The ultrasound system relies on the ____________________ for accurate recording of motion clips on
an echo
a. R wave and T wave on the EKG

d. system timer to be set at 3 seconds - CORRECT ANSWER-a
Which of the following describes how to differentiate a ruptured chordae attached to a flail anterior
mitral leaflet from a vegetation attached to the anterior mitral leaflet?
a. Flail leaflets usually cause regurgitation and vegetations normally cause stenosis.
b. Mitral vegetations normally form on the atrial side of the valve and the ruptured chordae related to a
flail leaflet will be identified on the ventricular side of the valve.
c. Vegetations are much more hypoechoic than the chordae tendinae.
d. A flail mitral leaflet demonstrates a distinct appearance on m-mode that is easily differentiated from
the m-mode appearance of vegetation on the valve. - CORRECT ANSWER-b

How do you measure the strain rate for a specific
segment of the left ventricular wall?
, A: Measure the wall thickness in systole and diastole
B: use m-mode to demonstrate the velocity of the segment of interest and the adjacent normal
segments
C: Take 2-3 tissue Doppler samples from the area of interest
D: Take 2-3 PW Doppler samples from the area of interest - CORRECT ANSWER-c

in the vertical position of the EKG tracing across the
screen:
A: the skin contact with the electrodes is poor
B: the EKG should be increased to a maximum level
C: the alcohol used to clean the skin is causing artifact
D: a cell phone or other nearby electrical device is causing interference - CORRECT ANSWER-a
