The vast majority of people believe that shoulder X-rays are a good way to determine what's causing shoulder pain. Stress, among other things, can make your shoulder muscles quite cranky. Many doctors also say that an X-ray is a good way to investigate shoulder pain. They might find things like medial acromial and lateral clavicular sclerosis.

Introduction. An X-ray of the shoulder is a frequently conducted examination and is mainly used for diagnosing a fracture. Some of the key topics are proximal humeral fracture, shoulder dislocation, Bankart lesion and osteoarthritis. KEY TOPICS/TERMS: Proximal humeral fracture. Shoulder dislocation. Hill-Sachs lesion.

Your shoulder joint can move in more directions than any other joint in your body. A normal shoulder X-ray will show the bones that make up this ball-and-socket joint: Humerus (upper arm bone). Scapula (shoulder blade), which connects to the humerus. Acromion (a piece of bone that projects off the scapula). Clavicle (collarbone), which connects.

The shoulder is passively abducted in the scapular plane to 90°. The examiner's other hand is placed over the patient's shoulder overlying the anterior acromion and greater tuberosity. The examiner passively internally and externally rotates the shoulder detecting the presence of palpable crepitus.

This projection is a true anterior-posterior (AP) view of the shoulder. The Grashey view involves angling the beam laterally or rotating the patient posteriorly(2). These adjustments remove the view of the overlap between the humerus and the glenoid. The removal allows better evaluation of joint congruity, humeral head subluxation, and the.

A normal shoulder x ray will demonstrate the bones of the shoulder to have expected normal appearance without breaks, bone lesions, or abnormal bone structure. The head of the humerus or upper arm will be positioned within the socket of the shoulder. The clavicle will be aligned with the acromion or upper edge of the shoulder blade (scapula).

Citation, DOI, disclosures and article data. The shoulder series is fundamentally composed of two orthogonal views of the glenohumeral joint including the entire scapula. The extension of the shoulder series depends on the radiography department protocols and the clinical indications for imaging.

Typical X-ray findings in posterior shoulder dislocation include: AP view: the glenohumeral joint will be widened and the humeral head will take on a classic "light bulb" appearance due to forced internal rotation of the humerus. Lateral view: the humeral head will lie posterior to the glenoid fossa. Figure 5.

Look for disruption or a buckle in the cortex or any fracture fragments. They should all be smooth. The clavicle is a good bone to start with - it is by far the most common paediatric shoulder injury. Midshaft fractures account for 80% of clavicle fractures. Make sure there are no distal or medial fractures as they can often be subtle.
