QUESTIONS WITH CORRECT
ANSWERS GRADED A+
◍ Anatomic Position.
Answer: The position of reference in which the patient stands facing you,
arms at the side, with the palms of the hands forward.
◍ Radiographic Image.
Answer: (manipulate) images that comes up on the workstation screen after
taking an image.
◍ Additive pathology versus destructive pathology. Name the examples given
in the PP
T. .
Answer: additive- add density to imagedestructive-
◍ Image Receptor (IR).
Answer: The device that receives the energy of the x-ray beam and forms
the image of the body part/ what the body parts are close to for the images
◍ Anatomical position..
Answer: The erect position of the body with the face directed forward, the
arms at the side, and the palms of the hands facing forward
◍ ARRT.
Answer: the american registry of radiologic technologists
◍ ASRT.
Answer: american society of radiologic technologists
◍ Projection.
Answer: term that describes the direction or path of the central ray (CR) of
, the x-ray beam
◍ bariatric.
Answer: obese
◍ Central Ray (CR).
Answer: Center-most portion of the x-ray beam emitted from the x-ray tube
◍ Computed Radiography (CR).
Answer: Cassette-based digital radiography; the digital acquisition modality
that uses storage phosphor plates to produce images
