Which metatarsal Fx is most common? base of 5th metatarsal tuberosity
The 1st cuneiform is between the _____ and the ____ 1st metatarsal and navicular
the cuboid is on the ____ side of the foot lateral
which tarsal bone is located directly anterior to talus? navicular
Which tarsal bone is on the medial side between the talus and 3 cuneiforms? Navicular
What is the name of the small space between the talus and calcaneus? Sinus Tarsi
What bone is superior to the calcaneus? Talus
Which cuneiform will articulate with the 3rd metatarsal? 3rd cuneiform
Which bones make up the ankle joint? distal tibia distal fibula talus
How can you tell if an x-ray of a lateral ankle is truly lateral? the distal fibula must superimpose half of the distal tibia
For a standard oblique of the ankle, the ankle is in ___ degree rotation For the mortise the ankle is in ___ degree obliquity 45 15-20
How many bones are found in the foot? 26
What is the strongest and largest of the tarsal bones? Calcaneus
The sustentaculum tali is found on the ____ calcaneus
What are some technical considerations for toes, feet, and ankle projections? -40 SID -small focal spot -table top - nongrid -50-70 kVp -10x12 or smaller IR -place marker on lateral side of appendage
What are the routine studies for the toes? AP Oblique Lateral
AP Toes - CR < 10-15 degrees toward calcaneus @ MTP joint - can use a 15 degree wedge w/ CR perpendicular as an alternative
Lateral Oblique Toes - use lateral oblique for 4th and 5th digits to reduce OID - CR perpendicular to IR @ affected digit's MTP joint
Medial Oblique Toes - use medial oblique for 1st - 3rd digits to reduce OID - CR perpendicular to IR @ affected digit's MTP joint
Lateral Toe - CR perpendicular to IR - directed to IP joint for 1st digit, and PIP for 2nd-5th digits
Why are the lateral and oblique projections usually done mediolateral? It's easier for the patient to position their foot into a mediolateral projection - you get true laterals and better obliques when the patient can cooperate.
What makes a digit x-ray repeatable? too much/too little rotation exposure factors MUST SEE up to half of the metatarsal DO NOT COLLIMATE OFF DIGIT!
What are the routine studies for a foot? AP Oblique Lateral
AP Foot - CR < posteriorly toward the heel 10 degrees - CR centered @ base of 3rd metatarsal
AP Oblique Foot - location of foreign bodies - CR perpendicular @ base of 3rd metatarsal - should be at least 30 degrees obliqued
Lateral (mediolateral) Foot - location of foreign bodies - CR perpendicular @ medial cuneiform - MUST HAVE at least 1 in of tib/fib shown with the open joint
What makes a foot x-ray repeatable? coning off anatomy rotation exposure factors motion
What are the routine views of the calcaneus? Plantodorsal Axial Lateral
Plantodorsal Axial - foot should be flexed 90 degrees - CR < 40 degrees cephalad from long axis of foot (down into the heel) - center @ base of 3rd metatarsal to emerge at a level just distal to lateral malleolus
Lateral (mediolateral) Calcaneus - CR perpendicular @ 1 in distal/inferior to medial malleolus - angling the foot up slightly will open up the joint spaces for a true lateral projection
What makes a calcaneus x-ray repeatable? coning off anatomy rotation exposure factors motion
What are the routine views of the ankle? AP Mortise Lateral
AP Ankle - CR perpendicular @ point midway between the malleoli - make sure the lower leg is not rotated!
AP Mortise - Internally rotate entire leg and foot 15-20 degrees until intermalleolar line is parallel to IR - CR perpendicular @ midpoint between malleoli - should have space all around fibula
Lateral (mediolateral) Ankle - use sponges to keep the foot and leg in true lateral position - CR perpendicular @ medial malleolus
*special* AP Oblique Medial Rotation - rotate foot and leg medially 45 degrees - CR perpendicular @ midpoint between malleoli
What makes an ankle x-ray repeatable? coning off anatomy rotation exposure factors motion closed joint spaces on Mortise
Which tarsal forms an aspect of the ankle joint? Talus
Which is the smallest of the cuneiforms? Intermediate Cuneiform
Which tarsal is found on the medial side of the foot between the talus and cuneiforms? Navicular
Which is the largest of the cuneiforms? Medial Cuneiform
Which tarsal articulates with the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th metatarsals? Lateral Cuneiform
Which is the most superior tarsal bone? Talus
Which bone articulates with the first metatarsal? Medial Cuneiform
Which tarsal is a common site for bone spurs? Calcaneus
Which is a tarsal found anterior to the calcaneus and lateral to the lateral cuneiform? Cuboid
Which is the 2nd largest tarsal bone? Talus
Which projection has the CR angled 10-15 degrees posteriorly into the heel? AP Toes
Which projection has the CR angled 10 degrees posteriorly into the heel? AP Foot
Which projection has the CR angled 40 degrees cephalad into the heel? Inferosuperior Axial Calcaneus
Which projection has the foot rotated inward 15-20 degrees? AP Mortise Ankle
Which projection has the foot rotated inward 45 degrees? AP Medial Oblique Ankle
Which projection best demonstrates the lateral mortise joint? AP Mortise
Which projection best demonstrates the distal tibulofibular joint articulation? AP Medial Oblique Ankle
Which projection best demonstrates the talus bone and medial joint? AP Ankle
Ossification Bone Development
Os Calcis Calcaneus
Which projection(s) have the patella perpendicular to the table/IR? Lateral Foot Lateral Ankle Lateral Toe
Which projection best demonstrates the sinus tarsi, calcaneus, and talus? Oblique Foot
For which projections should you make sure the foot is dorsiflexed to get open joint spaces? AP Mortise Ankle AP Oblique Ankle Lateral Ankle Lateral Foot
If you need more exposure time but your mAs and kVp need to stay the same, what should you do? Decrease mA Increase time _____________________ mA sec mAs 2 1 3 1 2 3
