Carpal Bones
Step 1: Obtain needed views
The standard radiographic examination of the wrist uses three or four views; a posteroanterior (PA), a lateral, a pronation oblique, and a supination oblique view. Ensure that you have at least three views of the wrist. In situations where a scaphoid fracture is suspected, a magnified view of the scaphoid with the wrist in ulnar deviation is taken as well.
