Question
Answer
show A. Lesser tubercle B. Glenoid process C. Intertubercular groove D. Anatomical neck Answer is B. Glenoid process  
🗑
show Sternal extremity  
🗑
True or False. The female clavicle is usually shorter and less curved than the male.   show
🗑
The anterior surface of the scapula is referred to as:   show
🗑
show Subscapular fossa  
🗑
True or False. All of the joints of the shoulder girdle are diartrodial.   show
🗑
Which one of the following joints is considered to have spheroidal type of movement?   show
🗑
show Internal rotation (epicondyle perpendicular to the film).  
🗑
show Neutral rotation  
🗑
True or False. The erect tangential projection for the intertubecular groove results in about twice the skin dose compared to the same projection taken with the patient supine because of the shorter SOD with the erect position.   show
🗑
show Apical oblique  
🗑
show 25 to 30 degrees  
🗑
What additional maneuver must be aded to the inferosuperior axiolateral projection to best demonstrate a possible Hill-Sachs defect?   show
🗑
show AP oblique  
🗑
True or False. The inferosuperior projection of the shoulder demonstrates the acromion process of the shoulder to be located most superiorly (anteriorly).   show
🗑
show True  
🗑
show 10 to 15 degrees.  
🗑
Which ionization chamber for the AEC should be used for a tangential projection for biciptial groove?   show
🗑
What projection should be performed using a breathing technique?   show
🗑
show No CR angle should be used  
🗑
Where is the CR centered for a transthoracic lateral projection?   show
🗑
True or False. The proper name method for the AP oblique projection is the Lawrence method.   show
🗑
show Inferiorly  
🗑
show Lateral scapula  
🗑
How much CR angulation is recommended for an asthenic patient for an AP axial projection of the clavicle?   show
🗑
Where is the CR centered for an AC joint projection on a single 14 x 17 cassette?   show
🗑
show Increase obliquity of the body  
🗑
A transthoracic lateral projection reveals difficulty visualizing the proximal humerus due to the ribs and lung markings. Exposure used 75 kVp, 30 mAs, 40 in SID, grid, suspended respiration. What change will improve the quality of the image?   show
🗑
show Positioning is acceptable; don't repeat it.  
🗑
An AP clavicle reveals that the sternal extremity is partially collimated off. What shoud the technician do?   show
🗑
An anterior oblique scapular Y position reveals that the scapula is slightly obliqued. The axillary border of the scapula is determined to be more lateral as compared with the vertebral border. What modification should be made for the repeat exposure?   show
🗑
A radiologist orders AP rotation projections for patient with arthritic condition of right shoulder, as well as an inferosuperior axiolateral projection. The patient cannot abduct arm. What other projecions will demonstrate scapulohumeral joint space?   show
🗑
A patient comes to ER with possible right AC joint separation. A right clavicle and AC joint exam is ordered. The clavicle is taken first and a small linear fracture of the midshaft of the clavicle is discovered. What should the tech do in this situation?   show
🗑
A patient in ER with severe shoulder pain & history of chronic dislocation of the shoulder. Radiologist wants tech to take an AP shoulder, neutral rotation & a 2nd projection to demonstrate signs of Hill-sachs defect. What other projection will show this?   show
🗑
show Limited AP and recumbent AP scapular Y projection  
🗑
show Non-weight and weight bearing type projections performed recumbent by pulling down on shoulders.  
🗑
show Have patient reach across the chest and grasp opposite shoulder for a lateral scapula.  
🗑
show True  
🗑
show False, humeral head  
🗑
show False, 90 degree  
🗑
True of False. The thyroid dose for a transthoracic lateral and inferosuperior axiolateral shoulder projection are both relatively low, under 10 mrad.   show
🗑
show False  
🗑
show False  
🗑
True or False. AP with 0 degree CR angle and AP axial with 15 to 30 degree CR cephalic angle are both common basic or routine projections for the clavicles in a majority of US hospitals.   show
🗑
show AP proximal humerus  
🗑
AP Projection-Internal Rotation: Shoulder (nontrauma) is also called?   show
🗑
Inferosuperior Axial Projection: Shoulder (nontrauma) is also called?   show
🗑
Superoinferior PA Transaxillary Projection: Shoulder (nontrauma) is also called?   show
🗑
show Clements Modification  
🗑
show Grashey Method  
🗑
Tangential Projection-Intertubecular (Bicipital) Groove: Shoulder (nontrauma) is also called?   show
🗑
show Lawrence Method  
🗑
Tangential Projection-Supraspinatus Outlet: Shoulder (Trauma) is also called?   show
🗑
show Garth Method  
🗑
