Test your basic knowledge |

Instructions:
  • Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.
1. The electrical current sent through the filament to cause this electron release is called






2. Must be radiolucent






3. Film with: ultra speed - grainier image - less exposure needed






4. Increase developing time and temp of developing fluid






5. What type of bone tumors started in the location they were first found






6. Is the measurement for the maximum energy available at that setting






7. These screens have increased definition/detail - need to have increased radiation exposure






8. The layer of the film where the action occurs






9. We should always try and stay How many feet from our x-ray machine






10. What type of films need a lot more x-ray exposure and more time to expose them






11. Must increase.....to compensate for x-ray absorption by the grid. (we triple our mAs)






12. Increased crystal size.....






13. Most commonly used film - compromise between graininess and speed (detail)






14. This pertains to the size of the electron cloud and thus directly to the number of x-ray produced






15. Between density and mAs






16. Faster screens/less detail; slower screens/more detail






17. Can cause damage to living cells through the process of excitation or ionization of electrons in the orbits around atoms






18. Refers to the 'blackness' of a radiograph






19. What type of bone tumors started elsewhere and spread to the location it was found






20. The type of collimator that we have here






21. This stage of pregnancy is the most dangerous for the fetus






22. The greater the number of electrons released






23. The distance from the x-ray tube to the x-ray machine is the SID (source image distance) - or the FFD (also known as....)






24. General purpose film - forgiving






25. Dislocations or separations






26. Legally - a non-pregnant woman is required to hold a HBC dog for radiographs in NYS






27. If barium leaks into the abdomen or lungs - it can cause what






28. AgBr + x-rays =






29. The focused grid is upside down - is one reason for






30. Aluminum filter






31. Longer wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation have more penetrating power






32. If there's far or muscle in the way of an x-ray - those parts would be






33. Increased thickness of this leads to increased x-ray absorption and increased visible light emission from the crystals






34. Increase what value to penetrate thick body parts






35. Film with: high detail - minimal graininess - increased exposure






36. Size film we use here






37. What type of film has the x-rays directly cause the latent image to be formed






38. Has a filament made of tungsten - due to the high melting point






39. Negative contrast agents appear what color on a radiograph






40. The mAs has to do with the power of the x-rays produced






41. MAs for extremities






42. In the dark room - the safe light (red light) needs to be at least how far away from the loading bench






43. Is determined by the ratio of the height of the lead strips to the distance between them






44. To double the density






45. NYSVMS Facility Accreditation Standards






46. The 2 types of collimators are






47. Is influenced by quantity of x-rays(mAs) - quality of x-rays (kVp) - type and thickness of tissue being x-rayed






48. Weakness






49. This gives you the desired mAs - and it gives less time for your patient to move






50. Give a 25% barium solution for upper GI series - and give At what dose?
