CHB Radiography vs Anatomical Imaging: Real Case Comparisons
🧠 Case Example 1: Post–Shoulder Reduction Imaging — Anatomical vs CHB Approach
What is your typical post–shoulder reduction X-ray series?
(Think about what views you routinely perform and why.)
Here is a typical anatomical imaging approach:
AP and Lateral Shoulder Views
Can you confidently identify any complications or associated injuries from these views?
🧠 Case Example 2 : Wrist Trauma — Anatomical Views vs CHB Radiography
What’s your standard trauma wrist series in ED?
Typically, radiographers perform AP Oblique and Lateral views. but are these truly sufficient for every case?
Let’s examine a post-cast distal radius fracture wrist series below.
Here are standard anatomical wrist views (AP, Oblique and Lateral):
From these views, can you confidently assess one of the most common complications following a distal radius fracture?
🎥 Inside CHB Radiography: Radial Head View Demonstration
The CHB Radiography Course goes beyond only using X-ray case studies in its teaching. It incorporates interactive skeleton demonstrations to explain the “why” behind key radiographic decisions and positioning techniques.
In this video, we examine the radial head view — highlighting why the palm-down positioning is diagnostically superior compared to the more commonly used thumb-up approach.
