pa axial stetcher wrist positioning elevate 20 or angle 20 towards the elbow CR: scaphoid - deviate unla
tangential carpal canal (gaynor-hart) wrist positioning hyper extend rotate hand 10 degree internal CR: 1 inch distal to base of 3rd metacarpal angle 25-30
which hand lateral is performed with foreign body extension lateral
what can you do to put carpals closer to the IR curl the fingers
what carpal bones are demonstrated in the lateral wrist trapezium and scaphoid
the lateral wrist is good for demonstrating what fx colles, smiths, bartons
what is a colles fx posterior fx of distal radius - fall on an outstretched arm
what is a smiths fx anterior fx of the distal radius
how do you locate scaphoid 3/4 inch distal and medial to radial styloid process
AP forearm positioning hand is supinated CR: mid-forearm epicondyle line parallel to IR want humerus and forearm in same plane
lateral forearm positioning CR: mid forearm thumb up flex elbow 90 degrees
ap elbow positioning CR: mid elbow epicondyles parallel to IR
radius and ulna are superimposed how much 1/8
lateral elbow positioning CR: perpendicular to elbow joint hand and wrist in true lateral thumb up
lateral oblique elbow positioning CR: mid elbow radial head is free of superimposition 45 degree hand supinated
medial oblique elbow positioning CR: mid elbow 45 degrees olecranon and coronoid process
AP partial flexion elbow positioning obtain two one with forearm parallel to IR or one with humerus parallel to IR CR: mid elbow
trauma axiolateral coyle method - radial head positioning elbow flexed 90 degrees hand pronated CR: mid-elbow 45 degree angle to shoulder
coyle method - coronoid positioning elbow flexed 80 degrees hand pronated CR: mid elbow 45 degree angle away from the shoulder
AP humerus positioning CR: mid humerus epicondyles parallel to IR
Lateral humerus positioning CR: mid humerus epicondyles perpendicular to the IR should include both joints
neutral humerus position CR: mid humerus directed perp to IR trauma view- palm usually on outside of femur
transthoracic humerus positioning aka lawrence side of interest closest to IR unaffected arm out of way on head CR: mid diaphysis directed through thorax/surgical neck orthostatic breathing technique CR can be angled 10-15 cephalic if you can't raise the arm
AP external shoulder positioning external: epicondlyes are parallel to IR 1 inch inferior to coracoid process suspend respiration
what does the external shoulder demonstrate greater tubercle in profile on the lateral aspect
AP internal shoulder positioning epicondyles are perpendicular to the IR 1 inch inferior to coracoid process
Lawrence shoulder method positioning supine shoulder raised 2 inches from table CR: medial 25-30 degrees
grashey shoulder pos rotate 35-45 toward affected side CR: glenoid cavity 2 inches medial and 3 inches inferior to the lateral border of the shoulder
AP neutral trauma shoulder pos CR: perpendicular to coracoid process demonstrates the greater tubercle rotated anteriorly but still lateral to lesser tubercle
PA oblique scap Y pos 45 - 60 rotation toward affected side arm on stomach CR: perp to mid scapula
NEER pos 45-60 anterior oblique CR: angle 10-15 caudal through the superior margin of the humeral head
neer demonstrates dislocation and fx of proximal humerus and scap
AP scapula pos pt is supine arm abducted to form a right angle with the chest CR: perpendicular to IR 2 inches inferior to coracoid
lateral scapula pos- anterior 45-60 rotation toward the affected side CR: perpendicular to middle of vertebral border of the scapula
posterior oblique lateral scapula pos rotate away from the affected side CR: middle of vertebral border of the scapula
what are the three borders of the scapula vertebral, lateral, superior
what is the thickest border of the scapula lateral
AP / PA clavicle mid clavicle
why do a PA clavicle limit dose and reduce OID
AP axial clavicle mid clavicle 15-30 cephalic for AP 15-30 caudal or PA
the larger the pt the _ the angle for a clavicle less
AC joints W and WO weights 1 inch superior to jugular notch or midway between AC joints
where should the weights be for AC joints and they should be how many pounds 10-15 lbs on the wrist
AP or AP axial toes POS AP: 15 degree foam wedge AP axial: 15 cephalic angle CR: MTP joint of interest
oblique toes pos rotate 30-45 degrees 1-3 toes is internal rotation, 4-5 is external rotation MTP of interest
Lateral toes pos affected toe in lateral position MTP of interest
Tangential sesmoid positioning dorsiflex plantar surface forms 15-20 angle from vertical CR: 1st MTP
what is the largest sesmoid bone patella
AP axial foot Pos 10 degrees posteriorly to the base of the 3rd metatarsal
IP joint classification hinge / ginglymus
MTP joint classification ellipsoidal / condyloid
TMT joint classifcation gliding/plane

how many bones in the foot are there 26
how many phalanges in the toes are there 14
how many metatarsals are there 5
how many carpal bones are there 8

lateral oblique foot pos base of the 3rd metatarsal 30-40 rotation
lateral foot positioning CR: to the base of the 3rd metatarsal mediolateral is more common because it is easier for patient
will you be able to completely superimpose metatarsals for the lateral foot no- because of transverse arch
