What are X-Rays good for visualizing and whne should they be ordered?
Bones (also chest pathologies)
first, before any other test
super cheap $
When should you order a CT scan and what are they good at imaging?
After an X-Ray or if you need to view:
Brain injuries, organas, fractured bones
Affordable $$
When should you order an MRI and what does it help you visualize?
LAST! Very expensive $$$
For viewing:
Joint injury
ligements, tendons, visceral organs, bones
What clinical pathology is this showing?
SLAP Tear
- Caused by overuse of the biceps brachii where the tendon will ultimately pull away par of the labrum away from the glenoid fossa (TRAUMA, OVERUSE)
- Common in athletes
- SUPERIOR aspect of the labrum tears
ONLY CAN VIEW ON MRI
What clinical pathology is this?
Anterior Labroligamentous Periosteal Sleeve Avulsion (ALPSA)
- Similar to SLAP but this is not an injury from overuse. Rather, it is associated with RECURRENT DISLOCATIONS
- INERFIOR aspect of the labrum tears
What clinical pathology is this?
Hill-Sachs Deformity
Anterior dislocation leads the posterior portion of the humeral head to rub on the glenoid fossa, creating a divot in the head of the humerus.
Associated with: Recurrent Dislocations
What clinical pathology is this?
Sail Sign
-Anterior Displacement of the Radial Fat Pad
Adults: Caused by radial head fractures
Children: Caused by supracondylar fractures
What clinical pathology is this?
Scaphoid Fracture (left, lower bone)
Get MRI after a couple weeks to see since often won’t show up on X-Ray
