Unit 1 Introduction to basic radiographic technique
Anatomic & Positioning TerminologyCommon Abbreviations used in this book
Anatomic Terminology • 1/ Anatomic position • Erect, face forward, feet together, arms at sides with palms forward
2/Plane • Flat surface passed through the body or a portion of th body Longitudinal planes • Coronal • Sagittal Horizontal plane • Transverse Position
1 Coronal Plane. 2 Median Sagittal Plane. 3Axial Plane
inferior caudal caudad lateral anterior • 3/ Directional Terms cephalad cephalic superior cranial Posterior Anterior Lateral Medial distal Proximal
4/ Joint Movement Terms • ABDUCT ADDUCT
FLEXION EXTENSION • FLEXION EXTENSION
EVERSION INVERSION
ROTATION vs. CIRCUMDUCTION PRONATION vs. SUPINATION
5/ Body Position Terms • Describe the overall placement of the body Erect "upright" Position when the Sagittal and coronal planes of thebody are perpendicular to the horizon.
Recumbent "lying down" • Position when the transverse plane of the body is perpendicular to the horizon
decubitus vs. recumbent • general meanings are the same "LYING DOWN" • but in radiography, decubitus has a special meaning DECUBITUS patient is lying down & the x-ray beam is parallel to the horizon
