MSK: Trauma

Diagnosis: Comminuted intertrochanteric fracture (Plain film, Radiograph)

There is a comminuted intratrochanteric fracture of the right hip with avulsion of the lesser and greater trochanters, superior migration, and moderate varus angulation. The crosstable lateral examination demonstrates mild posterior angulation.

MSK: Trauma

Diagnosis: Intraarticular corner fracture (Plain film, Radiograph)

There is a minimally displaced intraarticular oblique corner fracture of the fourth proximal phalanx head on the ulnar side. There is minimal associated soft tissue swelling. There is no other fracture or dislocation. No periosteal reaction or cortical thickening is present.

MSK: Trauma

Diagnosis: Acromioclavicular ligament tear (Plain film, Radiograph)

Images 1-3 demonstrate widening of the AC interval, compatible with AC ligament tear. Images 4-8 are comparison images obtained one year earlier, demonstrating mild widening of the AC interval, however noyt in such extend.

MSK: Trauma

Diagnosis: Posterior shoulder dislocation (Plain film, Radiograph)

Images 1-2 demonstrate an empty glenoid sign with the humeral head in malposition in relation to the glenoid. Images 3-5 are post reduction, demonstrating the humeral head in anatomic position with the glenoid.

Diagnosis: Fracture healing process (Plain film, Radiograph)

Seen is chronologic healing progress of a distal tibial and fibular fracture. Image 1 is at the time of fracture. Image 2 is 3 weeks later, image 3 is 6 weeks later, image 4 is 8 weeks later and image 5 is 15 weeks later. Nnote the progression of callus formation.
