Jul 26, 2024 · The horizontal beam lateral hip radiograph or shoot through hip is in the purest terms the orthogonal view of the neck of the femur to the AP projection 1.

Plain radiographic examination is a fundamental approach to the diagnosis and treatment decision-making of the hip. A thorough understanding of standard radiographic techniques, radiographic anatomy, and disease patterns affecting the hip can be helpful in improving diagnostic accuracy.

Apr 1, 2006 · We aimed to compare lower extremity landing kinematics and isometric hip strength between individuals with and without CAI and examine associations between hip ...

Mar 23, 2023 · The lateral hip view is a radiographic projection assessing the relationship of the femoral head to the acetabulum. This view assesses the hip joint for any potential fractures, dislocations, bone lesions or degenerative diseases (i.e. suspected osteoarthritis of the hip) in an orthogonal plane to the AP projection.

Aim: To investigate the optimum technique for the horizontal beam lateral (HBL) hip projection considering image quality and radiation dose. Methods: Using digital radiography equipment an anthropomorphic phantom was positioned for a HBL projection of the hip.

Jul 29, 2015 · For DR HBL projections of the hip the following radiographic technique should be considered; 90 kV, 135 cm SID, 45 cm ODD, a grid and the introduction of 0.1 mm Cu. This can deliver an approximate 80% dose reduction, whilst maintaining an …

Jun 21, 2024 · Using image examples of lateral hip positioning for HBL 5 and CN 8 projections, students provided feedback on how they perceived patient dignity during positioning.

The majority of patients requiring a HBL projection of the hip present on a trolley through the A&E department. The technique and results presented within this article are for patients on a...

Jul 26, 2024 · HBL hip The horizontal beam lateral hip radiograph or shoot through hip is in the purest terms the orthogonal view of the neck of the femur to the AP projection 1. On this page: ... An oblique lateral hip is helpful for visualisation of the articular surfaces of the femoral head, ...

Introduction: The horizontal beam lateral (HBL) position technique for X-ray imaging has been used for nearly a century; however, this can be challenging for the patient and the practitioner, as it potentially compromises patient dignity. This study explores student radiographers' knowledge and experience of lateral hip positions and their ...
