SCENARIO 2: A patient, Mr. Horowitz, arrives to the radiology department from the emergency room with severe pain and a visual deformity to his left shoulder. A radiographic examinations of the shoulder is ordered to rule out dislocation. The examinations consists of Internal, External, and a Scapular-Y view positions. Mr. Horowitz is a sthenic patient who arrives on a stretcher but he is ambulatory.   SCENARIO 2: Where is the central ray directed for the AP projections of the shoulder?

SCENARIO 1: You realize the amount of movement that Mrs. Miller can achieve to perform the lateral projection of the humerus is extremely limited and it seems that Mrs. Miller can only leave her arm supinated at her side. Which position/projection would you do next?

SCENARIO 2: For the Scapular-Y of the shoulder, the the body is rotated so that the midcoronal plane is how many degrees from the image receptor?

SCENARIO 2: The radiograph for an AP projection with external rotation of the proximal humerus reveals that the greater and lesser tubercles are both superimposed by the humeral head and neither can be clearly visualized. What position is the current position of the patient and how should it be changed to improve this image for a repeat exposure?

SCENARIO 6: The  repeated  radiograph of the AP pelvis reveals that the lesser trochanters are not visualized.. What should the technologist do (if anything) to correct this on the repeat exposure?

SCENARIO 1: A patient, Mrs. Miller, arrives to the radiology department from the emergency room with an injury to the right humerus. A radiographic examination of the humerus is ordered. The examination consists of AP and Lateral positions. Mrs. Miller is a sthenic patient and she is in severe pain and cannot be placed erect for any images. You perform the examination after moving her to the examination table in the radiographic room.   .      SCENARIO 1: You assess the amount of movement that Mrs. Miller can achieve with her arm. How should the humeral epicondyles be placed for the AP projection of the humerus?

SCENARIO 5 Using the traditional hip localization method, the femoral head can be located:
