PA wrist positioning

Flex the digits to place the wrist in close contact with the IR and to decreases OID to image receptor Shoulder, elbow, and wrist joints should be in the same plane Collimate 2.5" proximal and distal to wrist joint and 1" on sides.

Lateral Forearm

AP Forearm

CR: 0° = Perpendicular to mid point of the forearm IR: 14 x 17" Lengthwise Epicondyles parallel to IR SID: 40 kVp: 55 and mAs 3 Do not do PA because radius and ulna cross each other

AP Thumb

CR: 0° to MCP of thumb kVp 40 and mAS 1 IR: 10 x 12" Collimate 1" on all sides of the digit including 1" proximal to CMC. Place hand in extreme internal rotation.

PA Axial Scaphoid

Ulnar Deviation with CR 10° to 15° Angle

PA Finger

CR: PIP joint SID: 40 kVp 40 and mAS 1 IR: 10 x 12" -Open IP & MCP joints -Entire digit from fingertip to distal portion of metacarpal

Ball Catchers/ Norgaard Method

CR: Perpendicular to the midpoint between the hands at the level of the MCP joints kVp 55 and mAS 2 IR: 10 x 12" Portrait SID: 40" Is done for diagnosis of Rheumatoid arthritis.

Lateral Humerus Positioning

CR: parallel Internally rotate hand, placing back of hand against thigh. Epicondyles perpendicular to cassette, arm slightly abducted. kVp 65 and 5 mAs

AP Forearm x- ray

Collimate to include both joint.

Radial Deviation X- ray

Distal radius and ulna, Hamulus of hamate, pisiform , triquetrum and lunate.

AP ELBOW

IR: 10 x 12" Lengthwise SID: 40 kVp: 55 and mAs 3 • CR perpendicular to IR directed to the mid elbow joint (3/4" distal to the midpoint of the line between humeral epicondyles) • SID 40 inches • Lead apron over patients lap • 4 borders of collimation

Styloid process of ulna

Is distal

coronoid process of ulna

Is proximal and anterior

olecranon process of ulna

Is proximal and posterior

Fan Lateral x-ray

Metacarpals, carpals, radius and ulna are superimposed

Hand Routine

PA Oblique "Fan" Lateral

PA Oblique Hand X- ray

Partial superimposition of the third, fourth and fifth metacarpal bases and head

Carpal bones from lateral to medial:

Proximal Row: Scaphoid, lunate, triquetrum, pisiform Distal Row: trapezium, trapezoid, capitate, hamate

PA Wrist x-ray

Shows open radioulnar space

Lateral wrist x-ray

Superimposed distal radius and ulna Superimposed metacarpals Lunate is in profile No rotation

PA Scaphoid/Modified Stretcher Method

Two ways to do it: 1-Hand elevated 20° (no ulnar deviation) 2-Hand elevated 20° (with ulnar deviation) No CR angulation The scaphoid is in profile Ulnar Deviation to see fractures of the scaphoid Elongate the scaphoid

Lateral Humerus X-ray

Ø Lateral of entire humerus Ø Shoulder and elbow joints Ø Epicondyles directly superimposed Ø Lesser tubercle in profile medially Ø 2 inches of the proximal forearm Ø Surgical neck demonstrated

AP Humerus X-ray

ØAP of entire Humerus Ø Soft tissue structures Ø Anatomical and Surgical necks Ø Glenoid fossa Ø 2 inches of proximal forearm Ø Shoulder and Elbow joints Ø Greater Tubercle in profile laterally Ø Humeral head in profile medially

PA Oblique elbow
