One trick of the trade is to get your patient to roll their shoulders forward. This will move the scapula off the lung fields in the same way it does for a PA. It has the added benefit of stopping the patient from leaning back when they take a big breath in. I have been called into the radiologist reporting room because they needed to clarify that the image was in face AP and not PA
