Shoulder & Humerus : Radiographic Technique

Master Shoulder and Humerus Radiographic Techniques
This comprehensive PowerPoint presentation is designed to help radiography students, educators, and early-career radiographers gain proficiency in imaging the shoulder and humerus. The presentation covers essential radiographic techniques, from proper positioning to image evaluation, ensuring high-quality diagnostic images for accurate assessment.

📸 What’s Inside:

🦴 Anatomy of the Shoulder and Humerus

• Overview of key shoulder structures: clavicle, scapula (including the acromion and glenoid), and humeral head

• Detailed examination of the humerus, including its shaft, proximal features, and anatomical landmarks

• Visual aids highlighting relevant bony structures for precise positioning

📸 Radiographic Techniques for the Shoulder and Humerus

• Standard projections: AP shoulder, lateral (internal and external rotation), scapular Y view, and humerus views (AP, lateral)

• Step-by-step guidance on patient positioning, centring points, and beam angulation

• Tips for achieving clear, diagnostic images and reducing common positioning errors

🎯 Optimizing Radiographic Quality

• Practical tips for selecting exposure factors and ensuring correct positioning

• How to assess image quality and identify positioning flaws for improved diagnostic outcomes

• Clinical indications for each projection and how to adapt for specific cases

💡 Ideal For:

• Radiography students studying upper limb imaging techniques

• Educators teaching shoulder and humerus radiography

• Radiographers looking to refine their imaging skills and technique
