radiographs taken in the trauma bay usually with a(n)
__________. - - CORRECT ANSWERS - >>>portable x-ray

by Cervical Spine Radiographic Evaluation (CSRE) and should
only be performed when CSRE is unavailable. - - CORRECT
ANSWERS - >>>FALSE. Cervical Spine Radiographic Evaluation
(CSRE) has been largely replaced by Computed Tomography

machine? -
- CORRECT ANSWERS - >>>Role 2
,Members of the trauma team should have __________ aprons
and thyroid shields available near the trauma bay for radiation

shielding should move a short distance away from the x-ray
unit. The recommended minimal distance is __________ feet. -

specificity of
__________. - - CORRECT ANSWERS - >>>98%
T/F: The FAST exam remains the most sensitive test for hollow
viscus injury and mesenteric injury. - - CORRECT ANSWERS -

A FAST examination is performed with a portable hand-held
machine most commonly using a standard 3-7 MHz curved
array __________ probe. -
- CORRECT ANSWERS - >>>Ultra Sound (US)

doses of and rates of contrast administration.
T/F: All patients evacuated through casualty evacuation should
have images sent electronically ahead of time as well as have a
CD created to send with the patient as a backup. - - CORRECT
ANSWERS - >>>TRUE
T/F: Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is widely used in
theater, as its utility in the acute management of combat
trauma was extensively established during Operation Enduring
Freedom. - - CORRECT ANSWERS - >>>FALSE. While Magnetic
