What are the proper patient instructions for the transthoracic lateral projection of the shoulder?

∙ 10y ago
An upright position and the centering of the shoulder joint to the mid line grid are the beginning steps for the trans thoracic lateral projection of the shoulder. Positioning the arm in an internal, external, and neutral position is important as well. The final step is that the central ray should be perpendicular to the coracoid process.

Is the acromial body region inferior to the thoracic region?
No, the acromial region (shoulder) is lateral to the thoracic region (chest).
When explaining lateral and medial position what direction must the body be in?
Any explanation always starts with the body in anatomical position. The hands/forearms are supine (palm facing up like you're holding a cup of soup). This would make the pinky (and ulnar bone) medial with the thumb (and radius bone) lateral. At the elbow joint there is a lateral and medial epicondyle (a projection of the humerus where the forearm extensor and flexor muscles attach respectively). For lateral and medial positions this only really affects the forearm/hand since everything else is straightforward.
