U.S. Air Force Airman 1st Class Jason Grosso, a diagnostic imaging technologist with the 35th Surgical Operations Squadron, captures a “Y-view” image of a patient’s shoulder using a semi-digital X-ray machine that turns radiation into light at Misawa Air Base, Japan, Jan. 27, 2016. The Y-view is a lateral standard X-ray of the shoulder joint and is typically used to diagnose and treat dislocations. This X-ray machine is a safer version of its predecessors, reducing the amount of radiation needed to produce a diagnostic image. Grosso hails from Bridgman, Michigan.
