Pour que le report sur la surface de projection se fasse avec un minimum d’altérations, il convient de situer le centre de projection en fonction de la région à représenter. On distingue entre : l'aspect polaire ou direct : le pivot de la projection est l’un des pôles; l'aspect transverse ou méridien : le pivot est un point situé sur l’équateur [et] l'aspect oblique : le pivot est un point quelconque (ni un des pôles, ni un point sur l’équateur).  1, record 1, French, - aspect%20polaire

Ischemic necrosis of the femoral capital epiphysis is characterized initially by dense areas appearing in the femoral head. These areas may take the form of a bandlike linear opacity along the articular surface, or may follow the epiphyseal line. Widening of the epiphyseal cartilage plate may then occur. Spherical segmental opacities then appear, giving the so-called "snow-cap" appearance. [From GBONE, 1980, p. 184.]  3, record 2, English, - snowcap%20appearance
