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

effective test-taking strategy to use when taking this test is - correct answer ✔✔scan the test and answer
the questions you clearly know and then go back and spend the necessary time on those questions that
need more time, even though you may not quite finish.
As you prepare to take a final examination for a course you have enjoyed, you discover that your laptop
computer battery is very low, causing concern. You wanted to review your notes one last time before
going into the examination. This event would be classified as a(n) - correct answer ✔✔hassle
Critical thinking is an essential part of the radiologic sciences profession. This requires the professional
radiographer to use broad intellectual skills and experiences when making the correct choice for any
given situation. This is true because - correct answer ✔✔many decisions are difficult and complex,
working with each patient is a unique experience, no two procedures or treatments are the same
, All of the following choices would generally require critical analysis thinking except - correct answer
✔✔checking in for work and reviewing the day's schedule
Critical thinking skills are necessary for the competent medical imaging professional. Various
organizations within the radiologic sciences provide guidance and documentation of these traits. As an
example, the American Society of Radiologic Technologists (ASRT) publishes ______________ that help
define specific professional expectations and responsibilities. - correct answer ✔✔practice standards
Exposure factor selection for optimum image quality is one of the most challenging aspects of
radiography. In your attempt to produce an image of a patient's hip in the AP projection, you become
frustrated with the image you have created because it is sub-optimal in image quality. When you show
the image to the supervisor, he abruptly states that you need to repeat the image and this time "get it
right." As you begin to repeat the image, your first critical analysis thought should be to - correct answer
✔✔clearly identify the problem that led to the suboptimal image
The transfer of knowledge gained in the laboratory or classroom setting is best demonstrated - correct
answer ✔✔in an actual clinical setting on patients
In your experiences as a student radiographer, you will encounter a variety of technologists, each with
his or her own methods for performing procedures. Most will be quite good, but unfortunately some will
be poor. As a student, you have a responsibility to recognize these various behaviors and assess their
professional correctness. A firm reference point for determining the appropriate behavior for
technologist behavior would be - correct answer ✔✔referencing the ASRT practice standards and ARRT
code of ethics
While working as a radiographer, you design a unique receptor holder to use during portable procedures
that clearly reduces the exposure of others, by lessening the need to hold patients or image receptors.
The development of this imaging device shows that you are functioning at what level of learning? -
correct answer ✔✔Synthesis
As students gain competency in medical imaging procedures, three phases in the clinical setting are
planned by clinical faculty. These three phases in the correct learning sequence are - correct answer
✔✔observation, assistance, and performance
