| Why is an upright chest preferred to a supine chest? | In an upright chest the diaphragm will move to its lowest position |
| Why is an upright chest preferred to a supine chest? | In an upright chest air/fluid levels are better visualized |
| Which specific anatomy is better visualized with a fan lateral as compared with the other lateral projections of the hand? | Phalanges |
| Increasing collimation ________ image contrast and ________ receptor exposure | increases; decreases |
| A 23-year-old female comes to the ED for elbow pain. The doctor orders AP/lateral views of the elbow. There is no apparent fracture on either image, yet, the radiologist requested oblique views for fracture. What did the radiologist see? | The posterior fat pad and rounded, raised anterior fat pad |
| During a trauma AP elbow examination with partial flexion, a technologist places the entire forearm and elbow on the IR with the elbow centered. Which anatomical structures will be best demonstrated with minimal distortion on this image? | Proximal radius and ulna |
| Most metacarpophalangeal joints are | Synovial, ellipsoid |
| Which is correct regarding ulnar deviation of the wrist? | Demonstrates the lateral carpal bones |
| Select all that are true when positioning for a lateral wrist | The hand must often be slightly supinated to superimpose the radius and ulna |
| Select all that are true when positioning for a lateral wrist | The entire forearm must be in contact with the table |
| Select all that are true when positioning for a lateral wrist | The elbow must be bent 90° |

| An increase in which factor will improve spatial resolution? | SID |
| The purpose of an AP Lordotic Chest X-Ray is to? | Evaluate the apices of the lungs |
| Primary ossification occurs: | In the diaphysis before birth |
| A perforated ulcer causes air to accumulate between the visceral and parietal peritoneum. This air is located in the | Peritoneal cavity |
| A PA chest shows symmetric clavicles, well defined lung markings and diaphragm, but 7 posterior ribs visible. What is most likely the issue? | Exposure taken after suspended single inspiration |
| Superimposed posterior ribs on a lateral chest image indicate | Proper Positioning |
| What is the purpose of a PA Chest X-Ray? | Detect infections (pneumonia, tuberculosis), cardiovascular issues (enlarged heart, fluid), tumors, rib fractures, and monitor chronic conditions like COPD |
| PA Wrist | Trapezium and Trapezoid are superimposed |
| PA Oblique Wrist | Hamate and Triquetrum are superimposed |
| What X-Ray shows open radioulnar joint space? | PA Wrist |
| The Scaphoid and Lunate and are superimposed in a _________ X-Ray? | PA Oblique Wrist |
| The second layer of the pleural membrane is the ________ ________ and it covers the lungs themselves. | visceral (pulmonary) pleura |
| Select all that should be seen on a PA Oblique Wrist | Decreasing amounts of separation between metacarpal bodies two through five Open joints between the trapezium and trapezoid All anatomy from mid metacarpals to distal radius and ulna |
| Which projection clearly demonstrates the glenoid cavity? | AP oblique (Grashey) |
| Exposure for a chest x-ray should be taken on ________________ to ensure________________ | second suspended inspiration; full expansion of the lungs |
| If the kVp were decreased by 15% and no changes were made to the mAs | receptor exposure would decrease, and contrast would increase |
| The rough raised triangular elevation along the anterior surface of the proximal body of the humerus is the: | lesser tubercle |
| Which AP projection of the shoulder and proximal humerus is obtained by allowing the palm of the hand to face inward toward the thigh | Neutral Rotation |
| The most commonly performed oblique projection of the foot is the _____ oblique in _____. | 30 degree; medial rotation |
| Which of the following will ensure that the knee is in proper position for a lateral projection? | Epicondyles perpendicular to the IR Leg flexed 20 to 30 degrees Patella is perpendicular to image receptor |
| Which structure is located inferior and slightly medial to the acromioclavicular joint? | Coracoid Process |
| Which factors does NOT support an acceptable image of a lateral projection of the ankle? | Superimposed heads of metatarsals 1-4 |
| Which of the following routines should be performed for a study of the second toe? | AP, AP oblique with medial rotation, lateromedial projection |
| The two bony landmarks that are used for localization of the femoral neck are | ASIS and the symphysis pubis |
| What type of respiration should be employed during the exposure of the AP KUB projection? | Suspended Expiration |
| How can a radiographer determine if the tibia-fibula are in a true lateral position? | Femoral epicondyles are superimposed Patella is perpendicular to image receptor |
