Answer to Question 1

direct DR capture

Rationale: Direct capture technology eliminates the need for a scintillator as the design of the flat panel includes a layer of selenium, allowing less diffusion of electrons which will not affect spatial resolution.

Answer to Question 2

mediolateral

Rationale: The lateral position will demonstrate anterior to posterior displacement of a fracture or dislocation.
