The document provides guidelines for taking radiographs of the upper limb. It describes the proper positioning of the patient and image receptor for dorsi-palmar and anterior oblique hand views. For dorsi-palmar views, the hand should be pronated on the image receptor with fingers extended and separated. For anterior oblique views, the hand is externally rotated 45 degrees and supported on an angled pad. Correct centering and angulation of the x-ray beam is emphasized to visualize bones and joints clearly while avoiding overlap or under-rotation. Adherence to positioning protocols helps ensure high quality images for accurate diagnosis.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
2. Introduction
Although radiographic examinations of the upper limb are routine a high
standard of radiography must be maintained.
The importance of registering the correct right or left marker at the time of
the exposure cannot be overemphasised nor can the importance of
recording the correct patient identification and date of the examination.
To ensure maximum radiation protection when using computed
radiography (CR) cassettes, the patient should be seated at the side or end
of the table with the lower limbs and gonads away from the primary beam,
i.e. with the legs to the side of the table not under it and the beam should
be collimated within the margins of the image receptor
4. 1)Dorsi-palmar (DP)
Position of patient and image receptor
The patient is seated alongside the table with the affected arm
nearest to the table.
The forearm is pronated and placed on the table with the palmer
surface of the hand in contact with the image receptor.
The fingers are separated and extended but relaxed to ensure that
they remain in contact with the image receptor.
The wrist is adjusted so that the radial and ulna styloid processes are
equidistant from the image receptor.
A sandbag is placed over the lower forearm for immobilization.
5. Direction and Centring of X-ray Beam
The collimated vertical beam is
centered over the head of the
3rd metacarpal.
6. Essential image characteristics
The image should demonstrate
all the phalanges, including the
soft-tissue fingertips, the carpal
and metacarpal bones, and the
distal end of the radius and
ulna.
The interphalangeal and
metacarpo-phalangeal and
carpo-metacarpal joints should
be demonstrated clearly.
No rotation.
8. 2.Anterior oblique (DP oblique)
Position of patient and image receptor
From the basic postero-anterior position, the hand is externally
rotated 45° with the fingers extended.
The fingers should be separated slightly and the hand supported on
a 45° non-opaque pad.
A sandbag is placed over the lower end of the forearm for
immobilisation.
9. Direction and centering of the X-ray beam
The collimated vertical beam is
centred over the head of the 5th
metacarpal.
The tube is then angled so that
the central ray passes through
the head of the 3rd metacarpal,
enabling a reduction in the size
of the field
10. Essential image characteristics
The image should demonstrate
all the phalanges, including the
soft tissue of the fingertips, the
carpal and metacarpal bones
and the distal end of the radius
and ulna.
The correct degree of rotation
has been achieved when the
heads of the 1st and 2nd
metacarpals are seen separated
whilst those of the 4th and 5th
are just superimposed
11. Common faults and remedies
Over rotation will project the
metacarpals and digits on top of
each other
Under rotation will fail to open
out the metacarpals.
