Abdominal X-ray Series (acute, with chest view)

The acute abdominal series is a set of X-rays taken in more than one body position — lying down, and upright or on the side — plus a single chest view. Changing position is the whole point: gas and fluid move, and where they settle is what reveals a blocked or perforated bowel. It is usually ordered urgently for sudden, severe abdominal pain.
