Chapter 1: Intro to Radiographic
Pathology
disease correct answers pattern of the body's response to some form of injury that
causes a change from normal conditions
5 causes of disease correct answers hereditary, trauma, infectious organisms, vascular
processes, metabolic processes
pathology correct answers study of disease processes
etiology correct answers study of the cause of disease
idiopathic disease correct answers disorder of unknown cause
signs correct answers objective
symptoms correct answers patient's feelings
iatrogenic correct answers produced by a physician or treatment
nosocomial infection correct answers hospital acquired infection
community-acquired infection correct answers infection acquired in the community, not
in a hospital
asymptomatic correct answers without symptoms
diagnosis correct answers identification of a disease process
prognosis correct answers probable outcome of a disease
acute inflammation correct answers the initial response of body tissues to local injury
what causes acute inflammation? correct answers trauma, infectious organisms,
chemicals
the vessels dilate and allow.... correct answers an increase in blood flow
hyperemia correct answers increase in blood flow
increase in blood flow = correct answers heat and redness
, 5 steps of acute inflammation correct answers 1. increase in blood flow
2. increase in vascular permeability
3. white blood cells are sent to the site
4. phagocytosis occurs
5. repair and regeneration
Exudate correct answers fluid, such as pus, that leaks out of an infected wound
exudate is protein ________ correct answers rich
transudate correct answers low protein substance associated with pulmonary edema
(CHF)
interstition correct answers fluid-filled space between a structural
increased fluid puts..... correct answers pressure on nerve endings
pressure on nerve endings leads to.... correct answers swelling, pain, loss of function
regeneration correct answers parenchymal cells that are identical to original cells are
produced
granulation correct answers Scar tissue caused by fibrous collagen
inflammation correct answers initial response of body tissues to local injury
5 clinical signs of inflammation correct answers redness, heat, swelling, pain, loss of
function
systemic manifestations of inflammation correct answers fever, leukocytosis
abscess correct answers localized and encapsulated collection of fluid
Bacteremia correct answers presence of bacteria in the bloodstream
Suppurative inflammation correct answers formation of pus
edema correct answers Accumulation of abnormal amounts of fluid in the intercellular
tissue spaces or body cavities
localized edema correct answers inflammatory response, local obstruction
Elephantiasis correct answers Localized lymphatic obstruction resulting in localized
edema
