Selecting exposure factors of ________ milliampere-seconds (mAs) and
_______peak kilovoltage (kVp)
delivers the LEAST amount of radiation to the patient.
A) 100;100
B) 200;90
C) 400;80
D) 800;70
a. 100;100
Radiation intensity has a direct releationship with mAs and with the
square of kVp. When distance remains the same, the formula of mAs x
kVp2 can be used to compare the effects of technical factor selection on
patient dose. An increase in kVp with a compensating decrease in mAs
results in reduced patient dose.
Radiation dose to personnel is reduced by which of the following
guideline stating that exposure cords?
a. on fixed equipment are at least 6 feet long
b. must be at least 6 feet long on mobile equipment
c. should be coiled on fixed and mobile equipment
d. must be. length that allow personnel to stand next to the patient
b. must be at least 6 feet long on mobile equipment
What instructions for respiration are given to a patient during a routine
chest lateral projection?
,a. shallow breathing
b. normal breathing
c. full expiration
d. full inspiration
d. full inspiration
A routine chest lateral image is obtained on full inspiration. It is best to
take the image on the second full inspiration for maximum inflation.
Which type of communication includes eye contact, touch and tone of
voice?
a. verbal
b. nonverbal
c. paralanguage
d. body language
b. nonverbal
Nonverbal communication includes all exchange of information from one
person to the other absence the actual words of speech. Paralanguage
and body language are considered forms of nonverbal communication.
Verbal communication includes speech and grammar.
Which of the following radiography equipment features is designed to
eliminate unnecessary radiation exposure to the patient?
a. filtration
b. minimum source-to-skin distance (SSD) of 30 inches
c. tube window
d. light localized collimation
a. filtration
The use of filtration eliminates low energy x-ray photons from the beam
The outer portion of the double-walled sac din the abdominal cavity is
called the:
a. parietal periotoneum
,b. visceral periotoneum
c. parietal pleura
d. visceral pleura
a. parietal peritoneum
The outer portion of the sac is the parietal peritoneum. The inner portion
of the sac is the visceral peritoneum. The pleurae are located in the
thoracic cavity.
A patient is injected with a large volume of fluid intravenously; this is
called a(n):
a. intravenous push
b. bolus
c. drip infusion
d. drop flow
b. bolus
A bolus is a large volume of injected fluid. An intravenous push is the
action of rapid injection of fluid. Drip infusion is the infusion of liquid
into the vein, but can include a large or small amount of liquid. Drop flow
is not a medical term used in venipuncture procedures.
Which of the following are carpal bones?
a. capitate, hamate, navicular, talus
b. calcaneus, hamate, pisiform, scaphoid
c. capitate, hamate, scaphoid, talus
d. capitate, hamate, pisiform, scaphoid
d. capitate, hamate, pisiform, scaphoid
The carpal bones are the scaphoid, lunate, triquetrum, pisiform,
trapezium, trapezoid, capitate, and hamate.
Children have epiphyseal plates made of ___ that can be evaluated as
part of normal chronologic age for bone age analysis.
a. fibrocartilage
, b. elastic cartilage
c. hyaline cartilage
d. osteogenic cartilage
c. hyaline cartilage
The ejection of an electron from an atom or molecule is known as:
a. ionization
b. trephination
c. excitation
d. polymerization
a. ionization
The upright abdomen must include the:
a. pubic symphysis at the bottom of the image
b. diaphragm at the top of the image
c. bladder at the bottom of the image
d. apices of the lungs at the top of the image
b. diaphragm at the top of the image
The upright abdomen must include the diaphragm at the top of the
image. An upright abdomen can show air-fluid and free air in the
abdomen. The highest region the free air would migrate to is just below
the diaphragm. If the diaphragm is not included on the image, the
presence of air might go undiagnosed.
For a PA axial oblique projection of the C-spine, the central ray is angle
___ degrees in the ____ direction.
a. 15 to 20; caudad
b. 15 to 20; cephalad
c. 45; caudad
d. 45; cephalic
a. 15 to 20; caudad
