Are you studying for your radiology exams? Do you feel overwhelmed by hundreds of anatomical positions, exposure factors, and technical terms? You are not alone. Radiologic technology programs are demanding. Every test requires sharp precision, quick recall, and deep understanding.
This Test Bank for Textbook of Radiographic Positioning and Related Anatomy (11th Edition) by John Lampignano and Leslie E. Kendrick is your ultimate study companion. It is designed to help you master complex concepts faster, practice realistic exam questions, and walk into your test room with total confidence.

5 Sample Questions with Answers and Rationales
Try these sample questions to see the exact layout and quality of this test bank.
Question 1
Which projection best demonstrates the scaphoid bone of the wrist free of superimposition?
- A) PA wrist with radial deviation
- B) PA wrist with ulnar deviation
- C) AP oblique wrist with lateral rotation
- D) Lateral wrist
Correct Answer: B) PA wrist with ulnar deviation
Rationale: Ulnar deviation opens up the interspaces between the carpal bones on the lateral side of the wrist. This action elongates and clearly shows the scaphoid bone without foreshortening or heavy overlap from adjacent carpals.
Question 2
Where should the central ray (CR) be directed for an AP projection of the chest on an adult patient?
- A) Level of T3
- B) Level of T7
- C) Level of L2
- D) At the xiphoid process
Correct Answer: B) Level of T7
Rationale: For a standard chest radiograph, the central ray is centered to the inferior angle of the scapula, which corresponds to the level of the T7 vertebra. This ensures full coverage of both lung apices and the costophrenic angles.
Question 3
What position best demonstrates the right retrogastric space during an Upper GI examination?
- A) Right Lateral
- B) Left Lateral
- C) AP Supine
- D) PA Prone
Correct Answer: A) Right Lateral
Rationale: The lateral projection of the stomach (specifically the right lateral position) provides a clear view of the retrogastric space, the duodenal loop, and the posterior wall of the stomach.
Question 4
Which of the following modifications is required for a trauma chest radiograph when the patient cannot sit or stand upright?
- A) Perform a prone position chest radiograph
- B) Perform a left lateral decubitus chest radiograph
- C) Use an AP supine position and reduce the SID
- D) Omit the examination completely
Correct Answer: B) Perform a left lateral decubitus chest radiograph
Rationale: If a patient cannot stand or sit upright to check for air-fluid levels, a lateral decubitus position (specifically left lateral decubitus to place the heart under the stomach bubble) should be used with a horizontal beam.
Question 5
What is the minimum recommended distance for the central ray to the image receptor (SID) for a standard chest radiograph?
- A) 40 inches (102 cm)
- B) 48 inches (122 cm)
- C) 72 inches (183 cm)
- D) 60 inches (152 cm)
Correct Answer: C) 72 inches (183 cm)
Rationale: A 72-inch (183 cm) SID reduces heart magnification and increases spatial resolution, giving a more accurate representation of thoracic anatomy.
