Answer to Question 1

Merchant method

Rationale: The Merchant method is a bilateral method to image the patella in profile and the patellofemoral joints. The legs must be relaxed and flexed approximately 40 degrees off the end of the table. The beam is directed superior to inferior to pass through the patellofemoral space.

Answer to Question 2

object to image distance

Rationale: Increased object to image distance creates magnification of a structure, reducing recorded detail.
