The yellow star is located in the near field.

The green arrow points to caudal.

The yellow arrow points to ventral / anterior.

The red arrow points to cranial.

Question 2
Which of the following answers is WRONG? In abdominal ultrasound examinations...

we commonly use a frequency between 2-6 MHz.

a curved array transducer is used normally.

the best posi on for the focus is between 60-80% of the maximum of the depth.

the op mal gain is achieved when anechoic structures (fluid) appear black on the screen.

it is never necessary to adjust the depth of the sound beam.

Question 3
Which of the following answers is WRONG? Mirror artifacts...

show us the same structure displayed twice.

are caused by a highly reflec ve surface.

appear behind gallstones.

are o en caused by the diaphragma.

are caused by reflec on of the soundbeam.

Question 4
Which ultrasound ar fact is shown in this image?

A typical mirror ar fact.

Increased echogenicity caused by reflec on.

Dorsal acous c shadowing.

Dorsal acous c enhancement.

Reverbera on ar fact.

Question 5
To display a structure located in the deeper por on of the examina on area you
have to...

use a high frequency linear probe.

reduce depth on your machine.

use a higher frequency.

adjust TGC in the near field.

increase depth, decrease frequency and set focus to the distal region of the
area.

Question 6
In this scan of the urinary bladder, we detect hyperechoic lines parallel to the
abdominal wall inside the bladder. What is the correct diagnosis?

00:10

Ar facts - reverbera ons from the structures in the near field (abdominal wall,
wall of the urinary bladder).

Mul ple stones within the bladder.

Mul ple tumours lying parallel to the abdominal wall.

Acute bleeding in the bladder.

A congenital disorder.

Question 7
When we increase the frequency of the ultrasound beam

We use ultrasound waves with a longer wavelength.

The ultrasound beam can reach the far field more easily (be er penetra on).

The picture is ge ng brighter.

The resolu on of your picture improves (be er resolu on).

We have to use the bu on „Gain“.

Question 8
This image shows a longitudinal scan of the female pelvis. Which of the following
statements is correct?

The red arrow points to an anechoic area with dorsal acous c enhancement.

Zysts contain fluid that blocks the ultrasound beam.

The blue arrow points to a fluid filled organ (bladder), this region is displayed
very bright on the screen.

Echofree means a very bright, echogenic area.

The red arrow points to an echogenic area with dorsal acous c shadowing.

Question 9
Which of the following answers is CORRECT? Dorsal acoustic shadowing...

appears behind structures filled with fluid.

is commonly found behind simple cysts.

is due to absorp on/reflec on of the ultrasound beam.

1.2.2018 Ultrasound basics and artifacts quiz | 123 Sonography

shows the same structure displayed twice.

is caused by repeated echos.

Question 10
Which of the following answers is WRONG?

Dorsal acous c enhancement is a helpful tool to iden fy simple cysts.

Parallel lines in the urinary bladder are a typical example for reverbera on ar fact.

Lateral shadowing commonly appears around simple cysts.

Dorsal acous c shadowing is caused by structures filled with fluid.

A typical example for a structure causing dorsal acous c shadowing are gallstones.
