Quick reference

QuestionWhat to expect
Which projections are confirmed?AP, oblique, and lateral foot 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 recumbent on the table.
What movement is included?Foot plantarflexion/dorsiflexion for lateral body position, hip internal/external rotation for lateral body position, and patient craniocaudal and mediolateral adjustment.
What bone variations exist?Healthy bone version and 5th metatarsal avulsion fracture variation.
Known limitationNo known limitations for this simulation as of v1.9.0.

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 detector is set up for free plating because the patient is recumbent on the table.
Confirmed projectionsConfirmed examples include AP, oblique, and lateral views. They do not define the full limit of what can be attempted. Other projections may be possible when the simulated setup supports them.
