    Shadowing may result from high amounts of reflection of US energy.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Shadowing can occur when there is a high amount of reflection of ultrasonic (US) energy. When US energy reflects off surfaces, it can create areas where the energy is blocked or absorbed, resulting in shadowing. This phenomenon is commonly observed in medical imaging, where certain structures or tissues may not be clearly visible due to shadowing caused by reflection of the US waves. Therefore, the given statement is true.

    • 15000T

    • None

    Correct Answer
    A. 10000T
    Explanation
    The answer is 10000T because gauss and tesla are both units used to measure magnetic field strength. 1 tesla is equal to 10000 gauss, so 10000 gauss is equivalent to 10000T.

    Which has the greatest amount of attenuation?

    • Bone

    • Fat

    • Water

    • Muscle

    Correct Answer
    A. Bone
    Explanation
    Bone has the greatest amount of attenuation because it is denser and contains more minerals compared to the other options. Attenuation refers to the reduction in the intensity of a signal as it passes through a medium. In this case, bone is more effective at absorbing and scattering the signal, resulting in a higher level of attenuation compared to fat, water, and muscle.

    True of False:  With standard diagnostic imaging instrumentation, the sonographer has the ability to vary the amplitude of a sound wave produced by the transducer.

    • Ture

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. Ture
    Explanation
    With standard diagnostic imaging instrumentation, the sonographer does have the ability to vary the amplitude of a sound wave produced by the transducer. This is typically done by adjusting the power output of the ultrasound machine, which controls the strength of the sound waves being emitted. By increasing or decreasing the amplitude, the sonographer can adjust the intensity of the sound waves and optimize the image quality for different types of examinations or patient conditions.

    What determines the intensity of an ultrasound beam after it has traveled through the body?

    • The sound wave's source

    • The medium throught which the sound travels

    • Both A and B

    • Neither choice A nor B

    Correct Answer
    A. Both A and B
    Explanation
    The intensity of an ultrasound beam after it has traveled through the body is determined by both the sound wave's source and the medium through which the sound travels. The source of the sound wave determines the initial intensity of the beam, while the medium through which it travels can affect the attenuation or absorption of the sound wave, leading to changes in intensity. Therefore, both factors play a role in determining the intensity of the ultrasound beam after it has passed through the body.

    Which of the following terms best describes the relationship between frequency and wavelength for sound traveling in soft tissue?

    • Receiprocal

    • Direct

    • Related

    • Inverse

    Correct Answer
    A. Inverse
    Explanation
    The term "inverse" best describes the relationship between frequency and wavelength for sound traveling in soft tissue. Inverse means that as one variable increases, the other variable decreases, and vice versa. In this case, as the frequency of the sound waves increases, the wavelength decreases, and as the frequency decreases, the wavelength increases. This relationship is consistent with the behavior of sound waves in soft tissue.

    If the frequency is decreased, the numerical value of the radial resolution is

    • Increased

    • Decreased

    • Unchanges

    Correct Answer
    A. Increased
    Explanation
    When the frequency is decreased, the numerical value of the radial resolution is increased. Radial resolution refers to the ability to distinguish between two points in an image along the radial direction. A higher numerical value indicates a greater ability to distinguish between these points, which means that the radial resolution is increased. This is because decreasing the frequency results in a longer wavelength, which increases the distance between the points that can be resolved. Therefore, the radial resolution is directly affected by the frequency, and decreasing it leads to an increase in the numerical value of the radial resolution.

    What happens to venous blood flow to the heart during expiration?

    • Increases

    • Decreases

    • Unchanged

    Correct Answer
    A. Decreases
    Explanation
    During expiration, the diaphragm and intercostal muscles relax, causing a decrease in thoracic volume. This decrease in thoracic volume leads to an increase in intrathoracic pressure. As a result, the pressure inside the thoracic cavity becomes higher than the pressure in the vena cava, causing a decrease in venous blood flow to the heart. Therefore, the correct answer is "decreases".

    For Doppler, which incident angle reults in no shift?

