First Shift Memory Based Questions # 29 Apr 2025
,1. Which diagnostic test is used for A) Hypoglycemia
Hydrocephalus? B) Hyperthyroidism
Options: C) Thalassemia
A) MRI D) Hyperkalemia
B) EEG Correct Answer: A) Hypoglycemia
C) CT scan Rationale: Infants of diabetic mothers
D) X-ray often experience hyperinsulinemia in utero
Correct Answer: c) CT scan due to the mother's high blood glucose
Rationale: Computed Tomography (CT) levels. After birth, the infant's insulin
scans use X-rays and computer processing production remains high, leading to a rapid
to create cross-sectional images of the drop in blood glucose and resulting in

1. CT scans are a common and effective thyroid disorder, thalassemia is a blood
diagnostic tool for hydrocephalus as they disorder, and hyperkalemia refers to high

(fluid-filled spaces) in the brain, which is a primary risk associated with infants of
key characteristic of this condition. diabetic mothers.
2. While MRI provides even more detailed 3. Etiology refers to:
images and is often preferred for Options:
comprehensive neurological evaluations, CT A) Study of treatment
scans are frequently used for initial B) Study of symptoms
diagnosis due to their speed and C) Study of causes
availability. EEG measures brain electrical D) Study of anatomy
activity, ECG assesses heart function, and Correct Answer: C) Study of causes
X-rays of the skull provide limited Rationale: Etiology is the branch of
information about the brain's soft tissues medical science concerned with the causes
and are not the primary diagnostic method or origins of diseases. The study of
