Can You Pass This Hardest Medical Test? - Quiz

Being a medical student, you undoubtedly know a lot about the human body and how the organs function daily. I have designed what has come to be seen as the hardest medical test that only smart people can tackle. If you consider yourself to be in the same class, then give it a shot and see how high you score.


Questions and Answers
  • 1. 

    Which part of vertebral canal will show secondary curves with concavity backwards?

    • A.

      Cervical

    • B.

      Thoracic

    • C.

      Sacral

    • D.

      Coccyx

    Correct Answer
    A. Cervical
    Explanation
    The cervical and lumbar regions of the vertebral canal show secondary curves, also known as lordotic curves, with concavity backwards. These curves develop after birth and are associated with the body's adaptation to upright posture and bipedal locomotion. The thoracic and sacral regions, on the other hand, exhibit primary curves (kyphotic curves) with concavity forwards.

    Correct Answer
    A. X-linked hypopHospHatemic rickets
    Explanation
    Myopathy refers to muscle weakness or dysfunction. X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets is a genetic disorder that affects the bones and teeth, causing softening and weakness. However, it does not typically cause myopathy. On the other hand, oncogenic osteomalacia and nutritional osteomalacia are both conditions that result in bone softening and can cause myopathy. Cushing syndrome, which is caused by excessive cortisol production, can also lead to muscle weakness and myopathy. Therefore, the correct answer is X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets.

    • A.

      Prosthetic Mitral valve

    • B.

      Prosthetic Aortic Valve

    • C.

      Device closure of ASD

    • D.

      Device closure of PDA

    Correct Answer
    D. Device closure of PDA
    Explanation
    Intracardiac implants can be identified in an xray based on the position and the morphology of the implant.
    Prosthetic Mitral valve - Ball and cage (with 4 struts) is visualised, directed towards apex. Located at the region of mitral valve
    Prosthetic aortic valve - Ball and cage (with 3 struts) is visualised, directed upwards, located at region of aortic valve.
    Device closure of ASD - Dumb bell shaped, located at site of interatrial septum

    • C.

      Interlocking nail

    • D.

      DCP

    Correct Answer
    C. Interlocking nail
    Explanation
    K nail is a clover shaped ( in cross section ) intramedullary rod used for internal fixation of long bone fractures. K wire is a thin wire used in fixing bone fragments and for skeletal traction. Interlocking nails (shown here) are also used in long bone fractures as intramedullary fixation. But they have screws at the ends to hold them in position (unlike k nail, which does not have any screws). DCP (Dynamic compression plates) are a type of plate fixation. They are seen outside the medullary cavity.