    • 180

    • 90

    • 0

    • 45

    Correct Answer
    A. 90
    Explanation
    When it comes to Doppler effect, an incident angle of 90 degrees results in no shift. The Doppler effect is the change in frequency or wavelength of a wave in relation to an observer who is moving relative to the wave source. When the incident angle is 90 degrees, it means that the observer is directly facing the wave source, resulting in no change in frequency or wavelength. This is because there is no component of the wave's motion along the line of sight of the observer, causing no shift to occur.

    • 1

    • 2

    • 5

    • 10

    Correct Answer
    A. 2
    Explanation
    Binary uses a base of 2. In binary, there are only two digits, 0 and 1, which represent the absence or presence of a value. Each digit in a binary number represents a power of 2, starting from the rightmost digit. Therefore, the base of binary is 2.

    Which of the following has a propagation speed closest to "soft tissue"?

    • Muscle

    • Fat

    • Bone

    • Air

    Correct Answer
    A. Muscle
    Explanation
    Muscle has a propagation speed closest to "soft tissue" because both muscle and soft tissue have similar physical properties and compositions. Soft tissue refers to the connective tissues in the body, including muscle tissue, which is made up of cells and fibers. The propagation speed of sound waves in muscle tissue is similar to that in other soft tissues, such as tendons and ligaments. In comparison, fat, bone, and air have different compositions and densities, resulting in different propagation speeds for sound waves.

    What is displayed on the y axis of an m-mode image?

    • Time

    • Time of flight

    • Echo intensity

    • Red blood cell velocity

    Correct Answer
    A. Time of flight
    Explanation
    In an m-mode image, the y-axis represents the time of flight. This refers to the time it takes for an ultrasound beam to travel to a structure and back to the transducer. By measuring the time of flight, the m-mode image can display the depth or position of different structures within the body. This information is crucial in diagnosing and monitoring various conditions, as it allows healthcare professionals to visualize the movement and function of organs and tissues over time.

    Refraction only occurs if there is :

    • Normal incidence and different impedances

    • Indirect intensity and differenct propagation speeds

    • Oblique incidence and different propagation speeds

    • Oblique frequency and identical impedances

    Correct Answer
    A. Oblique incidence and different propagation speeds
    Explanation
    Refraction occurs when light passes from one medium to another at an angle, causing it to change direction. In this case, the correct answer states that refraction only occurs when there is oblique incidence (the light ray strikes the interface at an angle other than 90 degrees) and different propagation speeds (the speed of light is different in each medium). This is because the change in angle and speed of the light ray as it enters a new medium causes it to bend, resulting in refraction.

    Which one of the following instruments is a component that stores digital echo signal information?

    • Demodulator

    • Receiver

    • Video monitor

    • Logarithmic amplifier

    • Scan converter

    Correct Answer
    A. Scan converter
    Explanation
    A scan converter is an instrument that converts a video signal from one format to another. It takes input from a video source and stores the digital echo signal information in its memory. This allows the scan converter to manipulate and display the video signal in a different format, such as changing the resolution or aspect ratio. Therefore, the scan converter is the component that stores digital echo signal information.

    Which of the following is not a measure of area?

    • Square cm

    • Meters squared

    • Cubic meters

    • Feet x feet

    Correct Answer
    A. Cubic meters
    Explanation
    Cubic meters is not a measure of area because it is a measure of volume. Area is a two-dimensional measurement that describes the amount of space an object or surface occupies, while volume is a three-dimensional measurement that describes the amount of space an object or substance occupies in all three dimensions. Therefore, cubic meters, which represents the volume of an object or substance, is not a measure of area.

    The wavelength of a cycle in an ultrasound wave can be reported with which units?

    • Units of time (seco, min, etc)

    • Units of distance (feet, cm)

    • Units of area (m^2, etc

    • Mm only

    Correct Answer
    A. Units of distance (feet, cm)
    Explanation
    Ultrasound waves are a type of mechanical wave that travels through a medium, such as air or water. The wavelength of a wave is the distance between two consecutive points that are in phase, or the distance over which the wave completes one full cycle. In the case of ultrasound waves, the wavelength is measured in units of distance, such as feet or centimeters. This is because the wavelength represents the physical length of the wave, indicating how far the wave travels in one complete cycle. Therefore, the correct answer is units of distance (feet, cm).

