Q

Clinical Indications
• The lateral in either extension or flexion is an alternative to the fan lateral for localization of foreign bodies of the hand and fingers; it also demonstrates anterior or posterior displaced fractures of the metacarpals.
The lateral in a natural flexed position may be less painful for the patient.
