RAD 135 Exam 2
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Since the lateral border of the scapula is Closer to the ribs- | The patient is over rotated. Bring the affected shoulder away from the IR |
| How much CR angulation is used for an AP axial view of the clavicle | 15-30° |
| In a PA oblique Y-View Shoulder, the body is rotated | 40-60° , affected side toward the board |
| How many degrees is the body rotated for the AP oblique projection (Grashey method) of the shoulder joint? | 35 to 45° toward the affected side |
| The name of the projection for the Supraspinatus Outlet is called the | Neer Method |
| For an AP projection of the shoulder, the central ray is centered | 1 inch inferior to the corocoid process |
| The lesser tubercle will be seen in profile on the medial border of the humerus in a- | AP Oblique shoulder with internal rotation |
| What structure is shown in profile on a lateral projection of the elbow? | Olecranon process |
| Radiographs including soft tissue of the elbow in the lateral position are often ordered to demonstrate | Fat Pads |
| Which position of the elbow will clearly demonstrate the radial neck free of ulnar superimposition? | Lateral Oblique |
| Which basic projection of the elbow best demonstrates the olecranon process in profile? | Lateral |
| A technologist performs a PA axial (Stecher) wrist projection, but the resulting radiograph shows foreshortening of the scaphoid. Which error most likely caused this problem? | The wrist was not elevated approximately 20° |
| Which of the following projections corrects foreshortening and superimposition of the scaphoid? | PA in ulnar deviation |
| For which type of body habitus is the stomach nearly vertical and more central? | Hyposthenic |
| The expanded portion of the terminal esophagus is called the | Cardiac Antrum |
| At what point is chyme produced? | After mixing with gastric secretions in the stomach |
| What is proper patient positioning for unilateral PA SC joints? | Head turned toward affected side |
| What is the respiration phase for ribs below the diaphragm? | Suspended Expiration |
| Which of the following projections will best demonstrate the fundus of the stomach filled with barium? | AP oblique, LPO |
| Lesser tubercle in profile on medial border | Internal Rotation |
| Greater tubercle mostly superimposed on humeral head | Neutral Rotation |
| Greater tubercle in profile on lateral border | External Rotation |
| 10-15° caudad, passing through superior margin of humeral head, 1 inch superior to medial aspect of scapular spine | Supraspinatus Outlet |
| Since the lateral border of the scapula is Farther from the ribs- | The Patient is Under Rotated. Bring the affected shoulder closer to the IR |
| Continuous with the Coracoid Process- | Over Rotated |
| Continuous with the Acromion Process- | Under Rotated |
| Significant superimposition of the trapezium and Trapezoid can be seen in a- | PA Wrist |
| Open joints between both the Trapezium and Trapezoid and the Scaphoid and the Trapezium can be seen in a- | PA Oblique Wrist |
| A PA Wrist shows- | Open radioulnar joint space Scaphoid and Lunate NOT superimposed |
| A PA Oblique Wrist shows- | Radioulnar joint space NOT open Scaphoid and Lunate superimposed |
| Which position of the elbow will demonstrate the Coronoid process in profile and the Ulna superimposed by radial head and neck | Medial Oblique |
| Which position of the elbow will demonstrate the Radial Head, Neck, and Tuberosity slightly superimposed over the proximal ulna? | AP |
| An AP Elbow will show- | Open Humeroradial Joint |
| For an AP projection of the humerus, the patient is positioned so that the arm is | Adducted and the epicondyles are parallel to the CR |
