i am in need of help, while my collegue was taking a skyline knee the cassette fell forward onto the patients leg , now the patient is making a formalcomplaint against her, now my manager wants proof that a skyline kee can be done with patient AP and knee flexed with patient holding cassette(our hospital does not have cassette holders and our patients are99% geriatrics so unable to lie prone)
is there anyone out there who also does knees in this method?

Try using a wedge sponge and a pillow to hold up the cassette... if that doesnt work use a xray tech's best friend.... TAPE!!!
Hope this helps.

Well, if the tape doesn't work, use sandbags, they work great for cross-table laterals and skyline projections of the knee!
