Markers are to be place anatomically correct (left marker... left side of patient), on the lateral aspect of the part (ap, pa, axial, etc) or on the anterior aspect of the part (laterals). That's the textbook answer... Hope it helps..

Follow that text book answer, plus put it straight and right side up. Make it look professional!

PS This is nationwide for marker placement, lateral side of body lateral placement like Bryan M said. But don't get anal as long as the Radiologist knows what side it is and the marker is on the film you did good
