    The thyroid gland is located at the level of which laryngeal cartilage?

    • Cricoid

    • Coricorid

    • Epiglottis

    • Cuneiform

    Correct Answer
    A. Cricoid
    Explanation
    The correct answer is cricoid. The cricoid cartilage is a ring-shaped cartilage located at the level of the thyroid gland in the neck. It is situated just below the thyroid cartilage, also known as the Adam's apple. The cricoid cartilage helps to support and protect the larynx and plays a crucial role in the production of sound during speech.

    • A

    • B

    • C

    • D

    Correct Answer
    A. B
    Explanation
    Arrow B points to the thyroid cartilage. The thyroid cartilage is a prominent structure in the neck and is commonly referred to as the Adam's apple. It is located in the anterior part of the neck and is easily identifiable on axial CT scans.

    Which cartilage forms the base of the larynx?

    • Thryroid

    • Epiglottis

    • Cricoid

    • Arytenoid

    Correct Answer
    A. Cricoid
    Explanation
    The cricoid cartilage forms the base of the larynx. It is a ring-shaped cartilage located just below the thyroid cartilage. The cricoid cartilage provides support and stability to the larynx, allowing it to function properly during speech and swallowing. It also plays a role in controlling the tension of the vocal cords.

    • A

    • B

    • C

    • D

    • E

    Correct Answer
    A. D
    Explanation
    In the given figure, arrow D points to the esophagus. The esophagus is the muscular tube that connects the throat (pharynx) to the stomach. It is located posterior to the trachea and can be identified in the image by its position and shape, as well as its proximity to other structures such as the thyroid gland and the vertebral column.

    The laminae of the thyroid cartilage unite anteriorly to form the:

    • Laryngela prominence

    • Superior thyroid notch

    • Superior horn

    • Inferior horn

    Correct Answer
    A. Laryngela prominence
    Explanation
    The laminae of the thyroid cartilage unite anteriorly to form the laryngeal prominence. This is also known as the Adam's apple, a visible protrusion in the neck, more prominent in males due to hormonal differences. The laryngeal prominence plays a role in protecting the vocal cords and is involved in voice production.

    What muscle forms the boundary for the anterior and posterior triangles in the neck?

    • Platysma

    • Middle scalene

    • Sternocleidomastoid

    • Trapezius

    Correct Answer
    A. Sternocleidomastoid
    Explanation
    The sternocleidomastoid muscle is a large muscle in the neck that runs diagonally from the sternum and clavicle to the mastoid process of the skull. It forms the boundary for the anterior and posterior triangles in the neck. The anterior triangle is formed by the midline of the neck, the mandible, and the anterior border of the sternocleidomastoid muscle, while the posterior triangle is formed by the posterior border of the sternocleidomastoid muscle, the clavicle, and the anterior border of the trapezius muscle. Therefore, the sternocleidomastoid muscle is the correct answer.

    Questions 40 through 43 refer to the figure below of a coronal, T1-weighted MRI of the piriform sinuses.Which arrow points to the thyroid carilage?

    • A

    • B

    • C

    • D

    Correct Answer
    A. D
    Explanation
    The correct answer is D. The arrow pointing to D indicates the location of the thyroid cartilage. The thyroid cartilage is a prominent structure in the neck and is commonly referred to as the "Adam's apple". In this MRI image, it appears as a bright white structure, indicating its high water content. The other arrows (A, B, and C) do not point to the thyroid cartilage and may represent different anatomical structures in the image.
