IDENTIFY THE VIEW

Age where ossification of clavicle, scapular body, and humeral shaft begins

Age of ossification center for proximal humeral head

The bone development, the greater and lesser tuberosity appears at the age of______

The following are indication for routine radiologic examination of the shoulder

Aly was referred to radiology for an xray of the shoulder the following are the correct position

This view is taken in the true AP anatomic position, which places the shoulder and arm in external rotation.

The average width of the glenohumeral joint can be observed by drawing lines across the joint surfaces and the average distance is __________

Minimal widening of the acromioclavicular joint space with the coracoclavicular distance still within normal range: AC ligaments are sprained.

Identify the grade of the AC joint sprain

Widening of the AC joint space to 1.0 to 1.5 cm with a 25% to 50% increase in the coracoclavicular distance: AC ligaments are torn, coracoclavicular ligaments are sprained.

Widening of the acromioclavicular joint space 1.5 cm or greater with a 50% or more increase in the coracoclavicular distance: Both the AC and coracoclavicular ligaments are torn.

In viewing the scapula should be position into

The patient's position in the lateral view of the scapula

The first imaging test performed for most suspected bone and soft tissue abnormalities of the shoulder

The following are imaging planes for CT and MRI

The following are the practice guidelines for CT of the shoulder

The axial scanning plane is ________ to the humeral shaft.

The oblique sagittal plane is parallel to the bony __________ of the shoulder.

The oblique coronal is parallel to the ________ a shoulder muscle.

Synovitis of the shoulder is best seen using this imaging modality

Contraindication in using MRI as an imaging modality.

This ligament an oval band that encloses the head of the radius and attaching it to the anterior and posterior margins of the radial notch; allows radial head to rotate.

(note: ligament pertaining to the red mark on x-ray)

The Normal ROM of elbow flexion is _______.

Ossification of elbow begins at ____________ of fetal life at the shafts of the humerus, ulna and radius; they are the only ones visible on xray at birth, the rest of the elbow is still cartilage

The second most common fx in children, can develop compartment syndrome called (Volkmann’s contracture due to occlusion of brachial artery

Identify this fracture

Distal humerus fracture describes as oblique fracture uncommon in adults but can be seen in children

Most common distal humeral fracture in adults & results from a direct force that causes the wedgelike olecranon to be driven into the distal humeral articular surface, splitting the condyles

Fracture radial shaft only, involving proximal 3rd w/ associated dislocation or subluxation of the distal radioulnar joint

Fracture of ulnar shaft only, usually due to a direct blow during a defensive maneuver

Affects flexor muscle group at the musculotendinous junction and its origin on the medial epicondyle

Involves musculotendinous junction of the extensor carpi radialis brevis muscle at the lateral epicondyle

Localized joint injury that involves a separation of a segment of cartilage and subchondral bone from the articlar surface.Most common at the knee (75%) but can also occur in the elbow, wrist and ankle.

Radiographic sign of osteochondritis dessicans

This joint allows cupping of the palm

Age of ossification center for triquetrum appears, and followed by lunate, trapezium, trapezoid and scaphoid up to age 6

Age of complete ossification at the carpals

Recommended projection for the wrist and hand

This view allows better visualization of phalanges,carpals,metacarpals, and all joints of the hand

demonstrates the phalanges, metacarpals, carpals, and all joints of the hand in an oblique view

The thumb is seen in a true _ projection

Oblique projections best shown the trapezium,

the scaphoid, and the first carpometacarpal

joint of the thumb

This type of projection is tangential infero-superior view of the wrist that allows visualization of the carpal sulcus
