Answer:

The radiographer shall keep the patient in dorsal recumbent position with feet elevated.

Explanation:

Dorsal recumbent position is the one in which the patient lies on back with knees and thighs both flexed. the patient experiencing syncope may have a fall in blood pressure because increased diameter of blood vessels and decreased heart rate. A deficiency of oxygen supply to the brain causes syncope and fainting. Hence, placing the patient in dorso recumbent position with feet elevated improves blood flow to the brain.
