Answer to Question 1

A DLPM beam enters on the dorsolateral and exits on the palmar medial aspect of the limb. A
DMPL beam enters the dorsomedial and exits the palmar lateral aspect of the limb.

Answer to Question 2

Horses can be encouraged to maintain normal weight bearing on the limb of radiographic
interest via elevating the fore or hind limb on the contralateral side. A modest amount of
pressure applied to either the knee or hock on the limb of interest will also encourage the
horse to remain weight bearing. Finally, when horses are required to stand on a positioning
block, concurrently elevating the contralateral forelimb on second block can help to minimize
motion

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
