[Shelles]

An optimal AP axial foot projection demonstrates all the following except
 
  a. an open medial-intermediate cuneiform joint space.
  b. uniform density across the phalanges, metatarsals, and tarsals.
  c. the calcaneus without talar superimposition.
  d. open TMT joint spaces.

Question 2

A less than optimal AP axial toe projection demonstrates more soft tissue width on the lateral side than on the medial side of the phalanges. Which of the following is true about this projec-tion?
 
  a. The toe needs to be rotated laterally to obtain an optimal projection.
  b. If the patient is unable to move, the central ray angle needs to be adjusted medi-ally to obtain an optimal projection.
  c. The projection will also demonstrate closed IP and MTP joint spaces.
  d. The projection will also demonstrate less midshaft concavity on the lateral side of the phalanges compared with the medial side.
