Structures for AP
Phalanges, MT, cuneiform, navicular and cuboid.
Distal talus and calcaneus
Related ST
CR and CP AP
CR: 10-15 Cephalad / perp to LA of MT3
CP: base of 3rd MT
BTP AP
Tmt and navicular cuneiform joints open
No rotation AP
Main: medial-intermediate cuneiform joint open
And 1/3rd talus SI on calcaneus
Other: space btwn 1 and 2 mt likely free of SI
Mt 2-5 somewhat SI
MT heads clear of SI
Structures Oblq
Phalanges, MT, tarsals, ankle joint, distal tib/fib, related ST
CR and CP oblq
Cr: perp
Cp: base of 3rd MT
Correct obliquity
Main: cuboid projected clear
Others: MT base 3-5 free of SI
Base of MT1 and 2 SI
Equal space btwn MT shafts
Structures Lat
Phalanges, MT, tarsals and entire ankle joint, related ST
CR and CP lat
CR: perp
CP: base of 3rd MT
Adequate rotation Lat
Main: Talar domes aligned ant/post
Others: distal fibula SI on posterior half of tibia
MT heads SI
No inversion/eversion lat
Main: talar domes aligned prox/distal
Others: 1/2 cuboid posterior to navicular
Fibula distal to tibia by 1/4”
Structure WB AP
Phalanges, MT, cuneiform, cuboid, navicular
Distal talus and calcaneus
Related ST
BTP WB AP
Tmt and navicular-cuneiform jt space open
Rotation/ I/E WB AP
Main: space btwn 1st and 2nd Mt base free of SI and medial-intermediate cuneiform joint may/may not be open
1/3 talus SI on calcaneus
Other: MT bases 2-5 somewhat SI
MT heads clear of SI
Some tarsal overlap
Structures WB lat
Phalanges, MT, tarsals, entire ankle joint, related ST
CR and CP WB lat
Cr: perp/HB
CP: base of 5th Mt
Optimal positioning WB lat
MT nearly SI except 5th
Ankle joint clear
Distal fibula seen in post 1/2 tibia
