Answer to Question 1

hematopoietic system

Rationale: The hematopoietic system is responsible for producing blood elements and is the most radiosensitive system in the body. Whole body doses of 1-10 Gy or 100-1000 rad will affect this system, which can cause infection or hemorrhage.

Answer to Question 2

IOML

Rationale: The IOML is aligned parallel to the IR by having the patient hyperextend their head and neck back to rest upon the vertex.
