At Aarthi Scans and Labs, we strongly believe that the cost of diagnosing a disease should never push a patient into financial hardship or make their treatment unaffordable. Unfortunately, the high cost of diagnostic services across the country often leads to delayed diagnoses, unaffordable tests, and limited access to advanced facilities leaving millions vulnerable.
Our vision is simple yet powerful; no one should suffer because a diagnosis is out of reach. To make this a reality, we have consistently kept our pricing 50–60% lower than the industry average, especially for essential services like MRI, CT, and blood tests. We also provide reduced pricing during night hours, further easing access for patients.
Over the last 36 years, it has been the trust of our patients, their word of mouth, and our unwavering commitment to delivering advanced, compassionate diagnostics that have helped us scale and sustain this model. By combining exceptional diagnostic capabilities with affordability, we continue to fight for a healthcare system where early, accurate diagnosis is accessible to all.
At Aarthi Scans and Labs, affordability is at the heart of our vision:“The cost to diagnose a disease should not make a patient poor, that their treatment becomes unaffordable.” Guided by this principle, we have priced our scans and blood tests 50–60% lower than the market rate, without compromising on quality or accuracy.
We achieve this through:
Serving a large patient base allows us to keep costs low and pass on the benefit directly to patients.
Automation and digital workflows reduce manual work in reporting, improving speed while cutting costs.
Our leadership operates with in-depth knowledge of local needs, ensuring effective and cost-conscious operations.
We invest wisely in facilities and real estate, avoiding unnecessary overheads.
Every rupee is spent with care, prioritizing patient benefit over extravagance.
We ensure that our savings is passed directly to the patients instead of intermediaries.

An X-ray Lumbar Spine Lateral View produces a side image of the lower back, helping detect disc problems, arthritis, or injury. The scan takes 5–10 minutes, and the report is issued within 6 hours. It costs ₹275, with low to moderate radiation exposure kept within safe limits.
An X-ray Lumbar Spine Lateral view is a non-invasive and painless imaging technique that displays the lower back or lumbar spine from a side angle. Doctors use this type of x-ray to diagnose a variety of conditions like fractures, disc problems, arthritis, and abnormalities in the spine.
X-ray beams are passed through the body as the patient is positioned on their side. It helps in examining the breaks or tiny cracks in the vertebrae in the lower back, herniation, reveal spinal tumors and so on.
An X-ray Lumbar Spine Lateral View captures the side profile of the lower back vertebrae. It helps detect disc space narrowing, fractures, spondylolisthesis, or degenerative changes. Doctors recommend it for persistent lower back pain, injury, or suspected spinal disorders.
Before your X-ray Lumbar Spine Lateral View scan, our radiographer will review your medical history, symptoms such as lower back pain, stiffness, or injury, and any previous spine surgeries or imaging. You will be asked to remove any metallic objects, including jewelry, belts, coins, or clothing with zippers and buttons, as these can interfere with image quality.
If you are pregnant or think you may be, it’s important to inform the radiographer before the procedure so that necessary safety precautions can be taken or an alternative imaging test can be considered.
No fasting or special preparation is required for this scan. You may continue with your regular meals and medications. Wearing comfortable, loose-fitting clothing or a hospital gown will make the procedure easier and quicker.
During the scan, you will be guided to the X-ray room and positioned either lying on your side or standing, depending on your comfort and the radiographer’s instructions. The lateral view means the X-ray beam passes from one side of your lower back to the other, capturing a detailed side profile of your lumbar spine.
The radiographer will carefully position your body so that the lower back is properly aligned and supported. A digital detector or X-ray plate will be placed on the opposite side to capture the image. You will be asked to stay still and hold your breath for a few seconds while the X-ray is taken to prevent motion blur.
The procedure is quick, completely painless, and usually takes less than 10 minutes. Only a minimal and safe dose of radiation is used to visualize the vertebrae, disc spaces, and alignment of the lumbar spine.
After the scan, you can resume your normal daily activities immediately. There are no side effects or recovery time required. If you were asked to wear a gown, you can change back into your clothes right away.
The X-ray images will be reviewed by our radiologist to look for any abnormalities such as fractures, disc degeneration, misalignment, or signs of arthritis.
A detailed report will be prepared and shared with your referring doctor or orthopaedician, who will review the findings and suggest further investigations or treatment if necessary.
The cost of lumbar spine lateral view at Aarthi Scans and Labs starts at Rs. 275 only.