    If the frequency is decreased, the numberical value of the radial resolution is

    • Increased

    • Decreased

    • Unchanged

    Correct Answer
    A. Increased
    Explanation
    When the frequency is decreased, the numerical value of the radial resolution is increased. Radial resolution refers to the ability to distinguish two closely spaced objects along the radial axis. A higher numerical value indicates a greater ability to differentiate between these objects, meaning that the resolution is improved. Therefore, when the frequency is decreased, the radial resolution is increased.

    The more bits per pixel

    • The better the resolution

    • The higher the pixel density

    • The more shades of gray

    • Higher reliability

    Correct Answer
    A. The more shades of gray
    Explanation
    The more bits per pixel refers to the number of bits used to represent each pixel in an image. A higher number of bits allows for a greater range of shades of gray to be displayed. This means that the image will have more levels of gray between black and white, resulting in a more detailed and realistic representation of the image. Therefore, the statement "the more shades of gray" is the correct answer as it accurately reflects the relationship between the number of bits per pixel and the quality of the image.

    What happens to the intensity of an ultrasound beam when the beam's cross-sectional area remains unchanged while the amplitude of the wave triples.

    • It triples

    • Increases ninefold

    • Remains the same

    • None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Increases ninefold
    Explanation
    When the amplitude of an ultrasound wave triples, the intensity of the ultrasound beam increases ninefold. This is because intensity is directly proportional to the square of the amplitude. Therefore, tripling the amplitude will result in the intensity being multiplied by 3^2, which equals 9.

    Which of the following will result in the greatest number of shades of gray in a digital image display?

    • Large pixels with many bits/pixel

    • Small pixels with few bits/pixel

    • Many TV lines per frame

    • High contrast

    • Narrow dynamic range

    Correct Answer
    A. Large pixels with many bits/pixel
    Explanation
    Large pixels with many bits per pixel will result in the greatest number of shades of gray in a digital image display. This is because larger pixels allow for more information to be captured and represented in each pixel, while having more bits per pixel increases the number of possible grayscale values that can be assigned to each pixel. Therefore, combining large pixels with many bits per pixel will result in a higher level of detail and a wider range of shades of gray in the image.

    The amplitude of an acoustic wave decreases from 27 pascals to 9 pascals.  If the initial power in the wave was 27 watts, what is the wave final power?

    • 3 watts

    • 9 watts

    • 1 watt

    • None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. 3 watts
    Explanation
    The initial power in the wave is given as 27 watts. The amplitude of the wave decreases from 27 pascals to 9 pascals. The power of a wave is directly proportional to the square of its amplitude. Therefore, if the amplitude decreases by a factor of 3 (from 27 to 9), the power will decrease by a factor of 3 squared, which is 9. Therefore, the final power of the wave is 3 watts.

    What happens to an acoustic beams's intensity when the power in the beam increases by 25% while the cross sectional area of the beam remain the same?

    • It increased by 25%

    • Increases by 75%

    • It increases by 50%

    • Decreases by 25%

    Correct Answer
    A. It increased by 25%
    Explanation
    When the power in the acoustic beam increases by 25% while the cross-sectional area remains the same, the intensity of the beam also increases by 25%. This is because intensity is directly proportional to power, and since the power has increased by 25%, the intensity will also increase by the same percentage.

    _____________ is the distance covered by one cycle

    • Pulse length

    • Wavelength

    • Cycle distance

    • Cycle duration

    Correct Answer
    A. Wavelength
    Explanation
    Wavelength is the distance covered by one cycle. It is a measure of the length between two consecutive points of a wave that are in phase. In other words, it represents the distance between two identical points on a wave, such as two crests or two troughs. Therefore, wavelength is the correct answer as it accurately describes the distance covered by one complete cycle of a wave.

    The more bits per pixel

    • The better the resolution

    • The higher the pizel density

    • The more shades of gray

    • Higer reliability

    Correct Answer
    A. The more shades of gray
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "the more shades of gray." This means that as the number of bits per pixel increases, the resolution improves, resulting in a higher pixel density. This allows for a greater range of shades of gray to be displayed, which ultimately leads to higher image quality and more accurate representation of colors and details. Additionally, having more shades of gray enhances the reliability of the image by reducing banding or color artifacts.

