Awesome presentation, Mackenzee! I really like your case study. I always like hearing about the whole story of a patient, and I feel like your SAPHO case study did a good job of explaining both the diagnosis and treatment. Well done.
Thank you for your reply Julian! The case study had so much dense information in it it was difficult sifting through the key points. Knowing that you enjoyed my case study tells me I must had chosen the right main topics for my presentation. SAPHO is such a rare pathology! researching it had its challenges.
Hi Mackenzee,
I thought your presentation on your unilateral hip and trauma hip is very well explained. I liked how you explained how to obtain a lateral hip using the Modified Cleaves method and how you described what the difference was between a “unilateral” and “bilateral” view. You also had mentioned what kVp is–explained in detail the breathing instructions for “suspending on expiration”—and the differences between male and female pelvis which I thought was an excellent touch. Overall great presentation!
Hello Nikki Joy Pak!
Thank you so much for your comment. Yes, the word “unilateral” quite literally means “one-lateral side” and “bilateral” means two sides of something. I figured that most people understood that however, I wanted to make sure I explained it well enough for anyone who is not familiar with those terms could understand. The kilovoltage of the tube is an important concept and I felt like if I did not give a brief synopses of it there may be one person out there who would had been curios or confused.
Hello, Mackenzee! I really enjoyed your presentation. I thought it was very informative, especially with the way you picked apart the images and spoke of what needed to be included or redone. Nice job!
In the case study, you described the patient’s images very well and gave exact locations to where the calcifications were, comparing the right acetabulum and femoral head to the left side. You have even corrected the post op image of the patients bilateral hips and gave a reason as to why the patient was positioned the way that he was. I thought this was very impactful and educational since you also pointed out other areas of calcifications. The way you described SAPHO syndrome and correctly pronounced the entire name was amazing.
Are you able to take a lot of pelvis and hip x-rays at your clinicals? I feel as though I have done an average number where I am currently located at. Have you ever seen a hip replacement surgery as well? I have only seen one done but I do hope to see more done in the future. I believe that you would find it interesting! You have done a great job with your presentation, keep up with the good work!
Hello Marisela Trevino,
Thank you so much for watching my video and having so many wonderful questions! I tried my best pointing out pathologies within my presentation. I wanted to make sure individuals who are not familiar analyzing a radiographic image understood what a normal hip joint appeared as and one with lots of calcification. That is the reason why I compared both joint spaces and circled them for the audience. Yes I do take many images of pelvis x-rays at my clinical site. I have also seen a hip-replacement surgery before. It was really cool because the surgeon allowed me to walk up to the patient’s hip and see it up close. Thank you for your comment!
I really enjoyed viewing your presentation, it was very informative and included nice images. I really liked how you pointed out information with electronic post processing annotation, it made it easy to follow. The case study was interesting. Have you performed any hip imaging during your clinical rotation?
Hi Tammy!
Thank you for taking the time to view my presentation. I have performed many hip x-rays on a variety of patients including trauma, pediatric, geriatric and out patients.

I have only seen one done but I believe you would find it to be most interesting. Do you know the process of a surgical hip replacement? Are there other pathologies that heavily impact the pelvis and hip? Great job on your presentation!
