A posteroanterior view of the shoulder used for the evaluation of patients with previous anterior dislocation of the glenohumeral joint. The patient is standing, the dorsum of the hand on the affected side placed over the upper lumbar vertebrae with the thumb pointing upward. The central ray is directed at a 30° angle from the vertical, with the film held on the shoulder, parallel to the floor.

OBS

Hermodsson has also described an anteroposterior view of the shoulder with internal rotation of the humerus, but the term Hermodsson view usually refers to the tangential view.
