Answer to Question 1

tilt

Rationale: Tilt and rotation are the two most common positioning errors with skull positioning. Tilt results when the vertex is tilted closer to one shoulder than the other.

Answer to Question 2

total filtration

Rationale: X-ray beams are polyenergetic. In efforts to remove the low energies from the beam that contribute to patient skin dose, filtration is necessary.
