An OFA study can be conducted on a dog that is _____ old.

You are taking a VD Hip-Extended view of a canine pelvis. You should collimate caudally to the:
patellas
When imaging a forelimb or hindlimb, it is generally a good idea to also image the contralateral (normal) limb.
true
Most canine pelvis views require a grid because of the greater thickness.
true
Identify the routine views of the tarsus, metatarsus, and digits of the hindfoot. (Select all that apply.)
Lateral
Plantarodorsal
dentify this artifact: (it has a milky appearance)
film fog
Where should the central ray be on a ventrodorsal view of a cat's abdomen?
2 - 3 fingerbreadths caudal to the umbilicus Correct
You finish processing a film with an automatic processor and you notice that the film has a pinkish, milky appearance. What caused this?
Exhausted fixer
Digital imaging (DR) eliminates which step from the imaging process
processing
Which view allows for evaluation of the ulner anconeal process?
Lateral elbow hyperflexed
All of the following indicate that your lateral abdominal radiograph is positioned properly (not rotated), except:
Wings of the ilium are symmetrical
Identify this artifact: (it has a milky appearance)
Exhausted fixer
You are taking a lateral image of the left humerus. Where will you center the beam?
Midshaft of the humerus
When taking a caudocranial (CdCr) view of the shoulder, the label should be placed:
Laterally
Which view allows for evaluation of the supratrochlear foramen?
Oblique elbow
Identify the cranial border for a lateral abdominal radiograph on a dog
One inch cranial to the xiphoid
You are taking a lateral image of the left humerus. Where will you measure your patient?
Proximal humerus
You are taking a VD Hip-Extended view of a canine pelvis. You should collimate cranially to the:
Tip of the wings of the ilium
All of the following indicate that your VD abdominal radiograph is position properly (not rotated), except:
obturator foramina are superimposed
In an automatic processor the second step of processing film is
fixer
Every time a roller comes into contact with the film emulsion in an automatic processor, it has the potential to imprint an artifact on the image.
