| Which tarsal bone is located on the medial side of the foot between the talus and the three cuneiforms? | Navicular |
| Which bone articulates medially with the cuboid? | Lateral cuneiform |
| Which bones comprise the midfoot? | Navicular, cuboid and cuneiforms |
| Which bone articulates with the superior surface of the Calcaneus? | Talus |

| Which bones articulate distally with the three cuneiforms? | Metatarsals |
| Which bones articulate with the metatarsals? | Cuneiform and the cuboid |
| Which cuneiform is the largest cuneiform? | Medial |
| Where in the foot are the cuneiforms located? | Between the navicular and the metatarsals |
| Which articulation is an ellipsoid- type joint? | Metatarsophalangeal |
| Which articulation of the foot is a gliding type joint? | Intertarsal |
| Which two tarsal bones articulate with each other by way of three facets? | Talus and Calcaneus |
| Which part of the talus articulates with the distal tibia? | Trochlea |
| Which type of joint is the ankle joint? | Hinge |
| Where is the medial malleolus located in the leg? | Distal tibia |
| Where is the lateral malleolus located in the leg? | Distal fibia |

| Where are the tibial plateaus located? | Proximal tibia |
| On which border of the tibia is the crest located? | Anterior |
| Which term refers to the sharp ridge on the anterior boarder of the tibia? | Crest |
| Which term refers to the prominent process of the anterior surface of the proximal tibia that is just inferior to the condyles? | Tuberosity |
| Which joint is formed by the articulation of the head of the fibula with the lateral condyle of the tibia? | Proximal tibiofibular |
| Which type of joint is the proximal tibiofibular joint? | Gliding |
| Which structure is located on the head of the fibula? | Apex |
| With which structure does the head of the fibula articulate? | Lateral tibial condyle |
| Which term refers to the inferior tip of the patella? | Apex |
| Which part ot the patella is the base? | Superior boarder |
| Where on the femur is the greater trochanter located? | Lateral and superior |

| How many degrees and in what direction should the central ray be directed for the AP axial projection of the toes? | 15 degrees cephalad toward the the heel. |
| How and toward what centering point should the central ray be directed for the AP oblique projection to demostrate all five toes? | perpendicular to the third metatarsophalangeal joint |
| how many degrees and in what direction should the foot be rotated for the AP oblique projection to best demostrate the great toe? | 30 to 45 degrees medially |
| What other projection term refers to the AP projection of the foot? | Dorsoplantar |
| How many degrees and in which direction should the center ray be directed for the AP axial projection of the foot? | 10 degrees cephalad (towards the heel) |
| Which projection of the foot best demostrates the cuboid and its articulations? | AP oblique (medial rotation) |
| How many degrees and in what direction should the foot be rotated for the AP oblique projection of the foot? | 30 degrees medially |
| What is the appropriate collimated field size for the AP projection of the foot? | 1 inch of all sides, including 1 inch beyond the calcaneus and distal tips of the toe |
| Where should the central ray be directed for the AP oblique projection of the foot? | to the base of the third metatarsal |
| Reguardless of the condition of the patient, which positioning maneuver should be performed to position the foot for the lateral projection? | Ensure that the plantar surface is perpendicular to the IR. |
| How should the center ray be directed to best demostrate the tarsometatarsal joint spaces of the midfoot for the AP projection of the foot? | 10 degrees posteriorly toward the heel |
