When the posterior-anterior (PA) view is compared w/ the anterior-posterior (AP) view: a. heart shadow on the PA view is larger b. heart shadow on the AP view is larger c. apecies are more easily visualized on the AP view d. PA view is often a portab b. the heart shadow on the AP view is larger
Which of the following has the greatest radiodensity? a. air b. fat c. water d. bone d. bone

When evaluating a PA film of the chest, you note that the right costophrenic angles are blunted. What does this suggest? a. pneumothorax b. presence of an infiltrate in the right lower lobe c. presence of atelectasis in the right base d. presence of d. presence of a pleural effusion on the right

When viewing a V/Q scan, you note ventilation to be even on all views. On the perfusion scan, you note absence of perfusion in the right apical posterior segment. This finding suggests: a. pulmonary infiltrate b. atelectasis in the right apical posterio c. a possible pulmonary embolus