    If we increase the frequency, the near zone length is

    • Increased

    • Decreased

    • Unchanged

    Correct Answer
    A. Increased
    Explanation
    When the frequency is increased, the near zone length is increased. The near zone refers to the region close to the source of the waves, where the wavefronts are not yet fully developed. As the frequency increases, the wavelength decreases, causing the wavefronts to become closer together. This results in a longer near zone length, as the waves take more time to fully develop and spread out. Therefore, increasing the frequency leads to an increased near zone length.

    • Diamagnetic

    • Paramagnetic

    • Superparamagnetic

    • Ferromagnetic

    Correct Answer
    A. Diamagnetic
    Explanation
    Diamagnetic substances are those that exhibit a very slight negative or repelling effect when placed in an externally applied magnetic field. This is due to the fact that the electrons in these substances are all paired up and their magnetic moments cancel out, resulting in a weak repulsion. Diamagnetic substances have low and negative susceptibility, meaning they are weakly repelled by magnetic fields.

    All of the following will improve temporal resolution EXCEPT

    • Increased line density

    • Single rather than multi focus

    • Higher frame rate

    • Shallower depth of view

    • Slower speed of sound in a medium

    Correct Answer
    A. Increased line density
    Explanation
    Increased line density refers to the number of scan lines used in an ultrasound image. The more scan lines there are, the higher the spatial resolution, which allows for better visualization of small structures. Therefore, increased line density will actually improve temporal resolution, as it allows for more frequent updates of the image over time. Therefore, the correct answer is "increased line density."

    All of the following statements reqarding in-vitro bioeffects are true EXCEPT

    • In vitro bioeffects conclusions are clinically relevant

    • In vitro bioeffects are always real

    • In vitro bioeffects are very important

    • In vitro bioeffects may not be applicable to clinical settings

    Correct Answer
    A. In vitro bioeffects conclusions are clinically relevant
    Explanation
    In vitro bioeffects refer to the effects observed in biological systems outside of a living organism, such as in a laboratory setting. While in vitro bioeffects can provide valuable insights and information, the statement that "in vitro bioeffects conclusions are clinically relevant" is not entirely true. In vitro studies may not always accurately represent the complex and dynamic conditions found within a living organism, and therefore, the conclusions drawn from these studies may not directly translate to clinical settings. Clinical relevance is typically determined through in vivo studies, which involve testing in living organisms.

    • Superparamagnetic

    • Ferromagnetic

    Correct Answer
    A. Superparamagnetic
    Explanation
    Superparamagnetic substances exhibit positive susceptibility, meaning they are attracted to a magnetic field. They are stronger than paramagnetic substances but weaker than ferromagnetic substances. Superparamagnetic substances are used as T2 contrast agents, which means they enhance the visibility of certain tissues or structures in medical imaging. Therefore, the correct answer is superparamagnetic.

    This type magnetic shielding uses metal, usually steel, in the scan room walls to contain the fringe field

    • Passive

    • Active

    Correct Answer
    A. Passive
    Explanation
    Passive magnetic shielding refers to the use of metal, typically steel, in the walls of the scan room to confine the fringe field. This type of shielding does not require any external power source or active control mechanisms. Instead, it relies on the inherent magnetic properties of the metal to redirect and absorb the magnetic field, preventing it from escaping the scan room. This passive approach is effective in containing the fringe field and minimizing its impact on the surrounding environment without the need for active interventions.

    Compare two sound waves. A and B.  The frequency of a wave A is one-third that of wave B.  How does the period of a wave A compare the period of wave B?

    • A is one-third as long a B

    • A is the same as wave B

    • A is three times as long as B

    • Cannot be determined

    Correct Answer
    A. A is three times as long as B
    Explanation
    The period of a wave is the time it takes for one complete cycle of the wave to occur. Since the frequency of wave A is one-third that of wave B, it means that wave A takes three times longer to complete one cycle compared to wave B. Therefore, the period of wave A is three times as long as the period of wave B.

    What componet of a transducer changes electrial to mechanical and mechanical back to electrical engery?

