ARRT practice exam - spine
Breathing method is used to gain whilst taking a lateral projection of the - ANS-thoracic
backbone
How many vertebrae are placed within the cervical region of the backbone? - ANS-7
How many vertebrae make up the thoracic backbone? - ANS-12
The affected person is positioned with the coronal plane of the body perpendicular to the IR, and
the arm closest to the IR raised over the head. The central ray is perpendicular and focused to
the level of the C7 to T1 interspace. What projection and anatomy can be established in the
photo - ANS-A lateral projection of the cervicothoracic region
What anatomic systems are fine validated through the PA oblique projections of the cervical
spine? - ANS-Intevertebral foramina in the direction of the IR
What anatomic structures of the cervical backbone are high-quality validated through the lateral
projection? - ANS-Zygapophyseal joints
What device may be used to improve visualization of the spinous procedures of the thoracic
spine at the lateral projection? - ANS-A piece of lead positioned at the back of the shadow of the
affected person's returned
What is the relevant ray perspective and direction for the AP axial projection of the sacrum? -
ANS-15 tiers cephalad
What is the wide variety of vertebrae inside the everyday lumbar spine? - ANS-five
What is the odontoid system and where is it located? - ANS-A toothlike projection on the
superior floor of C2
What is the right important ray attitude and direction for the AP oblique projections of the
cervical backbone? - ANS-15 stages cephalad
What is the proper affected person function for an AP indirect projection of the cervical
backbone? - ANS-a forty five-degree posterior oblique role
What is the reason for the use of a seventy two-inch SID for the lateral projection of the cervical
spine? - ANS-This SID enables to overcome the magnification as a result of the improved OID
of the placement
What part of the backbone is generally referred to as the tailbone? - ANS-Coccyx
What positioning maneuver is used to improve affected person comfort and decrease the
lordotic curve of the lumbar backbone whilst positioning a recumbent patient for an AP
projection of the lumbar spine? - ANS-Flexing the knees and the usage of a aid under them
What particular anatomy is satisfactory validated on the AP indirect projection of the lumbar
spine if the patient is positioned in a 45-diploma RPO position? - ANS-Right zygapophyseal
joints
When taking an AP axial projection of the cervical spine, the central ray is directed: - ANS-15
ranges cephalad
When using a 10" x 12" IR wherein should the primary ray input the affected person for an AP
projection of the lumbar spine - ANS-At 1.5 inches advanced to the iliac crest inside the midline
of the affected person
