A radiographic image of the Aorta is called an aortogram.
The points of measurement for a lateral skull radiograph is the high point of the zygomatic arch.
A radiograph is an image produced using radiography, such as an x ray. An example of this term in a sentence would be, "The doctor carefully examined the radiograph of the patient's shattered knee before suggesting a course of treatment."
Well, darling, the uncoiling of the aorta is when the main artery in your body decides to straighten out instead of maintaining its usual curved shape. It's like your aorta is saying, "I'm tired of being all twisted up, I'm going to stretch out and relax for a bit." It can happen due to various reasons like aging, high blood pressure, or just wanting a change of scenery.

Overlapping of teeth in a radiograph, assuming no unusual malocclusion, is caused by improper horizontal angulation of the x-ray beam.
On an extraoral radiograph, the entire jaw and skull are seen. This type of radiograph is helpful in assessing overall bone structure, joint alignment, and general dental health. It can also be used to identify impacted teeth and potential bone abnormalities.
A periapical radiograph is used to visualize the entire tooth and surrounding bone for diagnosing conditions like tooth decay, infections, and bone loss around the tooth. On the other hand, a cephalometric radiograph is used to assess the skull structure, teeth alignment, facial proportions, and growth patterns, making it useful in orthodontic treatment planning.

Air in sinuses will show up on a radiograph as black, but fluid will be cloudy or white (opaque). This helps the radiologist to identify fluid in the sinuses.
