Answer to Question 1

AP oblique with medial rotation

Rationale: The AP oblique ankle will demonstrate the base of the 5th metatarsal better than the AP projection. Rotation will show the tuberosity on the 5th metatarsal.

Answer to Question 2

involve two or more technologists to ensure patient safety

Rationale: Two or more technologists should be involved in a patient transfer to and from a cart to ensure patient safety regardless of how much they can ambulate.
