Chest Imaging

One of the post-processing technique in CT chest/thorax is MPR which is creating other planes of images (sagittal & coronal) from the axial. What is MPR stand for?

• Multiplanar reformation

• Maximum intensity projection

• Minimum intensity projection

• Multiplanar redistribution

How the arms positining during the CT chest/thorax?

• Arms by side

• Arms elevated above head

• Arms on the chest

• Arms on the abdomen

Why in CT chest/thorax, the shortest scanning time is very important?

• To produce lung window images

• To produce mediastinal window images

• To reduce the motion artifact due to heart & inspiration

• To reduce patient dose

The best setting to rule out heart tissue in CT chest/thorax by using _______________ window images.

• mediastinal

• lung

• bone

The best setting to rule out interstitial disease inside the lungs in CT chest/thorax by using _______________ window images.

• mediastinal

• lung

• bone

Hight Resolution Computed Tomography (HRCT) of the lung using _____________

• thick slice thickness

• thin slice thickness

• large FOV

• single-slice

CT of the airway (CT bronchography) is routinely performed during __________

• inspiration

• expiration

Radiographic image of the thoracic cavity?

• chest x-ray (CXR)

• computed tomography (CT) scan of the chest

• magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the chest

• ventilation-perfusion (V/Q) scan

Computer-generated series of x-ray images show thoracic structures in cross section and other planes?

• computed tomography (CT) scan of the chest

• ventilation-perfusion (V/Q) scan

• chest x-ray (CXR)

• magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the chest

Magnetic waves create detailed images of the chest in frontal, lateral, cross-sectional, and other planes?

• computed tomography (CT) scan of the chest

• magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the chest

• ventilation-perfusion (V/Q) scan

• bronchoscopy
