Answer to Question 1

anterior nasal spine

Rationale: The anterior nasal spine located where the cartilage of the nose meets the upper lip should be included, as a blow to the nose could include fracture to anterior nasal spine.

Answer to Question 2

leg is internally rotated 3-5 degrees

Rationale: For the AP non-trauma distal femur, the leg is rotated 3-5 degrees medially or until the femoral condyles are parallel to the plane of the image receptor.
