Which landmarks are aligned for the AP projection in the open mouth position?Which two landmarks must be aligned for an AP "open mouth" projection. The lower margin of upper incisors and the base of the skull. What is the purpose of the 15 to 20 degree angle for the AP axial projection of the cervical spine? To open the intervertebral disk space.
Where should the central ray be centered on the patient for the AP projection of the lumbosacral vertebrae?For an AP projection of the lumbar spine, the patient is supine on the table, with their hips and knees flexed to eliminate the normal physiologic lumbar lordosis. The CR is directed vertically to the center of the abdomen at the level of the iliac crests.
What is the proper central ray angulation for an AP projection of the cervical vertebrae?When performing an AP axial projection of the cervical spine, the central ray should be angled 15-20 degrees cephalad. Because the central ray should pass through C4, and because there is a cephalic angulation of the beam, the central ray should enter inferior to the level where it exits.
