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.

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






15. MAs for bone views (pelvis - skull - spine) 2x =?






16. An invisible image on the x-ray film Which becomes visible after it has been processed in the manual or automatic processor






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






18. A lightproof encasement designed to hold x-ray film and intensifying screens in close contact






19. Radiograph of a dogs skeleton has a long scale of contrast






20. X-ray machines come with a set one - we cannot adjust it






21. Increase developing time and temp of developing fluid






22. Increased crystal size.....






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






24. Another result of the 20 degree angling






25. What is the name for the cartilage flap in the shoulder joint that has broken free and is floating around in the joint fluid






26. A type of electromagnetic radiation which have a shorter wavelength than visible light






27. These crystals will turn white/clear when processing film






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






29. This is caused by mutations in gonadal cells - not seen until offspring are produced - mutations are not always bad






30. What spinal problem do doberman's get






31. White against black - like the x-ray of a plain skeleton

37. What specific part of the eye is cloudy with a cataract






38. Aluminum filter






39. Is on the anode and is angled at approximately 20 degrees from vertical






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






41. Types of cell damage






42. Extra vertebrae - scoliosis - fused vertebrae are all examples of






43. What is the term for a negative contrast cystogram where we inject air






44. The 2 types of collimators are






45. Redness of the skin






46. If there's no object in the way of an x-ray - the picture would be






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






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






49. When this is exposed to x-rays - it will absorb photons (quanta) and give off photons of visible light which the film is sensitive to (give off blue light)






50. Is the source of electrons
