X-Ray Positioning & Anatomy

X-RAY POSITIONING & ANATOMY Master X-ray positioning, radiographic positioning and X-ray anatomy with a reference app for radiographers, radiologic technologists, rad techs, radiology students and medical imaging professionals. Explore 231 detailed X-ray positioning examinations covering routine radiographic projections, specialist X-ray views, trauma radiography and additional positioning techniques from head to toe. Each guide explains patient and body-part positioning, detector placement, X-ray tube position, central-ray direction, tube angulation, centring, collimation, SID/FFD, exposure guidance, kV and mAs, breathing instructions, image evaluation and common errors. COMPLETE RADIOGRAPHIC POSITIONING GUIDE Skull, Head & Facial Bones Includes skull AP, PA and lateral views, Towne’s, Reverse Towne’s, submento-vertical, facial bones, occipitomental views, nasal bones, mandible, TMJ, paranasal sinuses, sella turcica, jugular foramina, mastoids, Stenvers projection, orbits, optic foramina, zygomatic arches and adenoid positioning. Spine X-Ray Positioning Cervical spine AP, lateral and oblique views, trauma cervical spine, open-mouth odontoid, Ottonello moving-jaw, flexion and extension, Swimmer’s view, thoracic spine, lumbar spine, lumbosacral junction, sacrum and coccyx. Chest & Thorax PA chest, AP chest, lateral chest, supine and semi-erect chest, mobile chest radiography, lateral decubitus chest, apical and lordotic views, ribs, sternum and sternoclavicular joints. Abdomen, Pelvis & Limbs Includes abdomen, pelvis and hip X-ray positioning plus fingers, thumb, hand, wrist, scaphoid, forearm, elbow, humerus, shoulder, scapula, clavicle, AC joints, toes, foot, calcaneus, ankle, tibia and fibula, knee, patella and femur. DETAILED POSITIONING INFORMATION Examinations may include: • Clinical indications • Patient preparation • Patient and body-part positioning • Image receptor / detector position and size • SID / FFD • X-ray tube position and central ray • Tube angulation and centring • Collimation • kV and mAs guidance • Patient-size exposure adjustment • Breathing and immobilisation instructions • Essential image characteristics • Radiographic image evaluation • Common errors and practical tips REAL HUMAN-BASED POSITIONING IMAGES Learn radiography positioning using clear human-based images. Many examinations include multiple viewing angles showing body rotation, limb placement, detector position, tube alignment and central-ray direction—especially useful for specialist radiographic projections and uncommon X-ray views. X-RAY ANATOMY & RADIOGRAPHIC ANATOMY Study labelled radiographs of the skull, facial bones, spine, chest, abdomen, pelvis, shoulder, upper limb, hand, wrist, elbow, lower limb, knee, ankle and foot. Learn bones, joints, joint spaces and important radiographic landmarks directly on X-ray images. Combining X-ray positioning with radiology anatomy helps users understand both how to perform an examination and which anatomical structures should appear on a correctly positioned radiograph.
