MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. Some consequences of ionization in human cells include:
1. creation of unstable atoms.
2. production of free electrons.
3. creation of reactive free radicals capable of producing substances poisonous to the cell.
a. 1 only
TU
b. 2 only
c. 3 only
d. 1, 2, and 3
ANS: D REF: 2
2. Which of the following is a special form of radiation that is capable of creating electrically
TO
charged particles by removing orbital electrons from the atom of the material with which it
interacts?
a. Ionizing radiation
b. Nonionizing radiation
c. Subatomic radiation

R
ANS: A REF: 2
3. Patients who have an understanding of the medical benefits of an imaging procedure because
G
they received factual information about the study before having the examination are more
likely to:
a. assume a small risk of biologic damage but not overcome any radiation phobia
they may have.
U
b. cancel their scheduled procedure because they are not willing to assume a small
risk of biologic damage.
c. overcome any radiation phobia but not assume a small risk of possible biologic
R
damage.
d. overcome any radiation phobia and be willing to assume a small risk of possible
biologic damage.
U
ANS: D REF: 8

ANS: C REF: 9
5. The advantages of the BERT method are:
1. it does not imply radiation risk; it is simply a means for comparison.
