Ch 15- Trauma/mobile

Bontrager ch 15 self test questions- trauma, mobile and surgical

Question
A battery powered, battery operated mobile xray unit can climb a maximum incline of how many degrees?
Which type of mobile xray unit is self propelled?
Which type of mobile xray unit is lighter in weight?
True/false: C-arms are most generally stationary fluoro units used in surgery.
True/false: C arm fluoro unit can be rotated a minimum of 180 degrees
True/false: The AP projection with the xray tube placed directly above the anatomy during a C arm procedure is recommended to minimize OID
True/false: Digital C arm units can store images on videotape or computer hard disk memory.
What is the term for the process of holding one image on the C arm monitor while also providing continuous fluoro?
Fracture through the pedicles of C2
Fracture of proximal half of ulna with dislocation of radial head
Fracture due to a disease process
Fracture resulting in an isolated bone fragment
Subluxation of the radial head on a child
Fracture along base of first metacarpal
Fracture of distal phalanx with finger extended
Also called a March fracture
Also called a chauffeur's fracture
True/false: Any trauma study requires at least two projections as close to 90 degrees opposite from eachother as possible
True/false: On an initial study of a long bone, both joints should be included for each projection
True/false: Collimation on trauma cases can lead to cutoff of key anatomy and pathology therefore it should be limited to the size of the IR
The technologist must be at least _____ from the xray tube during a mobile
True/false: Wearing a protective lead apron is optional if the tech is at least 8 feet away from both the tube and the patient during a mobile
True/false: The exposure dose is greater on the image intensifier side than on the xray tube side with the C-arm in the horizontal configuration.
True/false: A 30 degree tilt of the C arm from the vertical perspective will increase the dose by a factor of three to the head and neck region.
What should be the final step that the tech takes before returning a trauma patient to the ER following a radiographic procedure?
True/false: Angiography of the aortic arch for the trauma patient has declined due to increased use of CR angiography
What is the correct term for the displacement of a bone from a joint?
What is the correct term for a partial displacement?
What term describes a poor alignment between the ends of a fractured bone?
What term describes a bending of a distal fracture away from the midline?
A tech using the C arm receives 125 mR/hr standing 2 feet from the patient. What is the exposure rate if the tech moves to a distance of 6 feet?
A tech receives 30 mR/hr during C arm fluoro. What is the total exposure dose if the procedure takes 8 minutes of fluoro time?
Radiologists often use the Salter Harris system to classify _____ fractures.
A patient with a possible pleural effusion in the right lung enters the emergency room. The patient is unable to stand or sit erect. What position would best demonstrate this condition?
Where is the CR centered for an AP semi-erect projection of the chest?
A patient with a crushing injury to the thorax enters the emergency room. The patient is on a backboard and cannot be moved. Which projections can be performed to determine whether the sternum is fractured?
