Toe-tally Anatomical
The most distal portion of the fibula is called this.
What is the lateral malleolus?
For an AP oblique foot, the foot should be rotated this many degrees.
What is 30–40 degrees?
This type of fracture occurs at the base of the 5th metatarsal and is notorious for poor healing due to limited blood supply
What is a Jones fracture?
The small, flat, triangular bone located on the anterior surface of the knee joint is the ____.
What is the patella?
To turn the foot outward is described by this term.
What is evert or eversion?
This tarsal bone articulates anteriorly with the talus.
What is the navicular?
To best demonstrate the mortise of the ankle, the foot is rotated this many degrees medially.
What is 15–20 degrees?
This type of fracture occurs when a tendon or ligament pulls off a small piece of bone at its attachment site.
What is an avulsion fracture?
AP projection of the knee on a patient with an ASIS to tabletop distance of 24cm requires this degree and direction of angulation.
What is 0 degrees, perpendicular?
For an AP projection of the knee, the CR angle depends on this patient measurement.
What is the distance from ASIS to tabletop?
On which side of the foot does the cuboid lie?
What is lateral?
This projection only exists in NGHS protocol and therefore I will NOT perform it during SIM.
What is external oblique ankle?
Fracture of the distal fibula, often accompanied by avulsion of the medial malleolus, is known as this type of ankle injury.
What is a Pott fracture?
The area separating the medial and lateral femoral condyles posteriorly is the:
What is the intercondyloid fossa?
This projection demonstrates the patella in profile with the patient prone, the knee flexed 90°, and the CR angled 15°–20° cephalad.
What is the Settegast method?
The lateral cuneiform articulates with the 3rd metatarsal and which other bone?
What is the cuboid?
To demonstrate the joint spaces of the midfoot on an AP projection, the CR should be angled this direction and amount AND should be centered here.
What is 10° posterior (toward the heel) and direct CR to the base of the 3rd metatarsal?
This overuse injury causes inflammation and pain at the tibial tuberosity, most common in active adolescents.
What is Osgood-Schlatter disease?
This method is used to demonstrate the patellofemoral joint space with the patient prone and the knee flexed 50°-60° from the table.
What is the Hughston method?
Bonus: What is the CR angle and direction?
To prevent the femoral condyles from appearing non-superimposed on a lateral knee, the CR is angled this direction and amount.
What is 5–7° cephalad?
The medial longitudinal arch is made up primarily of these three bones.
What are the calcaneus, talus, and navicular?
To best visualize the sinus tarsi, perform this projection
What is the AP oblique foot (medial rotation)?
A fracture of the tibia and fibula involving displacement and possible rotation of the foot, typically from twisting injury, is known as this.
What is a bimalleolar fracture?
This method demonstrates the intercondylar fossa with the patient kneeling 20–30° forward.
What is the Holmblad method?
To visualize the intercondylar fossa on the Camp-Coventry method, the knee is flexed this much, and the CR angled this many degrees and direction.
What is 40–50° knee flexion and the CR must be angled caudally to match angle of lower leg?
