Explanation:
Impossible to determine from this XRay term. There are basically two possibilities

a) anterior / posterior / suppination
b) anterior / pronation / suppination

Pronation / suppinatiom is the clinical term for 'bent outward' or 'bent inward'.

I honestly don't know what applies here. Version a appears to be more commonly used.

Hope it helps.
