Calcaneal Axial (CA) View

Which view would provide the best assessment of the lateral column, including the cuboid and the lateral pole of the navicular?

Medial Oblique (MO) Foot View

In a radiograph of the foot, which view would be most appropriate to assess the position of the subtalar joint?

Lateral Foot View

For evaluating the forefoot to rearfoot relationship in a radiograph of the foot, which view should be used?

Anteroposterior (AP) Ankle View

In a weightbearing radiograph of the foot, which view would provide the most information on the medial column and the navicular tuberosity?

Lateral Oblique Foot View

To assess the syndesmosis in a foot radiograph, which view is most appropriate?

Anteroposterior (AP) Ankle View

In a radiograph of the ankle, which view would be most useful to evaluate the medial malleolus and tibiofibular overlap?

Anteroposterior (AP) Mortise Ankle View

To assess the frontal plane rotation of the 1st metatarsal in a foot radiograph, which view should be used?

Lateral Oblique Foot View

In a radiograph of a skeletally immature individual's foot, which bone type is the most accurate indicator of skeletal immaturity?

Growth plates

Which radiographic view of the foot would provide the best assessment of the medial longitudinal arch in a non-weightbearing position?

Lateral view

In a weightbearing radiograph of the foot, the most accurate indicator that the view is in a weightbearing position is if the:

Closed growth plates

In a radiograph of the foot, what indicates that the bone is skeletally immature?

Presence of open growth plates

If you are viewing a radiograph of a foot in a non-weightbearing position, which anatomical structure would be most useful to assess for skeletal maturity?

Sesamoid bones

When looking at an anteroposterior view of the foot in a radiograph, what position are you assuming the foot is in?

Non-weightbearing position

In an oblique view of the foot, which feature would help differentiate between a skeletally mature and immature individual?

Open growth plates in the bone

When looking at a radiograph of the foot with the plantar aspect on the ground (on the cassette), how can you distinguish between the right and left side?

Medial longitudinal arch shape

In a weightbearing radiograph of the foot, what is expected to be seen in terms of growth plates?

Closed growth plates in all bones

Test your knowledge on normal foot anatomy landmarks and structures seen in Anteroposterior (AP), Medial Oblique (MO), and Lateral (LAT) foot views.
