Where is Cr centered for AP Oblique Projection – Glenoid Cavity (Grashey Method): Shoulder (Nontrauma CR perpendicular to IR, centered to scapulohumeral joint, which is approximately2 inches inferior & 2 inches medial from the superolateral border of shoulder
CR centering for AP projection shoulder (internal or external rotation) to 1 inch inferior to coracoid process or 2 inches inferior to the lateral portion of the more readily palpated AC joint*
Where us Cr fir Transthoracic Lateral Projection: Proximal Humerus (Shoulder) surgical neck
Which positions use orthostatic breathing technique? Transthoracic lateral projection : proximal humerus shoulder, AP Scapula
what angle can be given to CR if patient cannot drop shoulder in transthoracic lateral position? angle CR 10° to 15° cephalad*
Where is the CR directed for Oblique Projection – Scapular Y Lateral: Shoulder (Trauma)? scapulohumeral joint (2 inches below AC joint)
What is the angle of the CR for AP Axial Projection: Clavicle? mid clavicle CR 15° to 30° cephalad to
Where is the CR placed for AP Projection (Pearson Method): AC Joints (with & without weights)? CR perpendicular to midpoint between AC joints, 1 inch above jugular notch
What projection may be performed for suspected AC joint subluxation or dislocation Alternative AP Axial Projection (Alexander Method): This method requires a 15° cephalic angle centered at the level of the affected AC joint. It projects the AC joint superior to the acromion, providing optimal visualization.
What projection may be performed for suspected AC joint subluxation or dislocation & for soft tissue pathologies Alternative AP Axial Projection (Zanca Method)
What method What is Alternative AP Axial Projection (Zanca Method) 10° to 15° cephalic angle centered at the level of the affected AC joint, projects the AC joint superior to the acromion, 50% less kilovoltage than a standard glenohumeral exposure to better visualize the soft tissue & joint detail of the AC joint.
What adjustments can be made to the AP Axial projection if the patient must stay supine? Tie both ends of a long strip of gauze to the patient’s wrists & place the strip around the patient’s feet with the knees partially flexed. Then, slowly & gently straighten the legs & pull down on the shoulders. (a protected assistant can pull down arms)
where is the CR for AP Projection: Scapula? perpendicular to midscapula, 2 inches inferior to coracoid process, or to level of axilla, and approximately 2 inches medial form lateral border of patient
what is a bankart lesion? small avulsion fracture in the anteroinferior region of the glenoid rim
What is the best modality to evaluate a possible rotator cuff tear? MRI
tendon with most common inury to rotator cuff supraspinatus
