Hand position- PA Oblique projection, lateral rotation
Elbow 90 deg, arm fully supported. Hand is rotated laterally, then hand is rotated to a 45-degree angle with IR. Stair step sponge is used for support and to help maintain position. Central ray is perpendicular to the third metacarpel joint

carpels, 1-5 metacarpels, proximal phalanges, middle phalanges, and distal phalanges are visible in image.
Hand Xray image- PA Oblique projection, lateral rotation
Hand position- PA Oblique projection- Lateral roation
Elbow is 90 deg, arm fully supported.Used when not using the stair step sponge, from the lateral position, the hand forms a 45 deg angle with the IR. Central ray is perpendicular with the 3rd metacarpel joint.

Hand Position-Lateral- Ulnar and Fanned Fingers
Elbow is 90 deg, arm fully supported. Ulnar portion on arm is in contact with IR. Hand is in lateral position with fingers extended or can be supported on sponge and fanned. Wrist will be slightly pronated. Central Ray is perpendicular to second metacarpel joint.

Thumb Position- AP Projection
seated at end of table, arm abducted 90 deg, w/ forearm rotated internally into exaggerateed deg of pronation. Dorsal surface of the thumb is in contact with IR, coronal plane of thumb is paralell to IR, plane of palm is perp to IR. Central Ray is perpendicular to 1st metacarpel joint.

Xray Image – Thumb AP Projection
Thumb Position- PA Oblique Projection
elbow flexed 90 deg and arm fully supported. Palm of hand is in contact with IR. Coronal plane of thumb will be 45 deg (oblique) to the IR. Central Ray is perpendicular to the first metacarpel joint.

Xray Image- Thumb PA Oblique Projection
Thumb Position- Lateral Projection
Elbow flexed 90 deg, and arm is fully supported. With hand positioned for PA oblique thumb, patient flexes MCP joints 2-5 w/ fingers extened “tenting” hand until thumb is in lateral position. Central Ray is perpendicular to the first metacarpel joint.

Trapezium, 1st metacarpel, proximal phalanx, and distal phalanx are visible in image.
Xray Image- Thumb Lateral Projection
Thumb Alternative PA Position
If AP position is too painful for patient, this position can be used. Ulnar aspect of hand is in contact w/ IR and the palm of hand is perpendicular to IR. Thumb is supported by circle sponge, with coronal plane parallel to IR. Center ray is perpendicular to 1st metacarpel.
Thumb Alternative PA Position
Xray Image- Thumb alternative PA Position
xray not as clear as AP Projection, 1st metacarpel, proximal phalanx and distal phalanx are still visable.
Xray Image- Thumb alternative PA Position
Wrist position- PA Projection
elbow flexed 90 deg, forearm resting on table. Anterior surface of wrist is in contact w/ IR. Fingers are flexed to form a loose fist, placing wrist in firmer contact with IR and opening intercarpel joint. Centrl ray is perpendicular to metacarpel base area.
