Mnemonic:
- Larger the alphabets, larger the diameter (V>F>B)
- Diameters with “sub” prefix are smaller than counterpart without it.
Mnemonic: MTP (Medical Termination of Pregnancy) in increasing order.
Definition Mubarak and Hargens (1981) defined compartment syndrome as an elevation of the interstitial pressure in a closed osseofascial compartment that results in microvascular compromise. Pathophysiology Tissue perfusion = Capillary perfusion pressure – Interstitial fluid pressure 3 major theories for microvascular dysfunction and ischemia: Tissue survival: Vicious cycle of compartment…
Shoulder X-ray views AP Shoulder: in plane of thorax AP in plane of scapula: Angled 45 degrees lateral Scapular Y lateral: Erect with opposite shoulder rotated 40 degrees out and beam centered on spine of scapula (shoulder dislocations and scapula fractures) Supraspinatus outlet view: Scapular Y view with beam caudally…
Median nerve, Ulnar nerve and Radial nerve are the 3 major nerves of the upper limb originating from the brachial plexus. Some important neuroanatomic relationships in the forearm are: 1. Medial nerve: Crossed by brachial artery from lateral to medial just above the elbow to lie medial to brachial artery…
Very useful information

submento is from the side of the chin to vertex.so that is why it is smaller than mento vertical.
Pic is informative, could have been more clear graphically
