1/5 Questions

Which resolution is determined by frame rate?
- Temporal resolution
- Axial resolution
- Spatial resolution
- Lateral resolution

About This Quiz

This is a sample quiz to assess a students ability to select equipment parameters to optimize temporal resolution.

2.

Which system setting would increase frame rate?
- Decreased depth
- Multiple focus
- Wide sector
- High line density
Correct Answer

A. Decreased depth

Explanation

multiple focus, wide sector and high line density would all decrease frame rate

Rate this question:
3.

Which system setting could increase the listening time and decrease temporal resolution?
- Depth
- Power
- Amplification
- Compression
Correct Answer

A. Depth

Explanation

power, amplification and compression have no effect on temporal resolution

4.

Which resolution would be the most important when evaluating the heart with respect to motion?
- Temporal
- Axial
- Spatial
- Lateral
Correct Answer

A. Temporal

Explanation

The most important resolution when evaluating the heart with respect to motion would be temporal resolution. Temporal resolution refers to the ability to capture and distinguish rapid changes over time. In the context of evaluating the heart, it is crucial to have high temporal resolution to accurately assess the motion and function of the heart. This allows for the detection of abnormalities such as arrhythmias or abnormal contractions that may not be visible with lower temporal resolution.

5.

Which resolution is made worse in Image B by increasing the number of focal zones?
- Temporal
- Lateral
- Spatial
- Axial
Correct Answer

A. Temporal

Explanation

temporal resolution is worse with multiple focal zones but lateral resolution is improved
