Answer to Question 1

PA upright

Rationale: Air-fluid levels will be best demonstrated with upright positioning or horizontal beam use during decubitus positions. Supine imaging will not allow a fluid line to develop. Lateral chest imaging isn't the most ideal to isolate fluid in a single lung because of right and left lung superimposition.

Answer to Question 2

involuntary motion

Rationale: Involuntary motion is motion a patient cannot control, bowel peristalsis and heart motion are examples.
