Image #4  AP Ankle To make image optimal I will: Increase medial (internal) rotation Increase the collimation (cone down) Remove internal artifacts Increase flexion of ankle

Image #16 Fuji S-Value: 311 Range: 100-400 (no adjustment needed) Under 100 Over-exposed (- Technique)  Over 400 Under-exposed (+ Technique) To make image optimal I will: Lower the CR Increase technique Correct the rotation/tilt (to be optimal) Remove external artifacts (to be optimal)

Image #15 What projection/position does this image represent? 

Image #17 Positioning: All pertinent anatomy is included CR is directed too low (inferior) Skull is over-extended Minimal rotation is present

Image #14  Frog-leg Hip To make image optimal I will: Increase abduction of femoral shaft Decrease abduction of femoral shaft Move the CR down (inferior) to the proper point Place anatomical marker outside of bony anatomy

Image #20  L5-S1 Spot Positioning: All pertinent anatomy is included CR is too high Spine is parallel to IR L5-S1 joint space is not open

Image #10 Fuji S-Value: 72 Range: 75-200 (no adjustment needed) Under 75 Over-exposed (- Technique)  Over 200 Under-exposed (+ Technique) To make image optimal I will: Decrease the CR angle Increase the CR angle Increase lateral (external) rotation Increase technique

Image #4  AP Ankle Fuji S-Value: 184 Range: 75-200 (no adjustment needed) Under 75 Over-exposed (- Technique)  Over 200 Under-exposed (+ Technique) Image technique: Image is under-exposed Image is over-exposed Image is correctly exposed Trabecular markings and cortical outlines are well visualized

Image #13  AP Hip What projection/position does this image represent?

Image #6  Lateral Ankle Positioning: There is inadequate flexion of ankle CR is directed posterior to the proper point Critical joint spaces are narrowed Anatomy is aligned to the light field
