Elbow X-ray (2 views, both sides)

A child's elbow is the hardest joint in the body to read on an x-ray, because much of it is still cartilage and the bony centers appear at different ages. That is why the uninjured elbow is often filmed alongside the injured one — it provides the normal to compare against. This listing is the two-view elbow study done on both arms.
