FUNDAMENTAL 2

THE FOUNDATIONS OF PRECISION

The Fundamentals II Seminar will give you all of the tools necessary to accurately analyze the Advanced Orthogonal X-ray series and convert the measurements into precise coordinates and table placement factors for the correction.

Doctors will learn:

• An introduction to the Advanced Orthogonal analysis templates and digital software (“20/20”)
• Accuracy in x-ray analysis, and why it matters
• Cross Referencing the anatomy to determine the diagnostic quality of the film
• The occipital condyle radius, and how it affects patient positioning
• The 8 reference points for constructing the Atlas Frontal Plane line
• The 10 reference points for constructing the Atlas Horizontal Plane line
• How to modify the measurement of the Horizontal Cephalic Line on an aberrant skull
• Which landmarks are used in constructing the cervical spine line
• How to accurately locate the Atlas transverse process
• The Advanced Orthogonal x-ray measurements, including
• Atlas-Cephalic Displacement (ACD)
• Cervical Spine/Atlas Angle (CS)
• Atlas Frontal Plane Line (AFP)
• Condylar/Axial Circles (C/A)
• Atlas Horizontal Rotation (AHRy)
• Condylar Aberrancy Analysis (CAB)
• Measurement of the radius of the Axis superior surfaces and occipital condyle inferior surfaces and how that affects the biomechanics of correction
• Zoning procedures for construction the Center Skill Line on the Frontal and Horizontal Projections (FCL & HCL)
• How to identify cephalic, condylar, atlas, and axis aberrancies and what to do about them
• Identifying the shape of the mastoid
• Calculating the Z and Y adjusting vectors
• The biomechanical factors contributing to correct table placement



This is the second of three Advanced Orthogonal Fundamentals needed to become a Certified Advanced Orthogonist.
