"the patient's head is to be tilted away towards the unaffected side (and slightly forward if possible); check your collimation light to ensure the head will not be irradiated."
"The axial shoulder view is a supplementary projection to the lateral scapula view for obtaining orthogonal images to the AP shoulder. It is an appropriate projection to assess suspected dislocations, proximal humerus pathology, and glenohumeral articular surface abnormalities 1-3."
"The axial view provides additional information when assessing dislocations and glenohumeral instability; particularly if these are not seen well on a standard AP view 4. If the positioning is difficult to achieve, the inferior-superior axial view can be performed instead."
