Answer to Question 1

T7

Rationale: Oblique projections of the chest aim to show the entire lung field from the apices to the costophrenic angles. The obliquity projections of the chest will shift the midline structures of the chest to demonstrate the bifurcation of the trachea and the right or left bronchial tree.

Answer to Question 2

workload

Rationale: In efforts to design the structure of a radiographic room, the Workload (W), has to be considered. Workload is a configuration of how much time a unit is producing radiation in a work week.
