You may have been looking at your own xrays in the office or at home, or you may have been looking at xrays on this website, and wondered what normal is. You can't really understand fracture xrays or arthritis xrays without knowing what is normal, can you? That is what this page is all about. Click on the image that you are interested and a larger one will pop up. If you have any questions, just write them down and bring them in with you when you come for your appointment. I want to empower you with information so that you can make better choices about your healthcare. - Dr. Nelson

Remember the admonition from the Patient Education Links Page: the Internet has a lot of information, much of it incorrect. I have reviewed the sites that I have linked to, and have only linked to sites when I personally know the surgeon who posted it, or am a member of the organization that posted it. However, I may not agree with all that is on that site, and it may have changed since I reviewed it. If any of the information is not consistent with what I have told you, please download the material and bring it in.
