costal surface. - answer Costal surface

  1. What is the name of the large fossa found within the anterior surface of the scapula? Supraspinous fossa Infraspinous fossa Subscapular fossa Glenoid fossa - answer Subscapular fossa
  2. What is the name of the insertion point for the deltoid muscle located on the anterolateral surface of the humerus? Surgical neck Deltoid protuberance Deltoid tuberosity Intertubercular groove - answer Deltoid tuberosity T/F 7. All of the joints of the shoulder girdle are diarthrodial (freely movable) - answer True
  3. Which of the following joints is considered to have a spheroidal type of movement? Acromioclavicular joints Sternoclavicular joints Bicipital joint Scapulohumeral joint - answer Scapulohumeral joint
  4. Which view and projection of the proximal humerus is represented in the figure? External rotation, anteroposterior (AP) projection Neutral rotation, AP projection
  1. What medial central ray (CR) angle is required for the inferosuperior axial shoulder (Lawrence method)? 5° to 10° 40° to 45° 25° to 30° 10° to 15° - answer 25 to 30
  2. What additional maneuver must be added to the inferosuperior axial shoulder (Lawrence method) projection to best demonstrate a possible Hill-Sachs defect? Increase medial CR angulation. Angle the CR 10° to 15° downward or posteriorly in addition to the medial angle. Perform exaggerated external rotation of the affected upper limb. Increase abduction of the affected upper limb. - answer Perform exaggerated external rotation of the affected upper limb
  3. Where is the CR centered for a transthoracic lateral projection for proximal humerus? 1 inch (2.5 cm) inferior to the acromion Level of the greater tubercle Level of surgical neck Midaxilla - answer Level of the surgical neck
  4. A referring physician suspects that a subacromial spur may be the cause for a patient's arm numbness. She asks the technologist for a projection that would best demonstrate any possible spurs. Which of the following projections would accomplish this objective? PA scapular Y lateral with 10° to 15° caudal angle PA scapular Y lateral with 10° to 15° cephalad angle AP oblique shoulder with 45° caudal angle

AP shoulder with 10° to 15° caudal angle - answer PA scapular Y lateral with 10 to 15 degrees caudal angle T or F: Acronion process is most superior on Lawrence method radiograph. - answer True
