d. Midcycle
ANS: A Menarche is the state after reaching puberty in which menses occur every
21 to 28 days.

axis of the body to image structures from anterior to posterior?
a. Transverse
b. Axial
c. Sagittal
d. Coronal
ANS: D The coronal plane is a horizontal plane through the longitudinal axis of the
body, which is the plane used to image structures from anterior to posterior.

by the mean over one cardiac cycle is the _____ index
a. Pulsatility
b. Resistive
c. Mean systolic
d. Mean diastolic
ANS: A the pulsatility index uses peak systole minus peak diastole divided by the
mean over one cardiac cycle

8. The difference between the peak systole and the peak diastole is the ____
ratio.
a. LS ratio
b. S/D ratio
c. D/S ratio
d. CI ratio
ANS: B The S/D ratio is the difference between the peak systole and the peak
diastole.
9. Which one of the following techniques uses a catheter inserted into the
endometrial cavity with the insertion of saline or contrast media to fill the
endometrial cavity to demonstrate abnormalities within the cavity or uterine
tube?
