RADIOLOGY EXAM 2026 – 2027 LATEST VERSION QUESTIONS AND
ANSWERS 2026 EDITION
FINAL EXAM
The use of x-rays to create a medical image on patients is referred to as
radiography
Particular care must be taken when using radiation for medical imaging. This is the
result of radiation's ability to create __________ in human tissue and possible
biochemical changes.
ionizations
In the radiology field, a number of imaging technologies do not employ ionizing
radiations. As a result, the profession is starting to reference a new term that
includes medical sonography and magnetic resonance imaging. This term is often
referred to as:
imaging sciences.
The Greek physician Hippocrates is regarded as the father of Western medicine. All
of the following choices represent his medical beliefs except the
important medical value of medicinal potions and super natural powers.
Throughout the history of medicine, remarkable achievements have been
recorded. These events have led to our current understanding of the human

organism and disease. As this research continues, much of it will most likely focus
on new pharmaceuticals based upon
human genes and genetic engineering.
Wilhelm C. Roentgen's discovery of "the X-ray" is regarded as one of medicine's
most significant achievements. Although his discovery was accidental, his early
research was so thorough that no significant findings have been added to his
original theories. This in itself is a true tribute to the brilliance of Roentgen as a
scientist. One of the most famous early images he created was an X-ray image of
his
wife's hand.
The application of x-rays or gamma rays for disease treatment purposes is referred
to as
radiation therapy.
All of the following are true of the diagnostic procedure of mammography except
the procedures are be performed using a general radiographic machine.
To study the blood vessels of the brain, kidneys, liver, and other organs, contrast
material is administered into these vessels by using
catheters
Radiologic science continues to be one of the most exciting professions in
medicine. An imaging modality that uses no ionizing radiation and the energy of
radio waves and magnetic fields to produce images is
MRI
A technologist with the credentials R.T.(R), (QM), (BD) (ARRT) would be considered
qualified to perform
DXA scans.

A class of health care workers who specialize in carrying out treatments designed
to improve the function of a particular body part or system and who likely possess a
2- or 4-year degree are known as
therapists
Board-certified radiologists can be a medical doctor (MD) or a doctor of osteopathy
(DO). To become a board-certified radiologist following medical school, these
physicians must complete a
residency
The health occupation that deals with the management of patient medical records
and medical coding is
health information services.
The distinction between a technologist and a technician can be confusing to the
general public, when related to medical personnel. A key difference between the
two involves education. A technologist typically
has a higher level of education and deal with higher-level problems.
The medical imaging specialty of ___________ utilizes the administration of
radiopharmaceuticals in the production of medical images for patient diagnosis.
nuclear medicine
The current medical standard for measuring bone health, with a high degree of
accuracy, is
DEXA studies of the hip and lower spine.
Many medical professions have developed "practice standards" to ensure
optimum performance of their members. The radiography "practice standards" are
developed and maintained by the
American Society of Radiologic Technologists (ASRT).
