RAD110 - CHAPTER 2

QuestionAnswer
sthenic average build
hyposthenic moderate, slender build
asthenic (extreme) slender, thin build with narrow frame
hypersthenic (extreme) broad, massive build
Bone functions attachment for muscles, mechanical basis for movement, protection of internal organs, support frame for body, storage for calcium/phosphorus/salts. production of red/white blood cells
axial skeleton supports and protects head and trunk
appendicular skeleton provides means for movement
compact bone strong, dense, outer layer
spongy bone inner, dense layer, contains spiculated network called trabeculae
trabeculae filled with red+yellow marrow
red marrow produces... red and white blood cells
yellow marrow stores... fat cells
medullary cavity central cavity of long bones, contains trabeculae filled with yellow marrow
red marrow found in... end of long bones
periosteum tough, fibrous tissue that covers bone, except at articular ends
endosteum lines marrow cavity
intramembraneous ossification forms flat bones
endochondral ossification forms short, irregular, and long bones
primary ossification (re: endochondral) begins before birth and forms long central shaft in long bones
secondary ossification (re: endochondral) occurs after birthday when separate bones begin to develop at both ends of long bones, the ends are called epiphys
long bone classification found only in limbs, consist of body and two articular ends (ex: femus, humerus)
short bone classification consist mainly of cancellous bone w/ thin outer layer of compact bone
flat bone classification consist of two plates and compact bones, ex: sternum, cranium
irregular bone classification peculiarly shaped, ex: verterbrae and facial bones
sesamoid bone classifcation very small, oval, develop inside+beside tendons, protect tendons from excess wear, largest is patella
synarthroses immovable joint
ampiarthroses slightly moveable joint
diarthroses freely moveable joint
fibrous joint classification do not have a cavity, united by fibrous tissue and connective ligaments
cartilaginous joint classification do not have joint cavity, virtually immovable
synovial joint classification permit wide range of motion, freely movable
gliding joint (re: synovial) simplest synovial joint, ex: intercarpal, intertarsal
hinge (re: synovial) permits flexion and extension only, ex: elbow and knee
pivot (re: synovial) allows rotation around a single axis
ellipsoid (re: synovial) allows flexion, extension, abduction, circumduction (ex: wrist)
saddle (re: synovial) similar to ellipsoid, difference is slope of articular surfaces
ball and socket permits wide range of motion, ex: hip and shoulder
projection the path of the CR as it exits the x ray tube passing through the patient to the IR, identified by entrance and exit points of body
view used to describe the body part as seen by the IR, exact opposite of projection
AP projection CR enters the anterior surface and exits the posterior
PA projection CR enters the posterior surface and exits the anterior
Lateral projection CR enters one side of body, passing transversely along coronal plane
oblique projection CR enters from side angle
axial projection longitudinal angle of CR is 10 degrees or more
tangential projection CR directed along outer margin of curved surface
recumbent position lying down in any position
trendenburg position supine with head lower than feet
fowler position supine with head elevated
Sims' position recumbent with patient laying on left anterior side with leg extended and right knee and thigh partially flexed
lithotomy position supine with knees and hips flexed and thighs abducted and rotated externally, supported with ankle supports
lateral position named according to side of the patient that is placed closer to IR
oblique postion body is rotated so the coronal plane is not parallel w/ the table or IR, named according to the side and surface of body closer to table or IR
decubitis recumbent position with horizontal CR
lordotic position upright position in which patient is leaning backward
evert outward turning of foot at ankle
pronate rotate forearm so palm is down
supinate rotate forearm so palm is up
circumduction circular movement of a limb
