Answer to Question 1

lateromedial

Rationale: Lateral weight-bearing images of the foot require the image receptor to be placed between the feet so the patient can safely stand for the image. A lateromedial projection of the part would be acquired.

Answer to Question 2

enteric

Rationale: Enteric precautions are used to prevent the spread of infection though contact with fecal material. AFB or Acid Fast Bacillus is a type of bacterium seen in TB patients.
