Answer to Question 1

direct DR capture

Rationale: Direct capture technology eliminates the need for a scintillator as the design of the flat panel includes a layer of selenium, allowing less diffusion of electrons which will not affect spatial resolution.

Answer to Question 2

mediolateral

Rationale: The lateral position will demonstrate anterior to posterior displacement of a fracture or dislocation.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
