    • Wrist movements / Quiz on Two handed casting

    Walter & Group...

    One more entry on describing wrist movements from Jim Gill, a radiologist:

    Just to let you know that although I may not contribute much I still find these group debates very interesting and helpful - from a radiological view (no pun intended) radial and ulna deviations tend to be more universal terms here in the UK. They provides better descriptions where radiographic techniques (projections) tend to differ.

    Regards, Jim Gill.
