From the postero-anterior position, the hand and wrist are rotated 45 degrees externally and placed central over an image receptor. The hand should remain adducted in ulnar deviation.

The hand is supported in position, with a non-opaque pad placed under the thumb.

The forearm is immobilised using a sandbag.
