  2. Oblique projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oblique_projection

    Oblique projection is a simple type of technical drawing of graphical projection used for producing two-dimensional (2D) images of three-dimensional (3D) objects. The objects are not in perspective and so do not correspond to any view of an object that can be obtained in practice, but the technique yields somewhat convincing and useful results.

  3. Projectional radiography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projectional_radiography

    Oblique - Projection taken with the central ray at an angle to any of the body planes. Described by the angle of obliquity and the portion of the body the X-ray beam exits; right or left and posterior or anterior. For example, a 45 degree Right Anterior Oblique of the Cervical Spine. Flexion - Joint is radiographed while in flexion

  4. Articular process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Articular_process

    A thoracic vertebra. (Superior labeled at top; inferior labeled at bottom.) The articular process or zygapophysis (Greek: ζυγόν, romanized: zugón, lit. ' yoke ' + apophysis) of a vertebra is a projection of the vertebra that serves the purpose of fitting with an adjacent vertebra. The actual region of contact is called the articular facet.

  5. Radius (bone) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radius_(bone)

    The radius is a long bone, prism -shaped and slightly curved longitudinally. The radius is part of two joints: the elbow and the wrist. At the elbow, it joins with the capitulum of the humerus, and in a separate region, with the ulna at the radial notch. At the wrist, the radius forms a joint with the ulna bone.

  6. Myelography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myelography

    Myelography is a type of radiographic examination that uses a contrast medium (e.g. iodised oil [1]) to detect pathology of the spinal cord, including the location of a spinal cord injury, cysts, and tumors. Historically the procedure involved the injection of a radiocontrast agent into the cervical or lumbar spine, followed by several X-ray ...

  7. CT scan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CT_scan

    − Average intensity projection − Maximum intensity projection − Thin slice (median plane) − Volume rendering by high and low threshold for radiodensity. The result of a CT scan is a volume of voxels, which may be presented to a human observer by various methods, which broadly fit into the following categories: Slices (of varying thickness).

  8. Sacrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sacrum

    Anatomical terms of bone. [ edit on Wikidata] The sacrum (pl.: sacra or sacrums[ 1 ]), in human anatomy, is a large, triangular bone at the base of the spine that forms by the fusing of the sacral vertebrae (S1–S5) between ages 18 and 30. [ 2 ] The sacrum situates at the upper, back part of the pelvic cavity, between the two wings of the pelvis.

  9. Axonometric projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axonometric_projection

    Classification of Axonometric projection and some 3D projections "Axonometry" means "to measure along the axes". In German literature, axonometry is based on Pohlke's theorem, such that the scope of axonometric projection could encompass every type of parallel projection, including not only orthographic projection (and multiview projection), but also oblique projection.
