what should be perp to IR for a true PA XR of mandibular body (if it’s the area of interest)?

A

AML

48
Q

which aspect of mandible is best seen w an AP axial XR?

A

condyloid processes (CONDYLES!!!)

49
Q

where is CR centered for AP axial of mandible?

A

A

true

52
Q

A

false. (ant.)

53
Q

which TMJ XR requires skull to remain in true lat pos?

A

Schuller

54
Q

axiolat (schuller) for TMJ requires a CR angle of?

A

25-30º caudad (to 1/2” ant. & 2” sup. to EAM)

55
Q

lat facial reveals that rami are not superimposed. what occurred?

A

skull rotation

56
Q

30º PA axial facial reveals petrous ridges are projected at the level of the IOMs. Is this acceptable? how do you correct?

A

yes; you don’t - XR ok

57
Q

lat facial reveals that mandibular bodies are not superimposed (one is about 1 cm sup. to the other). what happened? how do you correct?

A

skull tilt; make sure MSP is II to IR, and IPL is perp to IR, and IOML is perp to front edge of IR

Q

Rhese XR reveals that the optic foramen is located in the upper outer quadrant of orbit. is this acceptable? how do you correct?

A

No. + neck extension. AML should be perp to IR to ensure optic foramen is open & projected into lower outer quadrant of orbit

63
Q

tech attempts SMV XR. bc of size of pt’s shoulders, he is unable to flex his neck adequately to place IOML II to IR. what can tech do to produce acceptable SMV XR?

skull rotation

65
Q

SMV reveals that the distance btw the mandibular condyles and lat border of the skull is not equal. what occurred?

skull tilt

A

none.

67
Q

majority of hard palate is formed by?

A

palatine bones
