Created by: HLC Should the elbow be flexed for the lateral projection of the forearm?For the lateral projection of the forearm, the elbow should be flexed The hand consists of how many bones? The IR must be elevated how many degrees for the PA axial projection of the wrist (Stecher method)? The first bone located on the proximal row and lateral side of the wrist is called the
What is the central ray of lateral projection of the elbow?For a lateral projection of the second through fifth digits, the central ray is Soft tissue radiographs of the elbow in the lateral position are often ordered to demonstrate: The PA oblique projection of the wrist in lateral rotation requires a wrist angulation of:
When should a lateral projection of the knee be avoided?The procedure should be avoided if dislocation or separation is suspected. The patient was rotated anteriorly. In a routine (mediolateral) lateral projection of the knee, if the fibular head is seen to be completely free from superimposition of the proximal tibia, what positioning error likely occurred? Oblique the hand no more than 45 degrees.
What are the different projections of the thumb?-supination. -pronation. -medial rotation. -lateral rotation. For the AP projection of the thumb, Lewis suggests angling the central ray toward the wrist to demonstrate the first metacarpal free of the sesamoids and of the soft tissue of the palm.
In what position should the hand be placed for the AP projection of the humerus?Positioning for an AP projection of the humerus
Abduct the arm slightly, and supinate the hand so that epicondyles of the elbow are equidistant from IR. A coronal plane passing through the epicondyles should be parallel with the cassette plane for the AP or posteroanterior (PA) projection.
What is the position of the styloid processes for the lateral projection of the wrist?The ulnar styloid is located at nearly the ulnar-most (the opposite side of the humerus with the elbow flexed) and slightly dorsal aspects of the ulnar head on the axial plane. It should appear almost midway (55% dorsally) from the ulnar head on the standard lateral view of the wrist in neutral forearm rotation.
What projection will clearly demonstrate the phalanges of fingers?Finger lateral view is a standard projection for radiographic assessment of the fingers; it is one of three views of the finger series.
Which of the following is the primary projection used to demonstrate anterior and posterior displacement of fractures of the hand or wrist?Cards
