Name the 5 basic radiographic densities:
air, fat, soft tissue, bone, and metal
air, fat, fluid, bone, and metal

It refers to how the x ray enters into the patient
Radiographic technique
Conventional Radiography
Terminology
Tomography
The two terminology techniques are:
postero-anterior (PA) and antero-posterior (AP)
posterior-anterior (PA) and anterior-posterior (AP)
posterior-antero (PA) and anterior-postero (AP)
pos-an (PA) and an-pos (AP)
Terminology technique where the X ray enters the back of the patient first
-X rays hit the back of the patient first
-Heart is closer to the film
Anterior-postero (AP)
Posterior-antero (PA)
Antero-posterior (AP)
Postero-anterior (PA)
Terminology technique where the X ray enters the front side of the patient first
-X rays hit the front of the patient first
-Heart is further from the film
Postero-anterior (PA)
Antero-posterior (AP)
Posterior-antero (PA)
Anterior-postero (AP)
what technique is this?
AP
PA
AN
PN
Electrons (a) the cathode then go to the Anode and produce x rays
The closer the object is to the film, the ______ prone it will be to magnification blurry edges
More
Less
Taking the object away from the film ______ blurry edges
Magnifies
Minimizes
What technique is 1 and 2?
1 PA 2 AP
1 AP 2 PA
looks larger and more blurry, which one am I talking about
On the right, AP
On the left, AP
On the right, PA
On the left, PA
looks sharper and is the normal X ray, which one am I talking about
On the left, AP
On the right, AP
On the right, PA
On the left, PA
What is Conventional Radiography useful for?
Detect fractures, detect tumors, bone imaging, any emergency
Chest imaging, detect tumors,, line placement, abdominal emergencies
Detect fractures, line placement, abdominal emergencies, chest imaging
Chest imaging, detect fractures, and tumors
Importance of technique:
Multiple views
Not that important
A requirement
