When using the Axiolateral oblique projection to demonstrate the mandible How is the head positioned to demonstrate the symphysis of the mandible?

Positioning TMG SINUS MANDIBLE.

What CR angle is required for the axiolateral Schuller method projection of the Tmjs?

The Schuller Method requires the skull to be in a true lateral position. The CR should be 25-30 degrees caudad. 1/2" anterior & 2" superior to the upside of the EAM. Which projection of the TMJ is the Axiolateral oblique projection?
