Which of the following describes the primary advantage of a 1.5D array over a 1D array?
A. the 1.5D array eliminates the need for a stand-off pad for superficial imaging
B. the 1.5D array can produce a trapezoid field of view while the 1D array can only produce a rectangular
field of view
C. the 1.5D array allows for 3D imaging while the 1D array does not

following techniques would assist in documenting the entire thyroid gland on a single image?
A. spatial compounding
B. electronic focusing
C. 3D volume rendering
D. panoramic imaging - panoramic imaging

B. sonographers should wash their hands after each exam, even if gloves were used
C. all biopsy needles should be sent out for sterilization after each use
D. gel bottles should be sanitized daily using disinfectant cleanser - all biopsy needles should be
sent out for sterilization after each use
Which of the following correctly describes the color displayed on the image?
A. the color scale should be reduced so that the entire vessel is filled with blue color
B. the color scale should be reduced so that the entire vessel is filled with red color
C. the red and blue colors indicate that flow is moving in two different directions simultaneously in the
vessel
D. the heel-to-toe method can be used to change the course of the vessel across the image and this will
allow the vessel to accurately display a single color - the heel-to-toe method can be used to
change the course of the vessel across the image and this will allow the vessel to accurately display a
single color
