Question
Answer
What are the projections done for orbits?   Waters, Lateral of affected side, PA Axial, Rhese PA bilateral  
🗑
In the Waters orbits, the OML is perpendicular and the MML forms a 37 degree angle to the table. T or F   False, the MML is perpendicular and te OML forms a 37 degree angle to the IR  
🗑
What is the main reason for doing a Waters with the orbits?   To see a blow out fracture  
🗑
Describe the patients position in the Waters orbits?   Patient is prone or upright, chin in table  
🗑
Central ray is _______ and exits the _______ in the Waters orbits.   Perpendicular; acanthion  
🗑
In the Waters orbits the petrous ridges are located where?   Located below the maxillary sinuses  
🗑
In the Lateral orbits, which side do we do?   We do the affected side  
🗑
Describe patients position and positioning lines used in Lateral orbits projection.   Pt. is semi-prone with affected side against film; IPL perpendicular, MSP paralle, IOML parallel  
🗑
In the Lateral orbits the central ray is ______.   perpendicular through the outer canthus of the affected side  
🗑
What is demonstrated in the Lateral orbits?   Orbital roofs superimposed  
🗑
PA axial orbits: Describe central ray direction and exit or entrance point.   Central ray is angled 20-25 degrees caudal (30 degrees merrils) and exits at the level of the inferior margin of the orbit  
🗑
Describe patients position for the PA axial orbits.   patient is prone or upright, Forehead and nose resting on table, OML perpendicular, MSP perpendicular  
🗑
In the PA axial orbits the petrous ridges are located ______.   below the superior orbital fissures  
🗑
What is most importantly demonstrated in the PA axial orbits?   Orbits free of superimposition by the petrous ridges  
🗑
Which method is used to demonstrate the optic foramen in inferior lateral corner of orbit side down and outer rim of side up?   Rhese PA parieto orbital oblique  
🗑
In the PA Rhese the patient is prone and the head is rotated so MSP forms a _____ from the IR.   53 degree angle from IR  
🗑
What is the central ray direction and entrance point in the Rhese PA orbits?   perpendicular through the inner canthus side up  
🗑
In the Waters Orbits, what is demonstrated?   petrous ridges below the maxillary sinuses, blowout orbital fractures, no rotation  
🗑
