Q: The peak velocity of aortic regurgitation indicates the maximum
pressure gradient between:
the aorta and the LV in systole
the aorta and the LV in diastole
the LV and the LA in diastole
the LV and the LA in diastole
Ans: the aorta and the LV in diastole
Q: Which type of image resolution improves with proper placement of
the focal zone at the area of interest?
temporal
lateral
contrast
elevational
Ans: Lateral
Q: The tissue of the interventricular septum will be best visualized when:
,the US beam is parallel to the long axis of the septum
the US beam is perpendicular to the long axis of the septu
the dynamic range is increased
harmonics is turned off
Ans: the US beam is perpendicular to the long axis of the septum
Q: A 38yr old male presents for an echo due to a systolic murmur and
has no other cardiac symptoms. Due to patient habitus, 2D imaging is
significantly limited but the EF% appears normal. The aortic valve
velocity is 4m/s with a peak pressure gradient of 64mmHg and no aortic
insufficiency is detected. Which of the following is the most likely
etiology of the aortic stenosis?
bicuspid AV
infective endocarditis
degenerative disease
Marfans syndrome
Ans: bicuspid AV
Examstudy - Stuvia US
,Q: All of the following are evaluated on a cardiac MRI, except:
regurgitant volume of mitral regurgitation
left ventricular mass
mitral valve prolapse
left ventricular systolic volume
Ans: mitral valve prolapse
Cardiac MRI cannot demonstrate the fine structures and motion of the
valves.
Q: You are performing a resting echo with contrast for wall motion
evaluation. Just after the injection of microbubble contrast, the patient
complains of feeling short of breath and their face appears to be
flushed. The heart rate on the EKG is 117bpm. Which of the following
correctly describes their symptoms?
Examstudy - Stuvia US
, the patient is most likely experiencing a vasovagal reaction to the
contrast
this is a normal response to perfluorocarbon contrast media
the symptoms are most likely related to anxiety
the patient is most likely experiencing an anaphylactic reaction to the
contrast
Ans: the patient is most likely experiencing an anaphylactic reaction to the
contrast
Tachycardia, bronchospasm, wheezing, pruitis, erythema, hives and a
feeling of impending doom are symptoms related to an anaphylactic
response. Because the short time frame between contrast injection
and the symptoms, the most likely cause of the symptoms is an
allergic reaction.
Q: Flattening of the IVS is least likely to be associated with which of the
following?
