Quick reference
| Question | What to expect |
|---|---|
| Which projections are confirmed? | AP, oblique, and lateral ankle views. |
| Can users try other projections? | Yes. These are confirmed examples. Other projections may be possible when the simulated setup supports them. |
| What anatomy is included? | Tibia, fibula, tarsal bones, metatarsal bones, and phalanges. |
| What setup is used? | Free-plating workflow with the patient supine on the table. |
| What movement is included? | Foot plantarflexion and dorsiflexion, hip internal and external rotation, and patient craniocaudal and mediolateral adjustment. |
| What bone variations exist? | Healthy bone version, lateral malleolus fracture version, and medial malleolus fracture version. |
| Known limitation | Internal ankle rotation is limited, which may affect views requiring medial rotation. |

Imaging capabilities
| Capability | Details |
|---|---|
| Radiographic tube | Full range of motion, including vertical, horizontal, tilt, and rotation. The cassette can be rotated, and collimation size is adjustable. |
| Detector methods | The detector is set up for free plating because the patient is supine on the table. |
| Simulated exposures | Confirmed support for AP, oblique, and lateral views. Additional views may be possible depending on patient range of motion and available bones. |
