Question 1

What line should be positioned perpendicular to the IR?

Answer 1

OML (orbitomeatal line)

Question 2

What should be in contact with the table/wall buckey?

Answer 2

Forehead and nose

Question 3

How is the MSP in relationship to the IR?

Answer 3

perpendicular

Question 4

What is the central ray location?

Answer 4

Exiting the naseon

Question 5

How should the petrous ridges be demonstrated?

Answer 5

Should fill orbits

Question 6

How can you determine rotation?

Answer 6

Lateral orbits lateral skull distance symmetrical

Question 7

How can you determine tilt?

Answer 7

One orbit will be higher than the other

Question 8

If the petrous ridges are demonstrated in the lower 1/3 of the orbits, what error occurred (if there is an error)?

Answer 8

Head was not tucked enough

Question 9

If the petrous ridges are demonstrated above the roof of the orbits, what error occurred (if there is an error)?

Answer 9

Head was tucked too much

Question 10

If there is greater distance seen between the lateral margin of the orbit and the lateral border of the skull on the right side, what error occurred (if there is an error)?

Answer 10

rotation to left

Question 11

If the right orbital roof is demonstrated above the left orbital rood, what error occurred (if there is an error)?

Answer 11

Tilt to the left

Question 12
