C & T Spine Checkoff
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| All seven cervical vertebrae and at least one-third of T1 is essential image criteria for a __________ X-Ray | Lateral C-Spine |
| Lateral C-Spine Image Criteria | • Mandibular rami are not overlapping the atlas or axis • Intervertebral disk spaces are open • Superimposed zygapophyseal joints |
| Lateral C-Spine shows the _______ in profile | Spinous Processes |
| AP Axial C-Spine demonstrates____________ due to the angle of the CR | Open intervertebral disk spaces |
| AP Axial C-Spine Image Criteria | • Spinous processes equidistant to the pedicles and aligned with the midline of the cervical bodies • Mandibular angles and mastoid processes equidistant to the vertebrae • Mandible and occipital bone superimposed over the atlas and most of the axis |
| 72 - 60 inch SID is recommended for a___________ X-Ray | AP Axial Oblique C-Spine |
| The "Adam's Apple" is the | Thyroid Cartilage |
| What will we see with an appropriate 45-degree rotation of body and neck for a AP Axial Oblique C-Spine X-Ray? | • Open intervertebral foramina farthest from the IR, from C2–C3 to C7–T1 • Uniform size and contour of the foramina |
| What will we see with an Appropriately elevated chin for a AP Axial Oblique C-Spine X-Ray? | • Mandible not overlapping the atlas and axis • Occipital bone not overlapping the atlas and axis |
| Mark the side ______ from the board for a AP Axial Oblique C-Spine | Away |
| What are the exposure instruction for AP C1-C2, Open Mouth X-Ray? | Open mouth and say "AHHH" |
| Occlusal surface of upper incisors and mastoid tip are __________ when positioning for a AP C1-C2, Open Mouth X-Ray? | Perpendicular to IR |
| AP C1-C2, Open Mouth X-Ray must include? | • The dens, atlas, axis, and articulations between the first and second cervical vertebrae • Entire articular surfaces of the atlas and axis (to check for lateral displacement) • Mouth open wide |
| If the upper incisors are projected over the dens, the neck is | Flexed too much toward the chest |
| If the base of the skull is projected over the dens, the neck is | Extended too much |
| AP C1-C2, Open Mouth Image Criteria | • Superimposed occlusal plane of the upper central incisors and the base of the skull, demonstrating proper neck flexion • Shadow of the tongue not projected over the atlas and axis • Mandibular rami equidistant from the dens |
| Halfway between jugular notch and xiphoid process is approximately | Nipple Line |
| AP T-Spine Image Criteria | • Includes: All 12 thoracic vertebrae • No rotation as demonstrated by spinous processes at the midline of the vertebral bodies • Vertebral column aligned to the middle of the image |
| What are you evaluating with a AP Axial X-Ray? | Intervertebral disk space |
| What are you evaluating with a AP Axial Oblique X-Ray? | Intervertebral Foramen |
| What are you evaluating with a Open Mouth X-Ray? | C1 and C2 |
| What are you evaluating with a AP T-Spine X-Ray? | Intervertebral disk space |
| What are you evaluating with a Lateral T-Spine X-Ray? | Intervertebral Foramen |
| What are you evaluating with a Lateral C-Spine X-Ray? | Zygapophyseal Joints |
