- Reusing images - Conflicts of interest: None Mikael Häggström, M.D. Consent note: Written informed consent was obtained from the individual, including online publication. Other versions: Postoperative X-ray of normal knee prosthesis: Anteroposterior view
The implant is positioned about 1 to 1.5 cm inside the lateral edge of the calcaneus, towards the medial side, and its position can be confirmed using anteroposterior images. On the lateral side, the implant should be observed resting on the floor of the sinus tarsi . [ 13 ]
Projectional radiography, also known as conventional radiography, [1] is a form of radiography and medical imaging that produces two-dimensional images by X-ray radiation. The image acquisition is generally performed by radiographers, and the images are often examined by radiologists. Both the procedure and any resultant images are often simply ...
Lateral view. It shows the following measurements used for post-operative evaluation : Anterior femoral notching (the femoral component causing reduced thickness of the distal femur anteriorly), which seems to cause an increased risk of fractures when exceeding about 3 mm. Reference:
Calcaneal spurs are typically detected by x-ray examination. [2] It is a form of exostosis. When a foot is exposed to constant stress, calcium deposits build up on the bottom of the heel bone. Generally, this has no effect on a person's daily life.
The Angle of Gissane, or "Critical Angle", is the angle formed by the downward and upward slopes of the calcaneal superior surface. On a lateral radiograph, an angle of Gissane > 130° suggests fracture of the posterior subtalar joint surface. Böhler's angle, or the "Tuber Angle", is another normal anatomic landmark seen in lateral radiographs.
In its simplest form, a fluoroscope consists of an X-ray source and a fluorescent screen, between which a patient is placed. However, since the 1950s most fluoroscopes have included X-ray image intensifiers and cameras as well, to improve the image's visibility and make it available on a remote display screen. For many decades, fluoroscopy ...
Lateral X-ray of a flat foot with C-sign, which is a bony bridge between the talar dome and sustentaculum tali, in combination with a prominent inferior border of the sustentaculum tali. This represents a talocalcaneal coalition, which is an abnormal connection between the talus and calcaneus and is thought to cause the flat foot deformity in ...
