What are the routine exams for a HUMERUS (trauma and nontrauma) | AP Lateral |
AP Humerus *routine | 40 SID 70-85 kVp 14x17 IR grid CR @ midhumerus must see entire humerus |
Rotational Lateral Humerus *routine lateromedial or mediolateral projections | 40 SID 70-85 kVp 14x17 IR grid CR @ midhumerus LATEROMEDIAL- body obliqued with affected side against bucky, internally rotate arm so epicondyles are perpendicular to IR MEDIOLATERAL- oblique pt. 20-30 degrees from PA, keep elbow flexed 90 degrees |
Horizontal Beam Lateral Humerus *routine OR trauma lateromedial projection | 40 SID 65-85 kVp 10x12 IR nongrid CR @ midpoint of distal 2/3 of humerus |
Why would you perform a transthoracic lateral projection of the humerus? | when there's trauma to the humerus and you cannot rotate the arm |
Transthoracic Lateral Humerus *trauma only | 40 SID 70-85 kVp 14x17 IR grid CR @ mid-diaphysis through the thorax expose during orthostatic respiration (gentle, short, shallow breaths) *if pt. in too much pain to drop shoulder and elevate the opposite shoulder over the head, angle CR 10-15 degrees cephalad |
What are the routine exams for the SHOULDER (nontrauma)? | AP external rotation AP internal rotation Grashey Y-View Axial |
AP External Rotation Shoulder (proximal humerus) *nontrauma | 40 SID 70-85 kVp 10x12 IR grid CR @ 1 in inferior to coracoid process expose on expiration *pt palm of hand supinated *epicondyles parallel to IR *greater tubercle in profile |
AP Internal Rotation Shoulder (proximal humerus) *nontrauma | 40 SID 70-85 kVp 10x12 IR grid CR @ 1 in inferior to coracoid process *pt palm of hand pronated *epicondyles perpendicular to IR *Lesser tuberosity in profile |
Inferosuperior Axial Shoulder *nontrauma *SPECIAL* "Lawrence Method" | 40 SID 70-80 kVp 10x12 IR grid CR directed medially 25-30 degrees cephalad, centered horizontally into axilla and humeral head. *keep arm flexed @ 90 degrees, if less than, decrease CR angle to 15-20 degrees *palm up *lesser tuberosity in profile |
What are the routine exams for a SHOULDER (trauma series) | AP neutral rotation Transthoracic lateral (lawrence) Scapular Y lateral |
AP Neutral Rotation Shoulder *trauma | 40 SID 70-85 kVp 10x12 IR grid CR @ midscapulohumeral joint - 3/4 in. inferior and slightly lateral to corocoid process *expose on expiration |
Transthoracic Lateral Shoulder *trauma | 40 SID 70-85 kVp 10x12 IR grid CR directed through thorax to the level of the affected surgical neck *expose during orthostatic breathing |
Scapular Y Lateral Shoulder *trauma | 40 SID 70-85 kVp 10x12 IR grid CR perpendicular to IR, directed @ scapulohumeral joint Expose on suspended breath *pt obliqued 45-60 degrees, and abduct arm slightly |
What are some special projections of the shoulder that can be used for non trauma patients? | -Tangential Bicipital Groove Shoulder -Grashey Method |
Intertubercular (Bicipital) Groove Shoulder *nontrauma *SPECIAL | 40 SID 55-75 kVp 8x10 IR nongrid CR perpendicular to IR, directed to groove area at midanterior margin of humeral head *expose on suspended breath *pt can be erect or supine |
Glenoid Cavity Posterior Oblique Shoulder *nontrauma "Grashey Method" *SPECIAL | 40 SID 70-85 kVp 10x12 IR grid CR perpendicular to IR, centered to scaphohumeral joint - 2 in inferior and medial from the superolateral border of shoulder *expose on suspended breath *pt obliqued 35-45 degrees toward the affected side - opens up glenoid cavity |

What are the routine exams for the CLAVICLE? | AP AP Axial |
AP Axial Clavicle | 40 SID 65-85 kVp 10x12 IR grid CR angled 15-30 degrees cephalad to midclavicle *expose during suspended breathing *asthenic pts require 10-15 degrees more angle than hypersthenic pts |
AP Clavicle | 40 SID 65-85 kVp 10x12 IR grid CR perpendicular to IR, centered at midclavicle *must have both AC and SC joints on image |
AP AC and SC Joints weight bearing and non weight bearing | 72 SID 65-80 kVp 14x17 IR crosswise CR @ manubrium expose during suspended respiration *take first exposure without weights *8-10lb weights should be attached to wrists so the arms and clavicles will be relaxed for the 2nd projection |
What are the routine exams of the SCAPULA? | AP Lateral |
AP Scapula Erect | 40 SID 70-85 kVp 10x12 IR grid minimum of 3 sec exposure time with optional breathing technique (3-4) seconds preferred CR perpendicular to midscapula, 2 in inferior to coracoid process, or to level of axilla and 2 in medial |
45 degree LAO Scapula | 40 SID 75-85 kVp no AEC - manual only 10x12 IR grid CR @ midvertebral border of scapula *this view best demonstrates the body of the scapula |
60 degree LAO Scapula | 40 SID 70-85 kVp no AEC - manual only 10x12 IR grid CR @ midvertebral border of scapula *best demonstrates the acromion and coracoid processes |
