Our _________ serves as a base for our trunk and a girdle for the attachment of our lower limbs. pelvis
The pelvis contains what four bones: two hip bones (innominate bones), and the sacrum, and coccyx
The pelvis is divided into 2 portions by a boundary line called the brim of the pelvis. Above the brim is called the: False (greater) pelvis
The pelvis is divided into 2 portions by a boundary line called the brim of the pelvis. Below the brim is called the: True (lesser) pelvis

For an AP Outlet view, the CR angle should be __________ degree for a male and _________ degree for a female. Males: Angle 20-35 cephalad Females: Angle 30-45 cephalad
For an AP Outlet view, the CR should be centered to: 1-2 inches distal to the upper border of the pubic symphysis
For an AP Inlet view, the CR should be ______ degrees _______. 40 degrees caudal
For an AP Inlet view, the CR should enter at the: midline at level of ASIS
For an AP Oblique Pelvis (Acetabulum): Judet Method: LPO & RPO, the patient should be positioned __________ degrees oblique. 45
In the Judet view, the posterior oblique position (LPO and RPO) demonstrates the __________ (downside/upside) acetabulum and more specifically the __________ (anterior/posterior) rim of the acetabulum. downside, anterior (ants go down in the ground)
In the Judet view, the anterior oblique position (LAO and RAO) demonstrates the __________ (downside/upside) acetabulum and more specifically the __________ (anterior/posterior) rim of the acetabulum. upside, posterior (posts go up)
If the anterior acetabulum is of interest in the Judet view, the CR should be directed: 2 inches distal and 2 inches medial to downside ASIS (ants go marching 2 by 2)
If the posterior acetabulum is of interest in the Judet view, the CR should be directed: 2 inches distal to upside ASIS
The hip bone consists of what 3 bones: Ilium, pubis, ischium (they are fused together to make up the acetabulum )
The acetabulum fuses during the middle _________ years. teenage
The Hip joint is a ____________ type of joint. Synovial (synovial fluid), Diarthrodial (freely moveable), Ball and socket
T/F: The obturator foramen is the largest foramen in the skeletal system. True
The pubic symphysis joint is classified as: Cartilaginous joint, Amphiarthrodial (limited movement)
SI Joints is classified as a: Synovial joint Amphiarhtrodial (little movement)
SI Joints go at a __________ degree angle from MSP. 25-30
For a unilateral AP hip, the CR should be centered: CR 1-2 medial & 3-4 inches distal to ASIS
For a unilateral AP hip, the leg should be rotated internally ___________ degrees. 15-20
The femoral neck can be found by going ______ inches medial to the ASIS and ______ inches distal. 1-2 inches medial from ASIS and 3-4 inches distal
In a unilateral Frog Leg radiograph, you should be able to visualize: the acetabulum, femoral head, and the femoral neck
For a x-table lateral hip (Danelius-Miller Method), the IR should be __________ (parallel/perpendicular) to the femoral neck, and the CR should be _________ (paralle/perpendicular) to the femoral neck and IR. parallel, perpendicular
For a Clements-Nakayama view, the grid is tilted ______ degrees from vertical and parallel with the femoral neck, and you should angle the CR mediolaterally, _______ degrees from horizontal and centered to femoral neck. 15, 15
When a patient has bilateral hip fractures or limitation of movement of the unaffected leg, the ______________ can be used to obtain a lateral view. Clements-Nakayama
The Female sacrum/coccyx curve more ____________ (anteriorly/posteriorly) than males. posteriorly
For AP Axial SI Joints, the CR should be centered: 2 inches below ASIS
For AP Axial SI Joints, a _______ degrees cephalad for males _______ degrees cephalad for females. 30 degrees cephalad for males, 35 degrees cephalad for females
For a posterior oblique SI joint (LPO or RPO), we are looking at the _____________ (upside/downside) SI joint. upside
For a posterior oblique SI joint (LPO or RPO), we should elevate side of interest ___________ degrees. 25-30
For a posterior oblique SI joint (LPO or RPO), the CR should enter: 1-inch medial to upside ASIS
For a anterior oblique SI joint (LAO or RAO), we are looking at the __________ (upside/downside) SI joint. downside, “eyes down, side down”
For a anterior oblique SI joint (LAO or RAO), we should rotate the side of interest to table _________ degrees. 25-30
For a anterior oblique SI joint (LAO or RAO), the CR should enter: 1-inch medial to the ASIS closest to the IR
The proximal femur consists of what four essential parts: the head, neck, the greater and the lesser trochanters
For an AP femur Mid/Proximal, we should rotate the femur ____________ degrees medially. 15-20
if we are doing a dedicated distal AP femur, we should rotate the leg internally about _________ degrees to open the knee joint more. 5
