Answer to Question 1

attempt a swimmer's lateral

Rationale: A swimmer's lateral will use a directed CR to the level of C7-T1 to enter MCP. This centering will attempt to better penetrate this thicker area on the patient in order to demonstrate the lower cervical vertebrae and upper thoracic vertebrae.

Answer to Question 2

monitor performance

Rationale: The Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers have a pattern used to check monitor sharpness, distortion, and luminescence.
