Answer to Question 1

AP and lateromedial

Rationale: Post-op patients will have limited ability to ambulate due to anesthesia and pain level. Two views 90 degrees apart are required. AP will be acquired and then a cross-table or horizontal beam approach will be necessary for the lateral. Placement of the grid should be on the medial surface of the patient's leg and the beam should be directed lateral to medial.

Answer to Question 2

4 feet from the workspace

Rationale: Safelights should be positioned 4 feet from the work surface.

Did you know?

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
