RAD 110 FINAL EXAM ACTUAL EXAM 2026 | ALL QUESTIONS AND CORRECT
ANSWERS (VERIFIED ANSWERS) | UPDATED VERSION | BRAND NEW VERSION!
Question 1
On which specific date were X-rays discovered by Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen?
A) October 12, 1492
B) November 8, 1895
C) July 4, 1776
D) December 25, 1901
E) January 1, 1900
Correct Answer: B) November 8, 1895
Rationale: Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen discovered x-rays while working with a Crookes tube
in his lab in Würzburg, Germany. This date is celebrated annually in the radiologic
sciences as the birth of medical imaging. His discovery earned him the first Nobel Prize in
Physics in 1901.
Question 2
Who is credited with the invention of the first clinically useful fluoroscope?
A) Wilhelm Röntgen
B) Marie Curie
C) Thomas Edison
D) Nikola Tesla
E) Albert Einstein
Correct Answer: C) Thomas Edison
Rationale: While Röntgen discovered x-rays, Thomas Edison developed the fluoroscope,
which allowed for real-time moving images. He stopped his research into x-rays, however,
after his assistant suffered severe radiation injuries, emphasizing the early lack of
understanding regarding radiation safety.
Question 3
Who was the first American to die as a direct result of complications from excessive radiation
exposure?
A) Thomas Edison
B) Clarence Dally
, 2
C) Wilhelm Röntgen
) Marie Curie
E) Pierre Curie
Correct Answer: B) Clarence Dally
Rationale: Clarence Dally was Thomas Edison’s assistant and a glassblower. He frequently
tested x-ray tubes using his own hands. After developing severe radiation burns and
undergoing multiple amputations, he died in 1904. His death was a turning point that
forced the scientific community to recognize the biological dangers of x-rays.
Question 4
Which process ensures that a radiologic technology school complies with specific standards of
performance to assess high-quality operations?
A) Certification
B) Licensure
C) Accreditation
D) Registration
E) Categorization
Correct Answer: C) Accreditation
Rationale: Accreditation is a voluntary peer-review process that evaluates the educational
quality of a program or institution. In radiography, the Joint Review Committee on
Education in Radiologic Technology (JRCERT) is the primary body responsible for
accrediting educational programs to ensure they meet professional standards.
Question 5
Which organization is responsible for the "certification" process, which deals with the
demonstration of minimum competencies of professional skills and knowledge?
A) ASRT
B) JRCERT
C) ARRT
D) NCSRT
E) HIPAA
, 3
Correct Answer: C) ARRT
Rationale: The American Registry of Radiologic Technologists (ARRT) provides
certification. It involves passing a national examination to prove that an individual
possesses the minimum knowledge and skills required to practice safely and effectively as a
radiologic technologist.
Question 6
Which professional organization represents the general welfare of its members through
education, scholarships, and the publishing of journals?
A) ARRT
B) JRCERT
C) ASRT
D) OSHA
E) CDC
Correct Answer: C) ASRT
Rationale: The American Society of Radiologic Technologists (ASRT) is a professional
membership organization. Unlike the ARRT (which certifies) or the JRCERT (which
accredits), the ASRT focuses on advocacy, continuing education, and setting the scope of
practice for the profession.
Question 7
Information, knowledge, and theoretical concepts are classified under which learning domain?
A) Affective
B) Psychomotor
C) Cognitive
D) Spiritual
E) Social
Correct Answer: C) Cognitive
Rationale: The cognitive domain involves mental skills and the acquisition of knowledge. In
radiography education, this refers to the classroom portion of the curriculum where
, 4
students learn anatomy, physics, and positioning theory before applying it in a clinical
setting.
Question 8
Values, attitudes, emotions, and feelings belong to which learning domain?
A) Cognitive
B) Affective
C) Psychomotor
D) Physical
E) Intellectual
Correct Answer: B) Affective
Rationale: The affective domain deals with the manner in which we deal with things
emotionally, such as feelings, values, appreciation, and motivations. In healthcare, this
domain is vital for developing empathy and professional bedside manner.
Question 9
What is the primary factor that establishes the behaviors, norms, and values of a specific group
of people?
A) Diversity
B) Globalization
C) Culture
D) Personal Bias
E) Assimilation
Correct Answer: C) Culture
Rationale: Culture is the integrated pattern of human knowledge, belief, and behavior. It
includes the shared attitudes, values, goals, and practices that characterize an institution or
organization, ultimately dictating how individuals within that group interact with the
world.
Question 10
The growth of business and technology to a global or worldwide scale is known as:
A) Biculturalism
