This document outlines CT protocols for assessing the chest wall, sternum, clavicle, SC joints, axilla, and ribs in the context of musculoskeletal radiology. Indications for imaging include trauma, mass, or infection. The field of view should highlight any abnormalities if present. Additionally, sagittal and coronal reformats should be angled to focus on the sternum for optimal visualization. This protocol serves as a guide for radiologists and technicians when performing CT scans in such cases, ensuring standardized imaging techniques and reporting.
