1. Pelvic Girdle 1 st year 1 st quarter

2. Greater trochanter Lesser trochanter capitis

3. Pelvis Standard views: AP AP Axial (Taylor Method)

4. Structures shown: AP Pelvis The entire pelvis and head, neck, trochanters and the proximal third or fourth of the shaft of the femurs.

5. Good Film: The entire pelvis should be included along with the proximal femurs. The lesser trochanters (if seen) on the medial border of the femurs. The femoral necks should be demonstrated (** need medial rotation of lower limbs) The greater trochanters should be fully demonstrated The femoral heads should be well demonstrated trough the underlying acetabula. Rotation: Look at the obturator foramen, crests, SI jnts and sacrum/coccyx. Is there equal distances from edge of film? The lower spine should be centered to the middle of the film.

12. Football injury avulsion of the inferior pubic ramus AP Pelvis

15. What do you see? AP Pelvis

17. Grid for leg length AP Upright Pelvis

18. Peds AP Pelvis: No diaper on!

19. AP Ortho Pelvis

20. Structures Shown: AP Axial “outlet” pelvic bones (Taylor Method) An inferosuperior projection of the pubic and ischial rami is presented, free of superimposition. Pubic and Ischial Rami

21. AP Axial Pelvic bones

22. Good Film The pubic and ischial bones will be magnified and superimposed over the sacrum and coccyx. (that is okay we are not looking there) Looking at the rami We use 30 degrees cephalad tube angle on all pts (male 20-35 female 30-45) Should have the pubic bone, hip jnts, and ischial tuberosity on the film Rotation: Look at the obturator foramen
