CAMRT 2025 EXAM QUESTIONS WITH
COMPLETE SOLUTION



100 Rad = _____ Gray - ANSWER-1 Gy


.100 REM = __________ Sv - ANSWER-1 Sv


.1mCi = ? Bq - ANSWER-37MBq


.Accumulated activity calculation - ANSWER-Acum=Ao 1.44Te


.barrel and pincushin artifact - ANSWER-gamma ray locations
bowed away from spaces between PMTs and toward the
PMTs themselves. Seen when linearity map is turned off


.calculate percent of original intensity - ANSWER-100%/2^n


where n is the number of HVLs

,.Causes for worsening of energy resolution of well counter or
probe - ANSWER-cracked crystal (unlikely)
Uncoupling of crystal
Crystal hydration


.Class A radionuclides - ANSWER-Alpha emitters and their
daughters


.Class B radionuclides - ANSWER-Relatively long lived gamma
emitters and some betas


131-I, Ga-67, 58-Co


.Class C radionuclides - ANSWER-Short-lived Gamma and beta
emitters


Tc, the other iodines, Tl, Y90, P32


.DC accuracy - ANSWER-does the DC accurately measure the
amount of activity (+/- 10%)

, .DC Constancy - ANSWER-do todays readings fall within an
acceptable range compared to prior readings (+/- 10%)


Done daily


.effect of lithium on thyroid - ANSWER-results in decreased T4
and T3 results in enlarged thyroid


Therefore increases I uptake


.Effective half life equation - ANSWER-1/Te= 1/Tb + 1/Tp


.Energy or spatial resolution equation - ANSWER-high value-
low value at half peak/energy or channel


.Exposure Rate Equation - ANSWER-Exposure Rate = Activity x
Exposure Rate Constant x 1/d^2




units are cm^2mR/mCihr
