Position: Fluoro Barium Enema Lateral Rectum The lateral rectum projection demonstrates the rectum and distal sigmoid. It evaluates strictures and masses. Proper positioning prevents rotation. This projection is essential for complete colonic evaluation. It is frequently tested on ARRT exams.
Position: Calcaneus Lateral The lateral calcaneus projection demonstrates the calcaneus in profile. It evaluates fractures, joint alignment, and soft tissue abnormalities. Proper positioning ensures the talus and calcaneus are visualized clearly. This projection complements the axial view. It is a standard ARRT competency.
Position: Fluoro VCUG AP The AP VCUG projection evaluates bladder filling and voiding. Contrast outlines the bladder and urethra. This projection identifies reflux and structural abnormalities. Proper timing is essential. It is a core ARRT pediatric fluoroscopy competency.
Position: Toes AP The AP toes projection demonstrates phalanges and interphalangeal joints. A slight angle opens joint spaces. This projection evaluates fractures and deformities. Proper centering ensures visualization of all digits. It is a core ARRT requirement.
Position: Fluoro VCUG Oblique The oblique VCUG projection demonstrates the urethra without superimposition. It is essential for evaluating reflux and obstruction. Proper rotation ensures diagnostic quality. This projection complements AP views. It is frequently tested on ARRT exams.
Position: Fluoro ERCP AP The AP ERCP projection demonstrates the biliary ducts during contrast injection. It evaluates stones, strictures, and obstruction. Proper centering ensures visualization of the duodenum and biliary tree. This projection is essential for interventional fluoroscopy. It is a recognized ARRT competency.
Position: Fluoro ERCP Oblique The oblique ERCP projection improves visualization of the pancreatic and biliary ducts. Proper rotation prevents superimposition. This projection evaluates ductal anatomy and pathology. It complements AP views. It is frequently tested on ARRT exams.
Position: Fluoro Myelogram AP The AP myelogram projection demonstrates contrast within the spinal canal. It evaluates stenosis, herniation, and nerve root compression. Proper centering ensures full visualization of the region of interest. This projection is essential for spinal fluoroscopy. It is a core ARRT competency.
Position: Fluoro Myelogram Lateral The lateral myelogram projection demonstrates the spinal canal in profile. It evaluates nerve root sleeves and compression. Proper positioning prevents rotation. This projection complements AP views. It is frequently tested on ARRT exams.
Position: Fluoro Arthrogram AP The AP arthrogram projection demonstrates contrast within a joint. It evaluates labral tears, ligament injuries, and cartilage defects. Proper centering ensures full joint visualization. This projection is essential for orthopedic fluoroscopy. It is a recognized ARRT competency.
