What it is
A two-view wrist X-ray takes a front and a side picture of the wrist. It is a shorter study than the complete wrist X-ray and is often used to follow a known fracture.
What the price covers
The hospital price usually covers taking the X-ray. The radiologist's reading is often billed separately.
