What are the routine exams of the forearm? AP Lateral
What is wrong if there is excessive separation between the radius and ulna on an AP forearm projection? Excessive Lateral Rotation
AP Forearm 60-75 kV 40 SID 14x17 IR nongrid CR @ mid forearm MUST SEE entire radius/ulna humeral epicondyles slight superimposition of distal radioulnar joint
Lateral Forearm 60-75 kV 40 SID 14x17 IR nongrid CR @ mid forearm MUST SEE 90 degree elbow flex entire radius/ulna head of ulna superimposed over radius
What are the routine exams of an elbow? AP Lateral Oblique Medial Oblique Lateral
AP Elbow Fully Extended 60-75 kV 40 SID 14x17 IR nongrid CR @ mid-elbow joint MUST SEE entire elbow joint very slight superimposition of radial head by the ulna
For the two AP Elbow partial flex projections, if the patient cannot extend elbow, and it remains at almost 90 degrees, what should you do? angle the CR 10-15 degrees into the elbow
AP Elbow Partial Flex with humerus parallel (patient cannot fully extend elbow - 2 projections) 60-75 kV 40 SID 14x17 IR nongrid CR @ mid-elbow MUST SEE distal humerus
AP Elbow partial flex forearm parallel (2nd projection) 60-75 kV 40 SID 14x17 IR nongrid CR @ mid-elbow MUST SEE proximal radius/ulna
Which elbow projection/position best demonstrates the radial neck-head with only slight superimposition? AP Oblique - lateral rotation
Which elbow projection/position best demonstrates the coronoid process? AP Oblique - medial rotation
Which fat pad of the elbow will only appear on x-ray if there's a joint pathologic process? Posterior Fat Pad
Why does the elbow need to be in 90 degree flexion to determine whether the posterior fat pad is visible or not? When elbow is flexed more or less than 90 degrees it pushes the fat pad into different position, it can show up on x-ray then when there's no pathologic issue
for an AP forearm, the distal humeral epicondyles are _____ to the IR parallel
For the lateral forearm, the distal humeral epicondyles are _____, or _____ over the IR Superimposed Perpendicular
Epicondyles must be _____ to the IR for an AP fully extended elbow projection. Parallel
AP Oblique Lateral (External) Rotation 60-75 kVp 40 SID 10x12 IR nongrid CR @ midelbow joint MUST SEE Radial head, neck, and tuberosity , lateral epicondyle and capitulum in profile
AP Oblique Medial (Internal) Rotation 60-75 kVp 40 SID 10x12 IR nongrid CR @ midelbow joint MUST SEE coronoid process, trochlea, and medial epicondyle
AP Lateral Elbow 60-75 kVp 40 SID 10x12 IR nongrid CR @ midelbow joint MUST SEE 3 concentric arcs, olecranon process
What are some special projections of the elbow? Acute Flexion Trauma Axial (Coyle Method) Radial Head Laterals
Acute Flexion (1st Projection) CR perpendicular to Humerus 60-75 kVp 40 SID 10x12 IR nongrid CR perpendicular to IR and distal humerus, midway between epicondyles
Acute Flexion (2nd Projection) CR Perpendicular to proximal forearm 60-75 kVp 40 SID 10x12 IR nongrid CR perpendicular to forearm - 2 in superior to olecranon process
Why would you perform an acute flexion projection? Looking for moderate dislocations of elbow and patient cannot move elbow
Trauma Axial Lateral *Coyle Method* for radial head elbow flexed 90 degrees* CR angled 45 degrees toward the shoulder
Trauma Axial Lateral *Coyle Method* for coronoid process elbow flexed 80 degrees* CR angled 45 degrees away from the shoulder
Why would you perform the Coyle Method? When there's trauma to the radial head or coronoid processes
COYLE METHOD alternative view supine, CR angled 45 degrees to the shoulder, elbow flexed 90 degrees to view Radial Head
COYLE METHOD alternative view supine, CR angled 45 degrees away from the shoulder, elbow flexed 80 degrees to view Coronoid Process
What is the only difference among the four radial head lateral projections of the elbow? the rotational positioning of the wrist exposure factors stay the same
Why would you perform any of the 4, or all 4 of the radial head lateral views? To view occult Fx's of the radial head or neck
Some sites use this projection as part of their routine elbow series. Which one is it? "Radial Head View" Trauma Axial Lateral - Coyle Method - Radial Head
According to the textbook, the CR is perpendicular to the IR and humerus, directed to a point midway between epicondyles for ______ when the elbow is in acute flexion. Acute Flexion of Distal Humerus
How many exposures are required for the AP Acute Flexion series? 2 projections: Acute Flexion of Distal Humerus Acute Flexion of Proximal Forearm
How much is the elbow flexed for a Trauma Axial Lateral Projection (Coyle Method) to demonstrate the coronoid process? 80 Degrees
Which oblique elbow projection best demonstrates the coronoid process? AP Oblique projection - Medial rotation
Which oblique elbow projection best demonstrates the radial head and neck? AP Oblique projection - Lateral rotation
Which elbow projection best demonstrates pathologic issues such as osteomyelitis and arthritis? Lateral Elbow projection (lateromedial)
According to the textbook, the CR perpendicular to the forearm (angling CR as needed), directed to a point 2 in proximal or superior to the olecranon process, with the elbow in acute flexion, indicates which projection/position? Acute Flexion Elbow - Proximal Forearm
Which trauma axial elbow projection has the elbow flexed 80 degrees? And what specific anatomy is this projection demonstrating? Which way is the tube angled for this projection? Trauma Axial Lateral - Coronoid Process 45 degrees away from the elbow
Which Trauma Axial Lateral projection has the elbow in 90 degree flexion with the hand pronated? What specific anatomy does this projection demonstrate? Which way is the tube angled for this? Trauma Axial Lateral - Radial Head 45 degrees towards the shoulder
Which projection/position best demonstrates occult fractures or the radial head or neck? any 4 of the Radial Head Laterals
How is the CR angled for the radial head lateral view? 45 degrees towards the shoulder
What is in profile for a lateral oblique elbow? radial head radial neck capitulum
What anatomy is in profile for a medial oblique elbow? trochlea coronoid semilunar notch
