Can you explain how to determine the correct CEPHALAD angle when doing a TRAUMA (patient in a neck collar)skull Caldwell view? If you typically use the OML but can't adjust the patient's neck, how do you get the right angle? I've seen videos that say just add 15° to the 7° difference that exists between the OML & IOML. They angle 22° cephalad.
I typically line up the laser or centering light to align with the OML and that would be my straight AP view. If I do a Caldwell, I'd just angle 15 degrees cephalic from whatever degree mark the tube is at when aligned to the OML. I'll be uploading a video demo in a few weeks as well.
But does angling an additional 15° cephalad doesn't throw the orbits up too high when you still want the petrous ridges in the lower one third of the orbits?
@@Afrancis2774 No because in traditional positioning, you're still angling 15 degrees relative to the OML. The only difference is the OML is not going to be perpendicular to the IR in a trauma situation, so you need to find out how many degrees it lies from perpendicular and adjust 15 from that point.
@@TopicsInRadiography I don't know the problem might be in me or something... But, I think you sometimes tend to not use your purely natural and simple voice... maybe making it more hyponasal or something Anyways, keep the great work up!
Thank you for the video, helped me a lot with my studies!

Thank you for responding! I'll be looking out for the video!!

What is then difference In cardwel and hass method?
So useful
Very helpful , thank you
Nice
V good
please use your simple and normal voice without any modifications
I'm not using any voice modifications. Curious how it sounds on your end.

@@mzziaey LOL nope that's just my voice. I'm not intentionally doing anything with it - just talking as I normally do.
