ACTUAL Exam Questions and CORRECT
Answers
7 degrees - CORRECT ANSWER - a battery powered, battery operated mobile xray unit
can climb a max incline of:
batter operated, battery driven source - CORRECT ANSWER - which type of mobile
radiography xray unit is self-propelled?
False, mobile fluoro - CORRECT ANSWER - T/F C-arms are most generally stationary
fluoro units used in surgery
True - CORRECT ANSWER - T/F the C-arm fluoro unit can be rotated a min. of 180
degrees
False, PA is recommended to decreases exposure to operator and decreased OID - CORRECT
ANSWER - T/F AP with the xray tube placed directly above the anatomy during a c-arm
procedure is recommended to minimize OID
True - CORRECT ANSWER - T/F digital C-arm units can store images on videotape or
computer hard disk memory
road mapping - CORRECT ANSWER - term for the process of holding one image on the
C-arm monitor whole also providing continuous fluoro
hangmans - CORRECT ANSWER - fx through the pedicles of C2
monteggia - CORRECT ANSWER - fx of the proximal half of ulna with dislocation of
radial head
, pathologic - CORRECT ANSWER - fx resulting from a disease process
chip - CORRECT ANSWER - fx resulting in an isolated bone fragment
nursemaids elbow - CORRECT ANSWER - subluxation of the radial head on a child
bennetts - CORRECT ANSWER - fx along base of 1st metacarpal
baseball - CORRECT ANSWER - fx of distal phalanx with finger extended
stress or fatigue - CORRECT ANSWER - also called a march fx
hutchinsons - CORRECT ANSWER - also called a chauffeurs fx
True - CORRECT ANSWER - T/F any trauma study requires at least two projections as
close as possible to 90 degrees opposite from each other
True - CORRECT ANSWER - T/F on an initial study of a long bone, both joints should be
included for each projection
False - CORRECT ANSWER - T/F collimation on trauma cases can lead to cutoff of key
anatomy and pathology, therefore it should be limited to the size of the IR
6 feet (1.8 m) - CORRECT ANSWER - the tech must be at least ____ from the xray tube
during a mobile radiographic procedure
False, greater on tube side - CORRECT ANSWER - T/F the exposure dose is greater on
the ii side than on the xray tube side with the C-arm in the horizontal configuration
