Answer to Question 1

internal rotation

Rationale: Considering anatomical position, rotation of the arm medially until the posterior surface is in contact with the outer thigh is internal rotation; epicondyles would be perpendicular to the image receptor.

Answer to Question 2

mediolateral

Rationale: The mediolateral projection or lateral position will best demonstrate placement of a foreign object, determining if it affects only soft tissue or involves bone.
