This brief tutorial discusses musculoskeletal X-ray anatomy in general terms, and introduces some important concepts regarding musculoskeletal X-ray interpretation. Knowledge of normal bone, joint and soft tissue appearances enables accurate description of abnormalities seen on X-ray.
A radiographic image is composed of a 'map' of X-rays that have either passed freely through the body or have been variably attenuated (absorbed or scattered) by anatomical structures. The denser the tissue, the more X-rays are attenuated. For example, X-rays are attenuated more by bone than by lung tissue. Describing densities.
