Lateral Migration Radiography

Lateral chest radiography or a chicken in every pot.

Field methodology for lateral cranial radiography of nonhuman primates.

The historical lack of field-based radiographic studies of nonhuman primates within the field of anthropology is likely due to the perceived difficulty of transporting and operating X-ray equipment. Here we present a method for taking lateral cranial radiographs of nonhuman primates in the field that is simple to employ, and that produces exposed films suitable for collection of measurement dat...

Lateral positioning of the nasal bones using digital radiography.

Computed Radiography For computed radiography, a technologist places an 8 × 10-inch imaging plate into the upright Bucky, setting it directly onto the bottom lip of the cassette holder. The imaging plate should be pulled out of the T he nasal bones consist of 2 fused bones that help to form the bridge of the nose and can vary in size among adults (see Figure 1). Because the nose is a prominent ...

Improved lateral cervical spine radiography through halo traction device.

Patients with instability of the cervical spine due to trauma, neoplasm, infection, or surgery wear halo traction devices for prolonged periods of time. While providing the requisite distraction and stability, the four post frame of this device frequently frustrates attempts to monitor the progress of healing with sequential radiographs in the following ways: (1) the metal frame and wide plasti...
