bone moves in a cupcake cavity Ex: Hip, shoulder
Synovial (Diarthrodial) Joints - correct answer freely movable joints that contain a fluid-filled
joint capsule lines with synovial membranes and ligaments

to visualize the "open" right sacroiliac joints - correct answer perform an 25-30 degree LPO and
RAO position
to visualize the right zygophyseal joints on lumbar spine - correct answer position patient in an
RPO 45 degree
What structures are seen in an Lateral Lumbar spine? - correct answer intervertebral foramina,
spinous processes, and intervertebral disk spaces
When performing the AP axial Cspine - correct answer 15-20 cephalic angle, visualizes the
intervertebral disk spaces
For an oblique Lumbar spine - correct answer Center at the Lower costal margin
PA Caldwell Skull - correct answer CR directed caudal 15 degrees to OML, frontal sinuses
visualized, petrous pyramids projected into the lower 1/3 orbits
For AP Thoracic Spine - correct answer visualizes the intervertebral disk spaces
Zygophyseal Joints are formed by the - correct answer Superior and Inferior articular processes
Intervertebral foramina is formed by - correct answer vertebral notches of the pedicles
When performing the Waters projection - correct answer head rested on extended chin, OML
forms a 37 degree angle with IR
AP Bilateral Frog Leg - correct answer called "Modified Cleaves"
AP Axial Outlet Projection (Taylor Method) - correct answer called "Taylor Method"
Which vertebral structures form the "lordotic curves"? - correct answer Cervical and Lumbar
PA Skull NO angle - correct answer CR enters at Glabella
AP Axial L5-S1 lumbar spine - correct answer 30-35 degrees cephalic
If patient is not able to stand for the erect paranasal sinuses,, - correct answer you should

With the patient in the PA position and the OML and central ray perpendicular to the film, the
resulting radiograph will demonstrate the petrous pyramids
(A) below the orbits.
(B) in the lower one-third of the orbits.
(C) completely within the orbits.
(D) above the orbits. - correct answer C. Completely within the orbits
Which projection would you visualize the L5-S1 joint space - correct answer Lateral
sacrum/coccyx
Which projection is performed with the spinous process separated? - correct answer Lateral
Cervical spine flexion
Which projection would demonstrate the AP vertebral mobility? - correct answer Lateral
Cervical spine extension
To best demonstrate the lumboscaral junction in AP recumbent - correct answer CR 30-35
cephalic
To best demonstrate pathology of the zygomatic arch - correct answer perform SMV and
oblique inferosuperior tangential projection
Flow of blood through the heart - correct answer Deoxygenated blood enters into the heart
through the superior and inferior vena cava
Blood travels into the right atrium and flows through the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle
Blood is pushed through the pulmonary valve into the pulmonary artery and lungs when the
right ventrical contracts and picks up oxygen
Oxygenated blood is then carried back to the heart by the pulmonary veins into the left atrium
through the mitral valve and into the left ventricle
Contraction of the left ventricle forces the blood through the aortic valve, through the aorta,
and out to the entire body
Increases in technical factors - correct answer Cystic fibrosis, Atelectasis, Pulmonary Edema
To evaluate the pisiform free of superimposition - correct answer perform the AP oblique wrist

diverticulum
Which joint is open on the medial oblique foot - correct answer distal tibiofibular joint
