Zusammenfassung der Ressource

Frage 1

Frage
What type of radiation occurs when using ultrasonography?
Antworten
  • Mechanical
  • Gamma
  • Beta
  • Ultraviolet
  • Sound

Frage 2

Frage
What are the two types of waves that ultrasonography detects?
Antworten
  • Compression
  • Shear
  • Supression
  • Tension
  • Short wavelength

Frage 3

Frage
What is the region of frequency for ultrasonography?
Antworten
  • 1-20MHz
  • 100-250MHz
  • 1000-2500MHz

Frage 4

Frage
What is absorption? (Ultrasonography)
Antworten
  • When the US energy is converted into heat
  • When US energy is unable to be detect
  • When the US energy reaches a point and bounces back to the detector

Frage 5

Frage
What factors can cause the amplitude to be reduced during an ultrasound? (Three answers)
Antworten
  • Tissue Properties
  • Frequency
  • Distance travelled
  • Strength of the wavelength

Frage 6

Frage
Is this the correct definition for refraction? When some or all energy is diverted from its original path
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 7

Frage
Is this the correct definition for diffraction? Divergence of a beam from sound source
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 8

Frage
Is this the correct definition of Scatter? Some energy is reflected from a boundary
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 9

Frage
Explain attenuation....
Antworten
  • The loss of power or amplitude of the ultrasound signal as it passes through tissue
  • The ability for the ultrasound to 'attenuate' a low signal, thus making it more detectable
  • Attenuation = absorption + scatter + reflection
  • This is the term given to the adaptation of the signal as it finds the target tissue.

Frage 10

Frage
Tick all the different types of ultrasound scans
Antworten
  • Continuous * pulsed wave
  • Pulse-Echo principles (A-scan)
  • B-Mode image
  • Transmit focussing
  • Focused
  • Simple
  • Z-mode

Frage 11

Frage
Is this the correct definition for the Doppler effect? The difference between the transmitted frequency (Ft) and the received frequency (Fr)
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 12

Frage
Is it true that colour Dopplers show the difference between arteries and veins?
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 13

Frage
Which of these are relevant to Power Doppler, but not Colour Doppler?
Antworten
  • Angle independent
  • Better Boundary detection
  • Detect Blood flow
  • Image noise in random flashes of colour

Frage 14

Frage
Choose the benefits of using ultrasound...
Antworten
  • Real-time Guidance
  • Non-ionising radiation
  • Speed
  • Portable

Frage 15

Frage
What is the correct equation for blood pressure?
Antworten
  • Cardiac output x Total peripheral resistance
  • Cardiac output x aortic pressure
  • Heart rate x Stroke volume

Frage 16

Frage
Tick the different layers of a blood vessel
Antworten
  • Tunica Media
  • Tunica intima
  • Tunia Adventitia
  • Tunica medium
  • Tunica interna

Frage 17

Frage
Is it true or false that perivascular nerves are found on the outside of the tunica adventitia?
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 18

Frage
Is this statement true? When vascular smooth muscle relaxes vessel diameter decreases
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 19

Frage
What vessels are key in controlling resistance for circulation?
Antworten
  • Small arteries & arterioles
  • large arteries & arteriole
  • Veins
  • Venules

Frage 20

Frage
Define; Isometric tension recording
Antworten
  • Measuring tension generated by the vascular wall with diameter of the vessel constantly changing.
  • Measuring tension generated by the vascular wall with diameter of the vessel remaining constant

Frage 21

Frage
Would isometric tension recording occur, in vitro or in vivo?
Antworten
  • In vitro
  • in vivo

Frage 22

Frage
Is this statement true? Wire myography requires dissection skills and is better used for small vessels with an internal diameter of 100-400 micrometers.
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 23

Frage
What do changes in tension of a blood vessel indicate?
Antworten
  • Vasodilation
  • Vasoconstriction

Antworten
  • Causes muscle contraction
  • Causes a tear in the endothelial cells
  • Causes muscle relaxation
  • Causes a complex molecular signalling pathway that causing a release of further signalling substances

Frage 27

Frage
