Fig. 1From: Three-dimensional alignment changes of the shoulder girdle between the supine and standing positionsComputed tomography scanning in the supine and standing positions. a CT scans of both shoulders of the volunteers are taken in the supine position using a conventional 320-detector row CT scanner. b CT scans are taken in the standing position using an upright CT scanner, which has a transverse 320 row-detector gantry. A support pole lightly supports the back of the volunteer, and up-and-down movements of the transverse gantry enable cross-sectional scanning in the standing positionBack to article page
