29
Q

which tarsal bone forms part of the ankle joint

A

30
Q

essential projections of the calcaneus

A

axial (plantodorsal) and lateral (mediolateral)

31
Q

part position for axial (plantodorsal) calcaneus

A

ankle in right-angle dorsiflexion

32
Q

CR angle and enter point for axial (plantodorsal) calcaneus

A

40 degrees cephalic, enters plantar surface at base of third metatarsal

33
Q

patient position for AP ankle

A

supine or seated with affected extremity fully extended, ankle in right-angle dorsiflexion

34
Q

CR for AP ankle

A

perpendicular through ankle joint midway between malleoli

35
Q

Collimation for AP ankle

A

1 inch on sides of ankle and 8 inches lengthwise to include the heel

36
Q

rotation for AP oblique ankle

A

medial rotation 45 degrees

37
Q

CR for AP oblique ankle

A

perpendicular to ankle joint, midway between the malleoli

38
Q

part position for AP oblique mortise joint

A

ankle centered to IR, intermalleolar plane parallel with IR

39
Q

rotation for AP oblique mortise joint

leg and foot rotated medially 15-20 degrees

40
Q

lateral ankle position

A

turned toward affected side, leg and ankle in lateral position

41
Q

CR enters here for lateral ankle

A

medial malleolus

42
Q

What needs to be included in lateral ankle image

43
Q

Why AP Stress ankles are used

A

to verify ligamentous tears

44
Q

position for AP Stress Ankle

A

same as AP, with foot in extreme inversion and eversion positions, immobilization is required

45
Q

structures seen for axial calcaneus

A

non rotated calcaneus and calcaneocuboid joint

46
Q

what is in profile for lateral calcaneus

A

tuberosity in profile, with sinus tarsi, calcaneocuboid and talonavicular joints open

51
Q

Why we rotate 45 degrees for AP oblique ankle

A

open tibiofibular articulation, distal tibia and fibula overlap some of the talus
