Which portion of the rib is elongated for AP oblique right rib?
AP oblique rib positioning will demonstrate elongation of the dependent axillary ribs, and will also demonstrate the vertebral ends of the ribs on the side up.
Which position will best demonstrate the axillary portion of the right ribs?
bony thorax-sternum and ribs.
What is the axillary portion of ribs?
The apex is also referred to as the axillary inlet. The borders of the apex are made by the lateral surface of the first rib, the posterior surface of the clavicle, and the superior margin of the scapula.
What is the right anterior oblique view?
In conventional radiography, the right anterior oblique view is employed to ob- tain a "profile" view of the right ventricle and the main pulmonary artery. It is not surprising, therefore, that this pro- jection should provide unobstructed visual- ization of the infundibulum of the right ventricle.
