title: Modified radial head--capitellum projection in elbow trauma.
abstract: A new technique is described for evaluating trauma to the elbow. The modified radial head--capitellum view is an alternative radiological projection to that described by Greenspan and Norman (the radial head--capitellum view). This new projection is useful in demonstrating minimally displaced or non-displaced fractures of the radial head, capitellum and coronoid process.
