ARRT PREP EXAM 2025 QUESTIONS
AND ANSWERS
The clavicle articulates with what two anatomical structures?
- humerus and scapula
- humerus and sternum
- sternum and spine
- sternum and scapula - ANS - sternum and scapula
clavicle articulates medially with the sternum and laterally with the acromion process of the
scapula
The occipital bone is best visualized in the:
- posteroanterior (PA) axial projection of the skull, Caldwell method
- submentovertical projection of the skull
- anteroposterior (AP) axial projection of the skull, Towne method
- lateral projection of the skull - ANS AP axial, Towne method
Tilting the table during myelography is used to:
- control the contrast flow
- eliminate patient aspiration
- reduce patient reactions
- increase the patient's blood pressure - ANS - control the contrast flow
gravity is used to move the contrast through the spinal canal.

, Which of the following radiographs would most commonly be obtained for a patient with
epiglottis?
- lateral soft tissue neck
- routine posteroanterior (PA) chest
- routine lateral chest
- posteroanterior (PA) chest exposed on expiration - ANS lateral soft tissue neck
"If you don't hold still, I will have to stick you again with this needle!" is an example of:
- false imprisonment
- battery
- assault
- negligence - ANS assault
the threat of touching a person in a harmful manor, patient may be afraid and they do not
always hold still
The values below were recorded on four different x-ray imaging systems. Which of these values
represents the highest level of spatial resolution?
- 20 line pairs per millimeter (lp/mm)
- 18 line pairs per millimeter (lp/mm)
- 16 line pairs per millimeter (lp/mm)
- 14 line pairs per millimeter (lp/mm) - ANS 20 line pairs per millimeter (lp/mm)
the most lp/mm has the highest recorded spatial resolution
as lp/mm increases, the size of the lines decreases and the spatial resolution increases
Which of the following represents the correct breathing instructions for a posteroanterior (PA)
chest for a patient with bronchial pneumonia?
- take a deep breath and hold it
- take a deep breath, blow it out and hold it out
