or crookedness, it may cause the problem of shortening or lengthening of the lower limbs of the legs.
### **What items are checked in the radiography of the scenogram?**
In this case, it should be specialized radiography scanogram. In specialized radiology, scanogram, like tri-joint radiography or "element radiography" will require all three hip joints, knees and ankles in one graph, which can be done by some radiology centers with existing facilities and experienced personnel.
