Greater Tuberosity Anatomy 3 – Longitudinal (Bony Profile)

  1. Greater Tuberosity
  2. Footprint of Infraspinatus/Supraspinatus (depending on where you are on the apex of the greater tuberosity). 
    • This view will appear as you move the transducer a bit more laterally/posterior, with the patient still in modified
    • Crass and the transducer still pointed perpendicular to the clavicle.

When you move more laterally, the greater tuberosity starts to flatten out and the inflection point also flattens somewhat.
