Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
The kidney is usually approached posteriorly with the patient in lateral position. The bed is flexed until the flank muscles become tense.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Used most often in adults is the size 21 Fr with a right-angle examination telescope for routine inspection of the bladder. Size 24 or 26 Fr is used to accommodate larger instruments and catheters that cannot be used through size 21 Fr.
