Elbow X-ray (3 or more views, both sides)

This is the fuller elbow x-ray — three or more views — billed for both elbows. Three views exist because the elbow is three bones meeting in one hinge and a fracture line hides behind them on any single projection. Filming both elbows is common in children, where the uninjured side shows what that child's normal looks like.
