SONOSIM CORE CARDIOLOGY
EXAM 2025 QUESTIONS AND
ANSWERS
Which statement regarding the echocardiographic assessment of left ventricular ejection
fraction is correct? - ....ANSWER ...-normal function equates with an ejection
fraction of 55 to 70%, severely reduced function corelates with an ejection fraction of 30%
or less, studies have documented that clinicians can qualitatively classify left ventricular
systolic function as normal, mile-to-moderately reduced, and severely reduced with
reasonable precision, modern echocardiography machines have automated methods of
calculating ejection fraction, provided a good quality cardiac image with clear
endocardial border definition is obtained
Which features characterize an epicardial fat pad? - ....ANSWER ...-None of the
above
T/F In order to obtain a parasternal short-axis view of the base of the heart, starting
from the mid-ventricular parasternal short-axis view, one would maintain the same
transducer position and tilt the handle of the transducer towards the patients left
shoulder. - ....ANSWER ...-false
