Head (Q 274)

QuestionAnswer
A tech will see the petrous pyramids lying in the ______________ during a PA axial, caldwell method lower third of the orbits
What line is perp. to the IR for a PA skull? What angulation of the cr? -OML -0 angulation of cr
For a SMV of the skull where should the CR enter and at what angle? -sella turcica -0 degrees (perpendicular to IR)
During an SMV of the skull, the MSP through the throat passes how far anterior to the EAM? 0.75inch (2 cm)
what anatomical feature is visible and symmetrical in a diagnostic sSMV of the skull? mandibular condyles (gonions)
when perofrming a perietoacanthial waters of the facial bones, what is the proper distance between the tip of the nose and the board? 0.75 inh (2 cm)
in a lateral nasal bone, where is the cr? 0.5 inch inferior to nasion
how many paranasal sinus groups should be demonstrated on a lateral projection of the sinuses? 4
in a parietoacanthial waters of the sinus, the petrous ridges appear just inferior to the: Maxillary sinuses
during any SMV projection what line is parallel to the IR? IOML
what two sinuses are visualized in an SMV of the sinus? -spehnoid -ethmoid
in the SMV sinus, what anatomical structure is superimposed by the anterior frontal bone? mental protuberance
What two sinuses are demonstrated in the waters open mouth of the sinuses? -sphenoid sinus -maxillary sinus
the hard palate is formed by what two bones? -maxillary bone -palatine bone
in the PA axial projection of the sinuses what line forms a 15 deg angle with the horizontal beam? OML
CR angulation should not be used in what type of head projections? Sinus
What sinuses are seen in the PA axial of the sinuses? (OML 15 deg from horizontal beam) -frontal -ethmoid
to demonstrate the mandibular body in the PA position, the CR is: Perpendicular to the IR
the OML and IOML are seperated by about __ degrees 7 degrees
the OML and GML are seperated by about ___ degrees 8 degrees
The GML and IOML are seperatd by __ degrees 15 degrees
the structures forming the brain stem include: -medulla oblongata -pons -midbrain
when modifying the PA axial projection of the skull, to demonstrate the superior orbital fissure the CR is directed: - 25 - 30 caudad
when modifying the PA axial projection of the skull, to demonstrate the inferior orbital fissure the CR is directed: 20 - 25 cephalad
when modifying the PA axial projection of the skull, to demonstrate the rotundum foramina the CR is directed: 25 - 35 caudad
what are the three foramina in the greater wing of the sphenoid? -rotundum -ovale -spinosum
structures involved in a blow out fracture include: -inferiror rectus muscle -orbital floor
blowout fractures in the orbital floor are well demonstrated in what view? -modidfied waters
in the modified waters, the OML is ___ to the IR and LML is ___ to the IR - OML is 55 degrees to IR -LML is perpendicular to IR
The ___________ projection is the single best position to demonstrate facil bones parietoacanthial ( waters)
what skull position will demonstrate the cranial base, sphenoidal sinuses, atlas, and odontoid process ? SMV
__ or ___ projections are used frequently to demonstrate the occipital region or evaluate the sellar region AP or PA
With the patient in the PA position and the OML and CR perpendicular to the IR, this will demonstrate the petrous pyramids where? completely within the orbits
the full length of the nasal septum is best demonstrated in the : Parietoacanthial (waters) projection
Inflamation of the tongue is called: Glossitis
inflamation of the parotid gland Parotitis
with an adult in the PA position and the OML perpendicular to the IR, a ___ to ___ degree caudal angle places the petrous ridges in the lower third of the orbit 15 to 20
with an adult in the PA position and the OML perpendicular to the IR, a ___ to ___ degree caudal angle places the petrous ridges in the lower third of the orbit. To see the same with a CHILD, what must be done ? 15 to 20 - with a CHILD the CR is perpendicular(no angle) to the nation ,
in the AP towne method, the dorsum sella and posterior clinoid processes should be visualized where? Within the foramen magnum
The frontal bone is best shown in what view? PA 0 deg
basal foramina is well shown in the : SMV
what is different about a PA axial SINUS? the OML is elevated 15 degrees from horizontal beam
the frontal and ethmoid sinuses are well shown in what? PA axial caldwell
the sphenoid sinuses are well shown in: SMV
Maxiallary sinuses are best shown in parietiacanthial waters
elongation occurs as a result of x ray tube angulation
Foreshortening occurs as a result of body parts being at an angle wit the IR
the auditory or eustachian tube extends from the nasopharynx to the middle ear
if the patient is unable to stay erect for a paranasal sinus exam, what alternative should be done ? Lateral cross table Because CR must be parallel to floor for air-fluid levels
what angulation is required for AP axial L5-S!? males and females -Males: 30 ceph -Females: 35 ceph
In the waters projection where is the petrous pyramids compared to the mxillary sinuses? Below the maillary sinuses
What part of the mandible will be best visualized with a PA 20 - 25 cephalic angle? Rami
the ___________ method is a frog leg lateral of the hip Modified cleaves
the _______ method is a PA axial oblique of the acetabulum teufel
Views to obtain the difficult zygomatic arches include the: -SMV -inferosuperior oblique projection because both require the patienst to hyper extend their necks and this projects the zygomatic arches free of superimposition
For visualization of both the sacrum and coccyx in the lateral projection, the CR is directed _______ inches posterior and at the level of ______ -3 - 4 inches - ASIS
