ANSWERS) CAMRT CERTIFICATION EXAM 2025/2026 LATEST TEST BANK (NEW!!)
How far away must the operator stand from the Xray tube if not covered with lead?
ANS >>> 3 meters
90% of manmade radiation to the population is related to? - ANSWER Medical
Radiography and Dental
For each peak Xray voltage, what lead equivalent is required?
100kV or less (o-100)
Between 101kV-149kV
150kV or greater (150+) - ANSWER 0-100kV = 0.25mm of lead
Greater than 100kV but less then 150kV = 0.35mm of lead
150kV or greater = 0.50mm of lead
What protective equipment is required during interventional procedures ANS >>>
Full wrap around protective gowns of 0.50mm pb in the front panels and 0.25mm pb
in the back panels
Thyroid shields with an equivalent of 0.50mm of pb
Lead drapes/curtains mounted to II of 0.25mm of pb at 100kv
What lead equivalent must protective gloves/ gauntlets possess? ANS >>> 0.25mm
of pb
What lead equivalent must ceiling mounted lead screens and moveable shields
provide? - ANSWER 0.50mm of pb
What are the annual radiation dose limits for radiation workers? ANS >>> Whole
body= 20mSv
Lens of eye= 150mSv
Skin = 500mSv
Hands = 150mSv
,All other organs = 500mSv
For pregnant women an effective dose of 4 mSv must be applied for the remainder
of the pregnancy from all sources
What are the annual radiation dose limits to members of the public? ANS >>> Whole
body = 1mSv
Lens of the eye= 15mSv
Skin = 50mSv
Hands = 50mSv
All other organs = 50mSv
*These also apply for students*
What are primary protective barriers? Give examples - ANSWER Primary barriers
provide shielding from the direct Xray beam. Such as, the walls and floor where the
tube can be directed
-The wall behind the wall bucky
-Floor under the table
What are secondary barriers and give examples ANS >>> Provide shielding
against both leakage and scattered radiation. Walls that the primary beam is not
directed towards and the ceiling are secondary barriers.
The control booth is also a secondary barrier; the primary beam should never be
directed towards it.
What should the focal spot to skin distance be for:
-Mobile equipment
-Stationary equipment
-Radioscopic equipment - ANSWER Must not be less than:
-Mobile: 30cm
-Stationary: 38cm
-Radioscopic: 20cm (designed for special procedures that would be impossible at
30cm or 38cm)
What are the maximum air karma rates for radioscopic equipment:
-with automatic intensity control
-without AIC - ANSWER Not equipped with AIC: 50mGy/min
With AIC: 100mGy/min
The air karma rate must not exceed from scattered radiation of radioscopic
equipment ANS >>> 2 my/h

-CT # calibration
-CT # linearity
What should the monthly retake analysis be below? - ANSWER 5%
What are quarterly QC tests for CR/DR/Fluor/CT - ANSWER -Collimator
operation (CR/DR/Fluor)
-Interlocks (all) (on doors to prevent exposure if door is open)
-Compression devices (Fluor)
-Table angling/motion (Fluor)
-Fluor protection devices (lead drapes = .25mm of pb)
-CT patient support movement
-CT spatial resolution
-CT low contrast detectability
What are the annual QC tests for CR/DR/Fluor/CT - ANSWER -Accuracy of
loading factors (CR/DR/fluor)
