thank you for adding... i work in pedatrics which means we never have to do a scapular y view. but then I got a second job with adults and man thats all i do now, so thanks for the brush up. hard to find how to fix positions online.

Excuse me sir, as phenominal as this explanation was, you made a slight error on your terminology of the position. What you are describing as the Shoulder Y, is in fact called the Lateral Projection of the Scapula. After consulting my Merrills Atlas on Radiographic Positioning and Procedures 12th Editon it was made clear that the TRUE shoulder Y would show superimposition of the scapular body and the humerus.

Thanks for explaining, I could never figure out if I was over or under rotation

When I do This Position almost always the coracoid process is superimposed onto the ribs .. How can i prevent this?

That internally rotated picture is so over exposed, its hard to tell where the borders are.

This is a lateral scapula , not a shoulder Y...

@SugerSprinkledFun 8 жыл бұрын

+tyler gates They are the same thing. The Y view is just another name for the lateral shoulder view. Many views have multiple names. This is called the Y view because of the Y shape that the coracoid and acromion make.

@tylergates4075 8 жыл бұрын

I disagree. This is a scapular Y, for the scapula. A shoulder Y superimposes the humerus and scapula.

+tyler gates the humerus can be doing all sorts of things. The affected arm can be hanging at the elbow in a sling position. Flexed at the elbow with the back of the hand against the vertebrae, the hand grasping opposite shoulder or the arm can the extended above the head. In other words it doesn't matter what the arm is doing it has to do with the centering point of the beam which has to exit at the glenohumeral joint of the shoulder and enter mid medial scapular border of the scapula. I am in a radiography program at the moment btw. This view is actually called the Transscapular Shoulder also known as the Scapuar Y and the Lateral Scapula. The one picture you saw just happened to show the humerus SI the scapula.

+tyler gates This depends on which textbook you are using... I consulted Merill's before posting this, which states for the "PA Oblique Shoulder, arm position is not critical". The view is normally used to rule out dislocation (anterior or posterior) and project the humeral head directly superimposing the junction of the Y (coracoid and acromion). This particular example just so happens to have the humerus free of superimposition of the scapular body, which is a primary criteria for the "Scapular Y-View" in the Merill's positioning book. This view could be used for both, however if the humerus were superimposed over the body of the scapula, it would qualify as a good Y-view for the shoulder, and NOT a good view of the scapula.
