Q

compression frx in the humeral head against the glenoid labrum is called

A

Hill-sachs deformity

19
Q

In 1st digit routines, what do you use as the CR?

A

1 MCP joint

20
Q

2-5 digit CRs are at..

A

at the affected PIP

21
Q

When performing later 2-5 digits, what side should they be on?

A

2nd and 3rd digit are on the radial side

4th-5th digits are on the Ulna side

22
Q

In PA hand, what digit is in an oblique position?

A

The 1st Digit

23
Q

What view is used to show foreign object in hand?

A

Lateral hand (Extension)

24
Q

In a wrist PA projection, how do you position the pt to show the best view of pisiform?

A

This is a Radial deviation, with about 10-15 degrees with CR at the middle of the carpals

25
Q

what must be flexed at 90 degrees in the lateral wrist view?

A

Elbow

26
Q

In this view, the epicondyles are parallel to the IR, posterior surface of the arm is on the IR.

CR is at 2” superior to the olecranon process.

What does this view clearly demonstrate?

A

Acute Flexion, this view shows the olecranon process in view

27
Q

what view is used when pt cannot extnd arm for AP elbow?

A

Partial flexion

28
Q

what elbow view shows the Coronoid process free of superimposition?

A

Medial Rotation (AP oblique)

29
Q

What elbow view shows the radial head and tuberosity free of superimpos

A

Lateral Rotation (AP Oblique)

30
Q

Scapula:

Lies between __ and __ thoracic vertebrae. Its medial border is called ___ and lateral border is called___

A

2nd and 7th, Costal, axial

31
Q

what are the names of the surfaces on the scapula

A

Anterior/ Costal surface, Dorsal/Posterior Surface

32
Q

What bone serves as a fulcrum for the movement of the arm? Why is it doubly curved?

A

Clavicle, for strength

33
Q

What joint is the most common for dislocation?

which direction of the dislocation is a sign for seizure?

A

Shoulder

Posterior dislocation shows sign of seizure

34
Q

what joint dislocation in shoulder region is common in children and is usually X-rayed bilatterally?

A

Acromioclavicular joint

35
Q

If there are suspected frx, you still rotate shoulder (true/false)?

A

False, all 3 views must be done with little to no rotation

36
Q

what view will bring the lesser tubercle into medial view? what view shows the greater tubercle in lateral view?

A

Internal rotation of the shoulder will bring lesser tubercle into profile. External rotation of the shoulder will show greater tubercle in profile

37
Q

Transthoracic shoulder is also known as…

in this position, if pt cannot elevate shoulder, what should you do? CR should be where???

what should the breathing instruction be for this?

A

Lawrence method

CR should be 10-15 degree Caudad and at the surgical neck lvl of the affected arm (against the IR)

Full inspiration to improve contrast

38
Q

Inferosuperior view of the shoulder is also known as…

describe CR and pt position.

A

Lawrence method, again.

Affected shoulder is abducted away from the body, the CR is 15-30 degree medially, at the shoulder joint

39
Q

What angle would you like the PT to be in Scap Y PA oblique shoulder?

A

45-60

40
Q

What can improve quality of the image in Scap Y PA oblique?

A

Compensating filter

41
Q

What degree do you want to rotate the pt in Grashey Method??? and what should be parallel to the board?

A

35-45, Scapula

42
Q

In lateral scapula, what is the pt angulation?

if body of scap is of interest, where should arm be placed?

if acromion and corocoid process are of interest, where should arm be placed?

A

45-60

Arm should be across the chest

Arm should be behind the thorax

43
Q

In AP axial clavicle, what are the 2 RANGES of angulations? which one is for what?

when do you use more angulation?

A

0-15 for standing
15-30 for Supine

The skinnier the pt the more angulation

44
Q

When performing AP bilateral AC joint, it can also be called…

what is the SID for this method?

what is it used to demonstrate?

A

Pearson method

72” SID

Demonstrate dislocation of the AC joint
