following should occur?
Give this one a try later!
The CR should be centered 3 inches (8 cm) below the jugular notch.
A study of a prosthetic hip demonstrates that the end of the prosthesis is cut off on
the AP projection, but the entire device is demonstrated on the lateral projection.
What should the technologist do next?
Give this one a try later!
Repeat the AP projection only.
