-The Lateral Chest Radiograph Is Often Made as a Second-Level

-The lateral chest radiograph is often made as a second-level decision, based on findings obtained from the PA view, because the lateral view:

A) Incurs more radiation exposure and less useful clinical information
B) Demonstrates the same location of lesions as the PA view
C) Demonstrates anatomic structures already seen on the lateral view of the thoracic spine
D) Incurs less radiation and less resolution than the PA view
