-Guarantee passing score -66 Questions and Answers -format set of multiple-choice -Expert-Verified Explanation Question 1: The slightly constricted area directly below and lateral to the head of the humerus is the what?

Answer:

Anatomical neck

Question 2: The anatomical neck appears as a line between what two structures?

Answer:

Between the rounded head and the adjoining greater and lesser tubercles.

Question 3: AP clavicle. AEC? Respiration? Eval criteria?

Answer:

No AEC. Inhale and suspend resp to help elevate clavicles.Entire clavicle and joints, the mid clavicle is superimposed on superior scapular angle.Question 4: Long, curved process that extends laterally over the head of the humerus?

Answer:

acromion

Question 5: The acromion overhangs the shoulder joint ____.

Answer:

posteriorly Question 6: AP projection- internal rotation shoulder. pt position and eval criteria position?

Answer:

Internally rotate arm (pronate hand), epicondyles perpendicular to IR. Rotate body slightly to place shoulder in contact with IR.Full rot evident by lesser tubercle in profile on medal aspect. Outline of greater tub superimposed over the humeral head.

Question 7: Scapulohumeral joint movement type?

Answer:

Spheroidal/ball and socket. (flex/ext, ab/add, circumduction, medial/lateral rotation)

Question 8: Transthoracic lateral proj. trauma humerus.

Breathing?Part position?

Answer:

Orthostatic breathing with a min of 2 second exposure at 80-90 kV to blur ribs.Pt's affected arm in a neutral rot, dropped. Elevate opposite arm& shoulder to prevent superimposition.Thorax in true lat pos, or slight anterior rot of unaffected arm.

Question 9: Where is the surgical neck?

Answer:

tapered area below the head and tubercles.Question 10: Proximal humerus: AP is _____ rotation, lateral is ____ rotation.

Answer:

External, internal.

Question 11: Upper margin of the scapula is at the level of?

Answer:

The second posterior rib

Question 12: What is the function of the clavicle and scapula?

Answer:

To connect each upper limb to the trunk or axial skeleton.

Question 13: What is the grashey method?

Answer:

Posterior oblique position of shoulder - glenoid cavity Question 14: External rotation of the proximal humerus places the humerus in a what?

Answer:

True AP/frontal position Question 15: AP projection- external rotation shoulder. IR size? CR @? Eval criteria for anatomy?

Answer:

10x12.CR 1 inch inferior to coracoid process.Lateral 2/3rds of clavicle and upper scapula Question 16: For a scapular lateral "Y" view, which upper part is the coracoid process?

Answer:

In relation to the glenoid cavity, the more anterior process.

Question 17: lateral angle is aka what?

Answer:

head of the scapula Question 18: Humeral head articulates with glenoid cavity of the scapula to form what joint?

Answer:

scapulohumeral, glenohumeral, shoulder joint.

Question 19: Medial or sternal extremity end articulates with what?

Answer:

The manubrium, forming the sternoclavicular joint

Question 20: In the external rotation of humerus, where are the greater and lesser tubercles?

Answer:

Greater tubercle is seen laterally in profile, lesser is located more anteriorly- medial to the greater.Question 21: Where are the greater and lesser tubercles for an internal rotation?

Answer:

Greater is anterior and medial of the proximal humerus, lesser is seen in profile medially.

Question 22: Routine for humerus?

Answer:

AP, AP LAT rot, Trauma (if you can't do a lat rotation), Transthoracic (trauma) Question 23: Thickest part and ends laterally in a shallow depression called the glenoid cavity?

Answer:

Lateral angle Question 24: The lesser tubercle is directly below the _____ on the ____ surface.

Answer:

Anatomical neck, anterior surface.Question 25: Scapular Y Lateral- Anterior oblique position shoulder. Pt position?

Answer:

rotate into an anterior oblique facing IR. Palp superior angle of the scapula and AC joint, rotate Pt until an imaginary line between those two points is perp to IR (45-60 degree usually). May SLIGHTLY abduct arm to prevent superimposed humerus over ribs Question 26: Scapular Y Lateral- Anterior oblique position shoulder. Excellent projection to demonstrate what?

Answer:

Profile of coracoid process and scapular spine

Question 27: The head of the scapula is AKA?

Answer:

The lateral angle
