Abstract:
The abduction lordotic view is a previously unreported radiographic technique for visualization of the clavicle. Use of this technique, a simple office procedure, combined with a standard anteroposterior view allows almost 90 degrees visualization of the clavicle. It is recommended particularly for the assessment of clavicular healing.
