Answer questions related to a Diagnostic Report LEFT WRIST - PA, oblique, and lateral views of the left wrist reveal a transverse fracture of the distal radius, just proximal to the epiphysis. The distal fragment is displaced and angulated posteriorly at approximately 15 degrees. The articular surface of the radius is not involved. There is soft tissue swelling adjacent to the fracture site, particularly on the dorsal aspect. No other abnormalities are noted. Impression: Colles fracture, left wrist Questions: 1. Which end of the radius was fractured? The end closest to the wrist or the end nearest the elbow? Which sentence tells you that? 2. Was the bone displaced backwards or forwards? 3. What is the articular surface of the radius? Define articular. 4. What is the dorsal aspect? 5. Define: a. PA view b. oblique view c. lateral view d epiphysis
