2023年3月23日 · This view is clinically indicated for trauma, chronic discomfort or infection of the elbow joint. It aids in visualizing fractures and/or dislocations of the elbow joint, in addition to osteomyelitis and arthritic changes.

2024年6月21日 · The elbow series is a set of radiographs taken to investigate elbow joint pathology, often in the context of trauma. It usually comprises an AP and lateral projection, although other non-standard, modified projections are utilized for specific indications.

2024年7月21日 · The elbow acute flexion AP views are modified elbow AP projections for patients who cannot straighten their arm for examination. It is comprised of two views demonstrating the distal humerus and proximal forearm structures without distortion.

2011年12月27日 · X-ray of the Elbow AP AP projection is the routine position of the forearm, unlike PA view the bones of in forearm (radius and ulna) crosses over, resulting in an oblique view of the elbow. Lateral epicondyle, Capitulum, Radial head, Radial neck, Radial tuberosity, Medial epicondyle, Trachlea and Proximal ulna are demonstrated on the radiograph.

2016年6月20日 · Standard radiographic examination of the elbow includes anteroposterior (AP) and lateral views (Fig. 9.1). The AP view should be obtained with the elbow fully extended, the forearm fully supinated (if possible), and the fingers slightly flexed. The central beam is directed perpendicular to the elbow joint.

A routine radiographic evaluation of the elbow includes an anteroposterior (AP) and true lateral view. For the AP view the elbow should be fully extended with the forearm supinated, allowing optimal visualization of the medial and lateral epicondyles, radiocapitellar joint, and estimation of the carrying angle [Figure 1].

2023年12月11日 · The AP Elbow X-ray captures a frontal view, offering a comprehensive look at the elbow’s intricate anatomy. This includes the humerus, ulna, radius, and associated joints, crucial for detecting fractures, dislocations, and degenerative changes.

2024年1月1日 · The AP Elbow X-ray provides a frontal view, a panoramic lens into the intricate anatomy encompassing the humerus, ulna, radius, and associated joints. This vantage point proves indispensable...

2024年7月15日 · Anteroposterior (AP) and lateral radiographs remain the workhorses of elbow imaging. The AP view (Fig. 48-1A) demonstrates the distal humeral articular surface, medial and lateral epicondyles, radial head and neck, and most of the proximal ulna, excluding clear views of the coronoid and olecranon processes. The

An awareness of normal X-ray appearances of the elbow is essential for the identification of elbow injuries. Elbow injuries often have characteristic radiological appearances, which may only be detected by the presence of soft tissue abnormalities.
