What is Perpendicular, centered 1-2" distal of the femoral neck.
100
The rami of the pubis and ischium are best demonstrated on this projection.
What is the Outlet projection
100
An AP Projection of the pelvis demonstrates the right obturator foramen open and the right ilium narrowed. What is the positioning error?
What is rotation of the patient towards the left side (LPO)
200

The anatomical structure used to best determine sufficient leg rotation during an AP Projection of the Proximal femur
What is the lesser trochanter
200
These two bony landmarks can be used to for accurate centering of an AP Projection of the pelvis
What are the ASIS and the greater trochanters
200
This pathology is described as "thick, soft bone marked by bowing and fractures".
What is Paget's Disease
300
The location of the fibula in relationship to the tibia
What is lateral and posterior

The knee projection that best demonstrates an open proximal tibiofibula joint space
What is the AP Oblique projection with medial/internal rotation
300
The difference between the Modified Cleaves and the Lauenstein Hickey methods
What is pelvis rotation - modified cleaves: pelvis remains in true AP. Lauenstein Hickey: pelvis is rotated towards affected side to place femur in contact with table
300

What is perpendicular
400
The three things that must be parallel with one another during an Axiolateral Inferosuperior Hip Projection
What are the IR, femoral neck and x-ray tube
400
Central ray for the Posterior Oblique Pelvis, upside.
What is perpendicular, centered 2" distal to the upside ASIS

What is the AP Weight Bearing projection of the knee(s)
500
Location of the intertrochanteric Crest
What is posterior femur, between greater and lesser trochanters
500
The two reasons the prone position is preferred for patella imaging
