We recently added videos on the Inverse Square and Direct Square laws, they have some really good shortcuts that work really well. Check them out, let us know if there are specific positions or subjects you would like top see new videos on!
Hey! Would you have some information on how to position for and get a perfect image every time with the knutsson view? There's such limited information. Our practice has a broken free detector, so we're using the upright bucky as our detector and angling out tube like the merchant view PA. Pt is supine with their knees slightly bent and feet still resting on the bed. What do you look for when picking tube angle on these kinds of views? Cheers!
I don't know about a perfect image every time, but I do know how it is done. A good start is that Merchant view, which is a modification of the of the Knutsson view. The primary difference is that the knees are bent more on the Knutssen view, therefore you have to angle more as well. You can use the Merchant board, you simply adjust the board so that the knees are bent 45°, the tube is angled 30° caudally, make sure the cassette is angled so it is perpendicular to the CR. You should strap the claves tog ether using Velcro, a belt, or even some form of an elastic bandage or ace wrap. the only difference on a Merchant view is the knees are bent 40°. I do have an old article that gives some really good information about it, even a way to do it if you don't have a merchant board, using a chair and a foot stool with a handle. Let me know if you would like a copy of that.
Are there specific positions you would like to see? We are putting out some in Inverse Square Law, Direct Square Law and a few other, but we are gearing up for more positioning videos too.
Nice and simple
We want to make them easy! Any other positions or subjects you would like to see? We are going to start doing more soon.

Is this merchant technique?
Yes, that is the Merchant position. The Merchant board may look different, there a few different kinds.
Nice
Thank you!

1:40 never do this
Why
Why? We do this on a regular basis, it is, at least for me, much more consistent than the settegast.