    • PZT

    • Scan converter

    • Demodulator

    • Receiver

    Correct Answer
    A. PZT
    Explanation
    PZT stands for lead zirconate titanate, which is a type of ceramic material commonly used in transducers. PZT is known for its piezoelectric properties, meaning it can convert electrical energy into mechanical energy and vice versa. In the context of a transducer, the PZT component is responsible for converting electrical signals into mechanical vibrations, which are then transmitted into the body or medium being imaged. These mechanical vibrations then bounce back and are converted back into electrical signals by the PZT, allowing the transducer to receive and detect echoes. Therefore, PZT is the component that changes electrical to mechanical and mechanical back to electrical energy in a transducer.

    What measures the output of the a transducer?

    • Receiver

    • Display

    • Hydrometer

    • Hydrophone

    Correct Answer
    A. Hydrophone
    Explanation
    A hydrophone is a transducer that measures the output of a transducer. It is specifically designed to detect and measure underwater sound waves, making it the most suitable option for measuring the output of a transducer in an underwater environment. A receiver is a general term and does not specifically measure the output of a transducer. A display is used to show information but does not directly measure the output. A hydrometer is used to measure the specific gravity or density of a liquid, so it is not the correct option for measuring the output of a transducer.

    This type of magnetic shielding uses other magnets and their associated magnetic field to confine the field of the main magnet

    • Passive

    • Active

    Correct Answer
    A. Active
    Explanation
    Active magnetic shielding refers to the use of additional magnets and their magnetic fields to contain or redirect the magnetic field of the main magnet. This technique actively manipulates the magnetic field to minimize its effects on the surrounding environment. By using active magnetic shielding, the main magnet's field can be confined and controlled more effectively compared to passive magnetic shielding, which relies on materials to block or absorb the magnetic field.

    Permanent magnets have field strengths of

    • 0.5 - 1 T

    • 0.06 -0.35T

    • 1-3 T

    • Up to 10 T

    Correct Answer
    A. 0.06 -0.35T
    Explanation
    Permanent magnets have field strengths ranging from 0.06 to 0.35 Tesla (T). This means that the magnetic field produced by these magnets can have a strength between 0.06 T and 0.35 T. The range of field strengths is relatively low compared to other options, such as 1-3 T or up to 10 T, indicating that permanent magnets typically have weaker magnetic fields.

    Which of the following wave is ultrasonic and least useful in diagnotic ultrasound?

    • 2 MHz

    • 2000 Hz

    • 24 kHz

    • 7.5 MHz

    Correct Answer
    A. 24 kHz
    Explanation
    Ultrasonic waves are sound waves with frequencies higher than the upper limit of human hearing, which is typically around 20 kHz. The given options include frequencies of 2 MHz, 2000 Hz, 24 kHz, and 7.5 MHz. Out of these options, 24 kHz is the only frequency that falls within the audible range of human hearing, making it least useful in diagnostic ultrasound. Diagnostic ultrasound typically utilizes frequencies in the range of 2 MHz to 15 MHz, which allows for better resolution and imaging of internal structures.

    The digital scan converter has a number of pixels assigned to each bit.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The statement is false because a digital scan converter does not have pixels assigned to each bit. In a digital scan converter, pixels are assigned to each sample or data point, not to each bit. The number of pixels assigned to each sample or data point depends on the resolution of the scan converter.

    Which transducer would be best to image superficial structures?

    • Small diameter, high frequency

    • Small diameter, low frequency

    • Large diameter, high frequency

    • Large diameter, low frequency

    Correct Answer
    A. Small diameter, high frequency
    Explanation
    A small diameter transducer with a high frequency would be best to image superficial structures. This is because a small diameter transducer can focus the ultrasound beam more precisely, allowing for better resolution of superficial structures. Additionally, a high frequency transducer can provide detailed images with better resolution, making it ideal for imaging shallow structures.

    The sonographer cannot change, directly or indirectly, the duty factor of an US machines.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The duty factor of an ultrasound machine refers to the amount of time the machine is transmitting ultrasound waves compared to the total time it is on. This duty factor cannot be changed by the sonographer, either directly or indirectly. Therefore, the statement is false.
