Full Desc
“AP” (anterior–posterior) refers to any projection, view, or representation in which an anatomical region is depicted in an anterior-to-posterior orientation. AP includes images acquired by X-ray with the beam directed generally from an anterior or dorsal aspect toward a posterior or plantar aspect with the detector opposite the source; reconstructed or simulated AP projections/views derived from volumetric or other data; and depictions of AP imagery captured from displays or prints, including photographs, screenshots, video frames, or the like. When used as a modifier with any image term (e.g., image, digital photograph, radiographic image, X-ray image, view, or the like), AP denotes the AP projection, view, or representation including minor variations in beam angle, source-to-detector distance, subject positioning, camera viewpoint, or reconstruction parameters that do not materially alter the AP depiction. In the context of the foot, AP includes dorsoplantar (DP) projections/views and the like.
