When centered to the up side (the left side in this case), the structures demonstrated are the posterior rim of the left acetabulum, the left anterior iliopubic column, and the left obturator foramen. The right iliac wing will be demonstrated in this position
The posterior oblique projection of the acetabulum (Judet method) requires a 45-degree obliquity of the entire midsagittal plane (MSP). In the RPO position, the down side (the right side in this case) will demonstrate the anterior rim of the right acetabulum, the right posterior ilioischial column, and the right iliac wing.
Which of the following positions would demonstrate the right lumbar Apophyseal articulations closest to the IR?
Which of the following positions would best demonstrate the left apophyseal articulations of the lumbar vertebrae? the apophyseal joints closer to the IR. The left apophyseal joints are demonstrated in the LPO position, while the right apophyseal joints are demonstrated in the RPO position.
When positioning for a lateral lumbar spine a radiolucent support should be placed under the patient's waist to?
Spine Question's.
What are the tube angle and direction for an AP projection of the cervical spine?
The CR is directed horizontal to the center of C-4 vertebra (at the level of the chin). B: For the AP view of the cervical spine, the patient is either erect or recumbent. The beam is directed toward the C-4 vertebra (at the Adam's apple) at an angle of 15°-20° cephalad.
Which position below will best demonstrate the articular facets on the left side of the cervical spine?
The correct answer is (C). The articular facets (zygapophyseal joints) of the L5-S1 articulation form a 30-degree angle with the MSP; they are, therefore, well demonstrated in a 30-degree oblique position.
