Answer to Question 1

the right SI joint

Rationale: Anterior oblique positions will open up the SI joint closest to the IR or side down. The RAO will image the right SI joint.

Answer to Question 2

gestational period

Rationale: The gestational period of the developing fetus is most radiosensitive. During this period, there is a great number of immature and nonspecialized cells.
