Extremities
Overall view of Extremities per corectec
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| commonly called "skin cancer"? | Squamous cell carcinoma |
| CR directed to the long axis of the patella. With the patient prone and the knee flexed, the patella would be perpendicular to the table top. The CR would go down the long axis of the patella, the result would be an axial view. | Settegast |
| lateral cuneiform articulates with which of the following bones of the foot? | The lateral (3rd) cuneiform articulates with the 3rd metatarsal, the intermediate (2nd) cuneiform with the 2nd metatarsal and the medial (1st) with the 1st metatarsal. The cuboid lies laterally and the navicular posteriorly. |
| the space between the two condyles of the femur actually looks like a tunnel. The tunnel view can be obtained by three different methods | Camp Coventry, Holmblad, and AP axial |
| Where should the central ray enter for a lateral projection of the 1st toe? | Interphalangeal joint |
| Which of the tarsal bones articulates with the talus anteriorly | Navicular |
| When a bone is splintered or crushed into many pieces it is what type of fracture? | Comminuted |
| What is the most proximal end of the fibula called | Apex |
| What is the rounded projection on the anterior, proximal surface of the tibia called? | Tibial tuberosity |
| What is the name of the process that extends anteriorly from the scapula? | Coracoid process |
| For the frog-leg position of a unilateral hip, where is the central ray directed? | Perpendicular to the femoral neck |
| The medial cuneiform articulates with which of the following? | First metatarsal |
| What is the rounded process on the proximal, medial aspect of the femur called? | Lesser trochanter |
| Which of the malleoli is part of the distal tibia? | Medial |
| Fractures is caused by a diseased bone | Pathological fracture |
| Where should the central ray enter for a medial oblique position of the 3rd toe? | 3rd metatarsophalangeal joint` |
| Another name for the translateral hip projection? (3) | 1)Cross-table lateral 2)O.R. lateral 3)Inferosuperior projection |
| When one bone segment is driven into another it is known as what type of fracture? | Impacted |
| What is a primary bone malignancy | Osteogenic sarcoma |
| An infection of the bone is referred to as what? | Osteomyelitis |
| What is the name of the radiographic procedure where contrast medium is injected into the veins of the leg? | Venography |
| What is the name of the concave, articular surface of the proximal tibia? | Tibial plateau |
| Which of the following bones articulates with the bases of the metatarsals? | Tarsals |
| How many interphalangeal joints are in the third digit? | 2 |
| When the patient is in a Cleaves position (frog), how are the patient's thighs positioned? | Abducted |
| For an oblique position of a foot, how many degrees should the foot be rotated? | 30 degrees |
| What is another name for an AP projection of the foot? | Dorsoplantar projection |
| What is the area called that separates the medial and lateral femoral condyles posteriorly? | Intercondyloid fossa |
| Which of the following serves to fasten muscles to bones? | Tendons |
| Which anatomical landmarks are used to locate the neck of the femur? | An imaginary line drawn between the symphysis and the A.S.I.S. (anterior superior iliac spine) goes directly through the hip joint. A point 2" perpendicular and inferior to that line is where the neck of the femur is located. |
| The bicipital groove is also known as | the intertubercular groove. |
| what is necessary to demonstrate the intercondyloid fossa? | CR perpendicular to the lower leg (which is flexed 40-50 degrees) and directed through the knee joint |
| Where is the scapular notch located? | Superior to the scapular spine |
| What is the most proximal end of the ulna called? | Olecranon process |
| What anatomical structures are referred to as the "knuckles"? | Metacarpophalangeal joints |
| For a routine, lateral position of the wrist, which surface is nearest the image receptor? X A. Medial | Medial |
| positions/projections would best demonstrate the coronoid process of the ulna? | 45 degree internal oblique |
| Position/projection would best demonstrate the Trochlea on Humerus | 45 Degree internal oblique |
| Position/projection would best demonstrate the medial epicondyle | 45 degree internal oblique |
| Position/projection would best demonstrate the capitulum | 45 degree external oblique |
| Position/projection would best demonstrate the radial head, neck, & tubercle | 45 degree external oblique |
| When radiographing the 2nd digit in the lateral position, which part of the digit is closest to the image receptor? | Lateral |
| Where does the trochlea lie in comparison to the capitulum? | Medial |
| The actual wrist joint is made up of which bones? | Radius, scaphoid and lunate |
| The trapezium articulates with which of the following? | 1st metacarpal |
| What angle joins the medial and lateral border of the scapula? | Inferior angle |
| Which of the following bones is in the proximal row of carpals? | Triquetrum |
| Which of the following is a benign bone tumor? | Osteoma |
| What separates the head of the humerus from the body (shaft) of the humerus? | Anatomical neck |
| What is NOT well demonstrated on an AP projection of the elbow? | Olecranon process |
