LRA 220 Final Review
Where should the central ray be directed for a lateral calcaneus radiograph ?
one inch distal to medial malleolus
Which projection is preferable for examining the fibular head of a fractured lower
limb ?
medial oblique knee
What CR angulation is required for the AP oblique projection of the foot ?
CR is perpendicular to the image receptor .
A radiographic appearance of a well - circumscribed lucency within bones
describes :
a bone cyst
The best method of evaluating injuries to the menisci and ligaments of the knee
joint involves :
a magnetic resonance imaging procedure.
Which projection and / or position of the foot is represented by this drawing of
the foot ?
AP projection, no rotation
Which of the labeled structures is the lateral condyle of the femur ?
B. Lateral condyle
This radiograph represents which of the following positions ?
Mediolateral projection of the knee but underrotated toward the IR
Which one of the labeled structures is the medial condyle of the femur ?
A . Medial Condyle
To decrease the angle between the anterior surface of the foot and anterior
surface of the lower leg is described as :
Dorsiflexion
How much central ray ( CR ) angulation ( if any ) should be used for an AP
projection of the toes ?
10 ° to 15 ° toward calcaneus
What routine series should be performed for a study of the second toe ?
AP , AP oblique with medial rotation , lateromedial projection
A lateral knee radiograph that is overrotated toward the image receptor can be
recognized by which of the following ?
The fibular head will appear less superimposed by the tibia than a true lateral .
A correctly positioned AP medial oblique foot projection frequently may also
demonstrate a fracture of the base of the fifth metatarsal if present . True or False
True
To properly visualize the joint spaces with the AP projection of the foot , the CR
must be :
perpendicular to the metatarsals
