You do not meed to include the wrist bones on a PA hand projection | False |
The carpal located on the most lateral side, distal end of the wrist is the ____. | Trapezium (Greater multangular) |
What bone is the focus of the PA ulnar deviation projection of the wrist? | Scaphoid (navicular) |
The hand should be made into a loose fist for what projection? | PA wrist |
A ___ degree tube angle is needed for the Gaynor-Hart tangential projection of the Carpal Aanal. | 25-30 |
Which of the following positions would best demonstate the navicular in a radiographic examination of the wrist? | PA Ulna flexion |
What is the proper position for an AP forearm projection. | Hand supinated |
In performining a routine examination of the forearm, which of the following must be done to insure a desirable AP (anteroposterior) projection? | Hand must be supinated |
To insure a good AP elbow projection | Have the humerus in the same plane as the forearm |
Which structure is located on the medial side of an AP elbow projection? | Trochlea |
Which projection would show the radial head free of superimposition? | Lateral oblique elbow |
Which projection would show the coronoid process free of superimposition? | Medial oblique elbow |
The lateral elbow position is a mediolateral projection. | False |
