Answer to Question 1

lateromedial

Rationale: To safely image the weight bearing feet, the lateromedial projection is recommended. The image receptor is placed in between the patient's feet, ensuring the patient can safely stand and evenly distribute their weight.

Answer to Question 2

60 SID

Rationale: The AP or PA oblique projections of the c-spine could apply distance range of 40-72 SID. However, the increased SID is recommended to compensate for part magnification.
