kVp: 76
EI : 1705
DI: 7.5
Changes to be made: C1-C7/T1 demonstrated. Rami of mandible not superimposed over C1/C2. No rotation present. Collimation needed to be brought in more to not include the jaw and skull. Marker present.

mAs: 20
kVp: 75
EI : 1333
DI: 1.9
Changes to be made: CR 3-4 inches below the juglar notch. Collimation needs to be brought in more on 4 sides. No rotation or tilt present. CR is positioned slightly too far to the left. Vertebral bodies well penetrated. Marker present.
