Resumo de Recurso

Questão 1

Questão
What type of radiation occurs when using ultrasonography?
Responda
  • Mechanical
  • Gamma
  • Beta
  • Ultraviolet
  • Sound

Questão 2

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

Questão 3

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

Questão 4

Questão
What is absorption? (Ultrasonography)
Responda
  • 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

Questão 5

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

Questão 6

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

Questão 7

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

Questão 8

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

Questão 9

Questão
Explain attenuation....
Responda
  • 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.

Responda
  • True
  • False

Questão 12

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

Questão 13

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

Questão 14

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

Questão 15

Questão
What is the correct equation for blood pressure?
Responda

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

Responda
  • True
  • False

Questão 19

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

Questão 20

Questão
Define; Isometric tension recording
Responda
  • 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

Questão 21

Questão
Would isometric tension recording occur, in vitro or in vivo?
Responda
  • In vitro
  • in vivo

Questão 22

Questão
