Created by: HLC Which of the following is demonstrated on an AP oblique projection lateral rotation of the elbow?Elbow AP Oblique Lateral (external) rotation
Purpose and Structures Shown This view should demonstrate the bones of the elbow and proximal forearm, as well as the distal humerus and the elbow joint and soft tissue of the elbow in an oblique position.
Which projection demonstrates anterior or posterior displacement of fractures of the hand and wrist?Upper Extremeties. How many degrees should the elbow be angled for an AP lateral oblique projection?An AP oblique radiograph requires the elbow to be oriented 45 degrees in internal rotation. A lateral radiograph of the elbow requires the elbow to be flexed 90 degrees with the forearm and humerus laying flat on the table and the image receptor, ulnar side down on the receptor, and thumb/radial side up.
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.
