Answer to Question 1

mediolateral

Rationale: Mediolateral projection of the wrist or hand should superimpose the radial and ulnar styloid process; both located on the distal radius and ulna.

Answer to Question 2

attempt to move the tubing out of the way during the x-ray without removal

Rationale: Patients on oxygen should remain on oxygen during transport and imaging. Tubing should removed from the lung field as best as possible to prevent artifacts.
