The term radiation sickness refers to:
a. occupational radiation effects
b. congenital illnesses owning to genetic effects
c. short term gastrointestinal effects
d. any stochastic effect
c. short term gastrointestinal effects
exposure index number (EI)
An exposure indicator number usually displayed on the monitor, also referred to as S number or
other number, depending on the equipment. This number must be monitored by radiographers
to ensure that exposures are of diagnostic quality and are not excessive.
The effective dose-equivalent limit for the whole-body occupational radiation exposure to non-
pregnant radiation workers older than 18 years is:
a. 1.25 gy per year
b. 5 gy per year
1|Page
,c. 5 msv per year
d. 50 msv per year
c. 5 msv per year
exposure time (T)
A measurement of how long the exposure will continue; measured in seconds, fractions of
seconds, or milliseconds.
Genes are expressed in the individual are said to be:
a. mutated
b. dominant
c. random
d. recessive
b. dominant
Image contrast
The difference in the optical density of adjacent structures within the image.
Long-term radiation effects that are apparently random, and that have no threshold amount of
exposure that must be received in order for them to occur, are termed:
a. somatic
b. genetic
c. occupational
d. stochastic
d. stochastic
image detail
Refers to the sharpness of the image.

,kilvoltage kVp
Potential difference measured at the peak of the electrical cycle; an x-ray control setting that
determines the penetrating power of the x-ray beam
Which of the following is a type of personal radiation dosimeter?
a. sid
b. kvp
c. osl
d. oid
c. osl
When a pregnant patient requires abdominal or pelvic radiography, the decision to do a limited
study and the determination of the exact limitations to be imposed are prerogatives of the:
a. patients physician
b. radiologist
c. patient
d. radiographer
b. radiologist
milliamperage mA
A unit of electric current that is one thousandth of an ampere. It is used to measure the rate of
current flow in an x-ray tube and to describe the exposure setting of a radiography machine that
determines the rate at which x-rays are produced.
The only recognized professional society open to all radiologic technologists in the United States
today is the:
a. AVIR
3|Page
, b. AHRA
c. ASRT
d. AARP
c. asrt
object image distance OID
The distance between the object and the image receptor (IR).
Fee-for-service-type health insurance is often appealing to patients because:
a.the insurance company will reimburse the patient for covered costs
b. the patient does not have to pay the cost above what is covered by insurance
c. patients can seek care from their choice of physicians and hospitals
d. all of the above
c. patients can seek care from their choice of physicians and hospitals
optical density OD
The overall blackness of the image.
The nationwide increase in patient visits to the emergency department is principally due to:
a. convenient hours
b. a lack of doctors who make house calls
c. lower costs per visit than doctors' offices
d. inability of patients to obtain low-cost health insurance
inability of patients to obtain low-cost health insurance
d. inability of patients to obtain low-cost health insurance
inability of patients to obtain low-cost health insurance
