    1) Radiological anatomy is the study of anatomy using x-rays, where denser structures like bone absorb more x-rays than soft tissues like muscle and skin. 2) Standard x-ray views include antero-posterior, postero-anterior, lateral, and oblique views. Plain x-rays show bones white and soft tissues black, while contrast x-rays use substances like barium sulfate. 3) X-rays are used to diagnose fractures, dislocations, and diseases and determine bone development and age. They allow visualization of structures like shoulders, elbows, wrists, hands and vertebrae.

    NORMAL RADIOLOGICAL

    ANATOMY
    The study of Anatomy by using X- Rays is referred to as
    Radiological Anatomy
    Properties:
    Penetrating Effect- Absorption & Scattering
    Higher the atomic wt. & density-greater the absorbtion of X rays
    Eg: Bone – High in Calcium content – absorbs X-rays more than
    skin & muscle
    Radiolucent & radioopaque

    Standard Views:
    Antero-posterior (AP)
    Postero-anterior (PA)
    Lateral
    Oblique
    Types of X-rays:
    1) Plain: Translucent areas – appears BLACK
    Dense / opaque areas- appears WHITE
    2)Contrast : Opaque – Barium sulphate
    Translucent- Air/ oxygen- for ventricles of brain

    Structure of mature Bones &


    immature bones:
    How to read the X Ray
     View- plain & contrast
     Identify all bones
     Joints

    USES
     To diagnose fractures & dislocations, diseases
     Developmental defects
     Age determination
