About the Life/form® Imaging
Fracture Simulator
An exciting training device designed
to aid both radiology educators, as
well as radiology students. Educators
will be able to enhance hands-on
training of identifying radiographic
pathology with a tool that will encour-
age students to utilize their critical
thinking skills. Students will be excited
to image a body part that will chal-
lenge their ability to create optimal
images of a bone that demonstrates
pathology common to the upper
extremity. This life-like upper extrem-
ity is uniquely designed to permit
the user access to the fracture site
in which various fracture types can
be easily interchanged. Students
can quickly visualize the difference
between a spiral fracture and a splin-
ter fracture within minutes of taking
the radiographic exposures. The sim-
ulator is designed to allow students
the capability of rotating the arm easi-
ly to place the humerus in routine and
special projections common to imag-
ing with protocols. With the Life/form®
Imaging Fracture Simulator, students
will be able to practice positioning
skills, technical skills, and critical
thinking skills as they produce radio-
graphic images that will make learning
anatomy, pathology, and image pro-
duction an exciting educational expe-
rience. Exposure techniques for the
simulator are in line with techniques
typical to an adult humerus. Students
will be able to visualize, create, and
reduce bone (anterior/posterior) dis-
placement. Imaging concepts will
become easy to understand as

Care of the Trainer
1. Avoid prolonged exposure to
sunlight or excessive heat.
2. Everyday soil may be removed
from the arm with a few drops of
mild detergent on a wet cloth. Do
not submerge or launder the arm.
Bones can be washed in soapy
water.
Using the Trainer
1. Remove the self-fastening straps
and open the foam arm.
2. Select a fracture set and place it
into the cavity in the back half of
the arm. The pieces may be
arranged to show varying degrees
of displacement. (See Figure 1.)
3. To represent an open fracture,
position the distal section of the
humerus so that the bone pro-
trudes out the side. (See Figure 2.)
4. Replace the front half of the arm
and secure it with the straps. The
arm can now be positioned as
desired for radiography.

students can see how changing the
position and/or projection of the X-ray
beam alters the perspective of the
anatomy visualized. Included with the
simulator are two interchangeable
fracture types (spiral and splinter).
