Left foot AP is a safe and painless test to view the bones of the foot which includes the ankle bones (tarsal bones), front end of feet (metatarsal bones), and toes (phalanges) and soft tissues (skin and muscles). Using a special X-ray film, the image is recorded. The X-ray image is black and white. The actual exposure of patient to radiation is usually less than a second, although the overall test may take 15-20 minutes.
