Quick reference
| Question | What to expect |
|---|---|
| Which projections are confirmed? | AP abducted, PA tangential, and apical shoulder views. |
| Can users try other projections? | Yes. These are confirmed examples. Other projections may be possible when the simulated setup supports them. |
| What anatomy is included? | Humerus, scapula, clavicle, partial ribs 1-6, upper thoracic spine, and lower cervical spine. |
| What setup is used? | Wall bucky workflow. |
| What movement is included? | Shoulder internal and external rotation, patient axial rotation, anteroposterior adjustment, and mediolateral adjustment. |
| What bone variations exist? | Healthy bone version and proximal humerus fracture version. |
| Known limitation | Active scapular movement through arm extension or flexion is not included. |

Imaging capabilities
| Capability | Details |
|---|---|
| Radiographic tube | Full range of motion, including vertical, horizontal, tilt, and rotation. The cassette can be rotated, and collimation size is adjustable. |
| Detector methods | The tube locks and detents to the wall bucky, enabling standard bucky tray operation. |
| Simulated exposures | Confirmed support for AP abducted, PA tangential, and apical views. Additional views may be possible depending on joint mobility and available bones. |
