Unit III 7
Body Position Terms
Describe the overall placement of the body
– Erect "upright"
Position when the sagittal and coronal planes of the body are perpendicular to the horizon
– Recumbent "lying down"
Position when the transverse plane of the body is perpendicular to the horizon

Unit III 8
Body Position Terms
decubitus vs. recumbent
– general meanings are the
same "LYING DOWN"
– but in radiography,
decubitus has a special
meaning
– DECUBITUS
patient is lying down &
the x-ray beam is
parallel to the horizon

Unit III 9
Erect Positions
Surface of body closest to the film used to give a more specific description
Examples:– Posterior erect -- patient
is standing with the posterior surface of the body next to the cassette
– Left lateral erect --patient is standing with the left side of the body next to the cassette
Left lateral erect position

Unit III 11
Recumbent Positions
Supine (posterior recumbent
position)
– Lying down on the back
Prone
(anterior recumbent position)
– Lying face down
xx lateral recumbent– lying down on the xx side

Unit III 15
Decubitus Positions
Ventral decubitus
– patient is prone & a horizontal beam is used
Dorsal decubitus
– patient is supine & a horizontal beam is used
Left lateral decubitus
– patient lying on the left lateral side & a horizontal beam is used

Unit III 16
Oblique (Erect or Recumbent)
Position when the body is rotated so that the MS plane is neither ^ nor to the film but at an angle
Exact position is indicated by the surface closest to the film and the angle of rotation
May be erect or recumbent
abbreviations:– RPO, LPO, RAO, LAO 45° RPO

Unit III 18
PROJECTION Refers to the path the
beam takes through partAnteroposterior projection
(AP)Beam enters the front surface
and exits the back surface of the part
Posteroanterior projection (PA)Beam enters the back and
exits the front of the part
AP projection in supine position
PA projection in prone position

Unit III 19
Lateral Projections
Normally the positioning terminology is used rather than projection
– torso and head
Right to left lateral projection
Left to right lateral projection
– extremities
Mediolateral projection
Lateromedial projection L lateral erect positionR to L lateral projection

Unit III 20
Oblique Projections
Normally the positioning terminology is used
– example
RPO position = right anterior to right posterior projection (oblique AP)
