warning

"Anterior-posterior malalignment of the talar domes is due to over- or under-rotation of the foot. To adjust this, check the heel is not raised too far, or alternately, the toes. If the patient cannot correct this position, it can be aided with a small wedge sponge. In trauma, it may not be possible to position the patient as above, in these cases the same principles can be applied with a modified horizontal beam view. The patient can remain supine with an image receptor placed vertically adjacent to the lateral aspect of the upright foot; the X-ray beam is directed horizontally, centred 2.5 cm inferior to the prominence of the medial malleolus of the distal tibia."

Line 52:560 · Check the abbreviation form against the style guide: 'X-ray'.
