Radiological
Anatomy
15. Computed to- uses x-rays, invented in 1970s x-rays pass through body in thin cross-sections.
mography (CT) Computer puts images of the cross-sections together to give 3D image
16. Ultrasound uses sound waves which get reflected/scattered when the the wave hits some-
thing-analyzed by computer to generate 2D or 3D image
17. Magnetic Reso- uses magnets
nance Imaging
(MRI)
18. Positron emis- uses radioactive labeled substance
sion tomography
(PET)
19. Anatomic Posi- subject is:
tion standing erect
facing forward
upper limbs hanging to the sides
palms face forward
20. Supine subject is laying on their back face upward
21. Prone subject is on their belly downward
