Explanation:

For question 22, in radiography, the thinnest part of the wedge - filter is placed over the less - dense part of the patient to balance the radiation exposure. A Thoraeus filter is not specifically for very thick body parts. For question 23, total beam filtration is the sum of inherent (already present in the x - ray tube) and added (extra filters placed) filtration.

Answer:

1. The thinnest portion of the wedge filter is placed over the less dense part of the patient
2. inherent and added
