- 10—Hypersthenic Thorax
requires less obliquity
- 11—Sthenic Thorax
requires more obliquity
- 12The xiphoid process does not become completely ossified until the age of......40
- 13The sternal angle corresponds with the vertebral level of ____T4-T5
- 14The inside margin of the rib, containing the blood vessels and nerves, is called the _________Costal Groove
- 15The sternoclavicular joint of the first rib is classified as _________Synarthrodial
- 16What are some important technical factors for a sternum exam?-orthostatic breathing technique (2-3sec)
-40 SID, 65-80kVp
-pt must be obliqued to see the sternum
-CR perpendicular 1 in to the left of the midline
- 17What are some technical factors involved in a rib study?- RAO (LPO) elongates the left posterior and axillary ribs
- LAO (RPO) elongates the right posterior and axillary ribs
-area of interest must be closest to the IR
-mark the site of injury
- 18RAO for the sternum projects the ____ over the shadow of the ____STERNUM
HEART - 19If the sternum is superimposed by the spine, what should you do?Increase obliquity
- 20TRUE OR FALSE? If you decrease mA and increase Sec for a breathing technique, your technique will stay the same, you will just be increasing the exposure time.TRUE:
mA Sec =
2 1 3
1 2 3 - 21Expose on _____ if pt is standing Expose on _____ if pt is recumbentINSPIRATION
EXPIRATION - 22Why is the lateral sternum projected at 72 SID when the RAO is projected at 40 SID?increasing the SID will decrease the OID of the sternum in relation to the IR
- 23What makes a sternum x-ray repeatable?not seeing the entire sternum
rotation
exposure factors
no markers - 24What makes a rib study x-ray repeatable?not seeing all the ribs
poor inspiration/expiration
exposure factors
markers - 25Why are the SC joints projected in PA?Less OID with PA
- 26What makes a PA SC joint projection repeatable?rotation
exposure factors
done AP instead of PA - 27Which vertebral level corresponds with the SC joints?T2-T3
palpate the clavicle vs. manubrium - 28For oblique SC joints, you perform a ____ for the right side, and a ____ for the left sideRAO
LAO - 29When viewing oblique SC joint x-rays, how should the joint space appear?OPEN and shifted away from the spine
- 30What are the 2 views for the SC joints?PA
RAO (LPO)
LAO (RPO) - 31What are the 2 views for the sternum?RAO (LPO)
Lateral - 32What are the views of the ribs for a routine study?AP or PA above AND below diaphragm (bilateral)
Unilateral (AP or PA)
Axillary (anterior or posterior oblique) - 33TRUE OR FALSE The ideal general position for a study of ribs below the diaphragm is recumbent.TRUE
- 34RAO (LPO) elongates the _____ ribsLEFT
- 35LAO (RPO) elongates the ______ ribsRIGHT
- 36RAO will show the same image as ____LPO
- 37RPO will show the same image as ____LAO
- 38TRUE OR FALSE In general, you want the spine rotated toward the affected side.FALSE
you want the spine rotated away from the affected side - this will place the affected side to the IR - 39A patient enters the ER with a Fx rib and possible hemothorax/pneumothorax; which projection/position will be ordered along with the routine rib study?PA and Lateral CXR
- 40Which ribs are true?1-7
- 41Which ribs are false?8-10
- 42Which ribs are floating?11-12
- 43Which projection requires the patient to be erect and obliqued 15-20 degrees?RAO sternum
- 44Which projection requires the patient to be recumbent and obliqued 10-15 degrees?RAO SC Joint
- 45Which projection requires the patient to be erect with 45 degree obliquity?RAO Ribs
- 46Which projection requires the patient to be recumbent with 45 degree obliquity?LPO Ribs
- 47Which portion of the spine is level with the jugular notch?T2-3
- 48Which portion of the spine is level with the sternal angle?T4-5
- 49Which portion of the spine is level with the xiphoid tip?T9-10
- 50Which portion of the spine is level with the inferior costal margin?L2-3
- 51There is only one projection of the thorax that has 72 SID, the rest are all at 40 SID - Which projection is 72 SID?Lateral Sternum
- 52Where is the image receptor placed for a lateral sternum?1 1/2 in above jugular notch
- 53TRUE OR FALSE it is recommended practice to reduce SID to less than 40 SID for RAO sternum to magnify the sternumFALSE
never decrease SID below 40 SID - this is a patient radiation dose red flag! - 54anterior obliques will demonstratethe opposite side
- 55posterior obliques will demonstratethe same side
- 56A patient enters the ER with pain and injury to the right side of the ribs, which projection/position should you perform?RPO
it will elongate the posterior right ribs
*RAO will elongate the left ribs*
