ABSTRACT
Positioning for antero-posterior humerus projection – patient’s arm in a sling. https://s3-euw1-ap-pe-df-pch-content-public-p.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/9781315382210/8ca82e7c-bd07-4171-b4f5-ebaded57b5b3/content/fig2_44a.jpg" xmlns:xlink="https://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"/>
The image receptor is placed in an erect holder.
The patient sits or stands with their back in contact with the image receptor.
The patient is rotated towards the affected side to bring the posterior aspect of the shoulder, upper arm and elbow in contact with the image receptor.
The position of the patient is adjusted to ensure that the medial and lateral epicondyles of the humerus are equidistant from the image receptor.
