Q

What is calcified thyroid cartilage sometimes mistaken for vertebral artery calcification?

A

Because its unable to be seen on plane film and appears as a tube like structure running obliquely across the articular pillars

21

What is the most overcalled diagnosis is radiology

A

Facet tropism

39
Q

What are the nuclear end plate impressions? Where do they occur and what are they usually mistake for?

A

Long and smooth indentations of the end plate due to persistence of notochord reminence, most common in lumbark don’t mistake for schmorls node

40
Q

A

Spina bifida occulta at S1 tubercle attaches to L5 Spinous process making

41
Q

What is a butterfly vertebra and what is it often mistaken for

A

A variation of heme vertebrae, lateral bodies from but don’t unite due to the persistence of notochord and nucleus extends through the body,

42
Q

In years indicate the age of initial ossification for the growth centres of the wrist

A
  • radius is primary present at birth
  • secondary for the radius appears first year and unites 14-17

Ulnar primary present at birt

  • secondary appears 4th-5th
  • unites 14-17
  • styloid process may form from its own centre

Carpals:
Primary- all form from single ossification centres
Capitate is first in 1st year
Followed by the hamate, triquetrum, lunate, scaphoid, trapezium and trapezoid all in that order
Pisiform forms at 10 years

43
Q

Elbow

A
Lateral malleolus at 10yr s
Medial malleolus at 4
Trochlear appears at 8 
Capitulum appears at 2 
Olecranon at 9 
Radius head 5
