Shoulder Flashcards
Name the 3 Series of the shoulder
AP external rotation (greater tub lateral)
AP internal Rotation (lesser tub medial)
AP Baby arm (lesser tub lateral)
AP external rotation profiles:
greater tubercle LATERALLY
AP internal Rotation profiles:
Lesser tubercle MEDIALLY
AP baby arm profiles:
LEsser tubercle LATERALLY
the lesser tub is taller, but greater is more superior
_____ position: is used to eval the integrity of the AC joint
AP weat bearing
AP wt. bearing eval the integrity of the ___ joint
AC joint
An axillary view would be used to eval:
direction of dislocation
evalv fx of the scap processes
Lateral transthoracic view laterally views the ___
humerus
Lateral transthoracic view evals the direction of the ___
dislocation
In a grashy view the pt is ___ positioned
obliquely
____ view allows the tech to view the GH jt without any bony overlap
Grashey
Fxn of a trans-scapular view (y-view)
eval the scap for fx - particularly along the processes
___ study is to eval the entire humerus
long bone study
____ is the first bone to ossify
clavicle
location of the secondary ossification centers of the clavicle
sternum and acromium
___ is not a true jt
AC joint
The humeral axial angle uses the ___ view
external roation view
Normal degrees of the humeral axial angle
M: 60
F: 62
def: _____: a fx where there is no evidence of a fx initially, but it shows a few days later
Occult fx
The GH joint space line uses the ___ view
external rotation view
Normal measurement for the GH joint space lines
Normal: 3-6 mm
- takes the avg over three measurements
What lines increases with a dislocation of effusion of the shoulder
GH joint space lines
