Quick reference

QuestionWhat to expect
Which projections are confirmed?AP, lateral, and axial hip or pelvis work.
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?Ilium, ischium, pubis, sacrum, coccyx, L3-L5, right femur, and left femur.
What setup is used?Wall bucky, table bucky, and tabletop detector workflows.
What movement is included?Internal and external femur rotation at both hips, plus patient craniocaudal and mediolateral adjustment.
What bone variations exist?Supine healthy bones, supine collum femoris fracture, supine ossis pubis fracture, and standing healthy bones.
Known limitationNo known limitations are currently listed for this simulation.

Projection expectations

The projections listed on this page are confirmed examples for this simulation module. They do not define the full limit of what can be attempted. The simulator creates an image from the selected anatomy, patient position, joint movement, detector setup, tube position, collimation, and exposure settings, so other projections may be possible when the setup supports them.

Imaging capabilities

CapabilityDetails
Radiographic tubeFull range of motion, including vertical, horizontal, tilt, and rotation. The cassette can be rotated, and collimation size is adjustable.
Detector methodsThe tube locks and detents to the wall and table bucky, enabling standard bucky tray operation. The detector can be used with both bucky and tabletop positioning.
Simulated exposuresConfirmed support for AP, lateral, and axial views. Additional views may be possible depending on patient range of motion and available bones.
