Answer to Question 1

B
Moxibustion is a Southeast Asian treatment for enuresis where a small area of the skin is burned. Inquiring in a nonjudgmental way may gain the information that is needed and not make the parents defensive.

Answer to Question 2

B
The patient should always be assessed for allergies to iodine before administration of contrast media.
