Answer to Question 1

minimum of 5 minutes

Rationale: The minimum wait time for a decub position is five minutes, allowing time for the free air to rise or the fluid to sink.

Answer to Question 2

LML

Rationale: The lip meatal line is positioned perpendicular to the IR. This will position the entire orbital base closer to the IR when using the LML.
