🗑
Where is the petrous pyramids projected when performing Skull PA Caldwell   Lower 1/3 of the orbits  
🗑
Which lines do we use to position the pt for Lateral Skull   IPL perpendicular to IR IOML perpendicular to the edge of IR  
🗑
CR for Lat Skull   CR perpendicular to a point 2" above the EAM  
🗑
Which structures are demonstrated in profile in a lateral skull   Sella Turcica and the clivus  
🗑
Which line is perpendicular to IR for Skull AP Axial (Towne's)   OML or IOML perpendicular to IR  
🗑
CR for Skull Towne's   OML 30˚ caudad/ IOML 37˚ caudad to a point 2.5" above the glabella (hairline)  
🗑
Which structures are visualized in the shallow of the foramen magnum in a Skull Town's view   Sella turcica and clinoids  
🗑
Best view of the skull to visualize the Occipital bone   Towne's  
🗑
Which part of the pt's face is touching the IR for Skull PA Caldwell   Nose and forehead  
🗑
In order to project the petrous pyramids into the lower third of the orbits when obtaining a PA caldwell projection of the cranium, the central ray should be directed   Caudad  
🗑
Situation: a pt comes to rad for a routine study of the cranium. He’s unable to flex his head and neck sufficiently to place the OML perp to the IR for the AP axial projection, what should the tech do?   USE THE IOML AND INCREASE CR ANGULATION BY 7 DEG  
🗑
During a parietocanthial (waters) projection, susie is instructed to rest her _______ on the table or upright Bucky   chin  
🗑
Which set of the sinuses is projected thru the open mouth on a parietocanthial projection?   SPHENOID  
🗑
On a lateral skull the sinuses that are located posterior and below the sella tursica are the:   SPHENOID SINUSES  
🗑
The primary reason sinuses should be done erect is to demonstrate   Air-fluid levels  
🗑
The pair of bones that form most of the lateral walls of the skull is the   Parietal  
🗑
In an erect upper PA caldwell for sinuses which of the following would be angled 15 degrees?   OML 15˚ from horizontal  
🗑
The SMV projection requires that the IOML is placed parallel to the IR   true  
🗑
To demonstrate the floor of the cranium, what projection/position should be used   SMV  
🗑
For the lateral projection of the paranasal sinuses, the IR is centered   Midway between the outer canthus and the EAM  
🗑
Which variation of the PA axial projection of the skull has been performed if the petrous ridges are at the level of the supraorbital margin?   PA 0˚  
🗑
The crista Galli is part of the ______ bone   Ethmoid  
🗑
To properly demonstrate a submentovertex projection, the CR should be placed perpendicular to the ______ line   IOML  
🗑
What is the proper angulation of the orbitomeatal line to the IR for a parietocanthaial projection (waters method) for the paranasal sinuses?   37˚  
🗑
On a PA skull with no angulation the petrous pyramids are demonstrated in the   On the center of the orbits  
🗑
What are routine views for Skull   PA Axial Caldwell PA 0˚ AP Axial Towne's Lateral  
🗑
What are the routine views for Facial Bones   PA Axial Caldwell Parietoacanthial (Water's) Lateral  
🗑
Which line do we use to position the pt for Facial Bones (Water's)   MML perpendicular to IR OML forms a 37˚ angle with the IR  
🗑
Which part of the pt's face is touching the IR for Facial Bones (Water's)   The Chin  
🗑
CR for Water's Facial Bones   CR perpendicular to exit the acanthion  
🗑
CR for Lateral Facial Bones   Cr perpendicular to midpoint between the outer canthus and the EAM (zygoma)  
🗑
Routine Views for Paranasal Sinuses   PA Caldwell Water's Lateral SMV  
🗑
What's the difference in positioning a Caldwell for Skull and one for Sinuses   For skull the OML is perpendicular to the IR and the CR is 15˚ caudad, while for sinuses the OML is 15˚ from horizontal and the CR is perpendicular  
🗑
CR for lateral sinuses   CR perpendicular to midpoint the outer canthus and the EAM  
🗑
CR for SMV   CR perpendicular to midpoint of mandibular angles (2" inferior to mandibular symphysis)  
🗑
