3 types- foreshortening, elongation,spatial resolution
shape distortion- what
aka
misrep of true shape of image compared to obj aka true disortion
xray shape
cone
central ray
phton in exact center
ideal relationshio
obj is paralle to film, CR is perp to the obj, and CR is perp to film with CR centered to obj
foreshortening
when obj is angled but cr is perp
elongation
obj is parallel to film or onj angled and cr perp
cr direclty over object to minimize ___distortion
shape
spatial resolutioin
3d relationship of body parts is distorted by an angle of CR
