Question 1

Radiographic skeletal survey images are appropriate in the diagnosis of:&#10;A)HIV.&#10;B)leukemia.&#10;C)multiple myeloma.&#10;D)non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

Accepted Answer

Radiographic skeletal survey images are a useful tool in the diagnosis of multiple myeloma, a cancer that affects bone marrow and causes skeletal abnormalities such as bone lesions, fractures, and osteoporosis. HIV, leukemia, and non-Hodgkin lymphoma do not typically produce the same type of bone abnormalities seen in multiple myeloma.

Question 2

Bruising frequently occurs with a variety of hemopoietic disorders due to a decreased _____ count.&#10;A)erythrocyte&#10;B)leukocyte&#10;C)lymphocyte&#10;D)platelet

Accepted Answer

Bruising can occur with a decreased platelet count because platelets help with blood clotting.

Question 3

Which imaging modality has the highest specificity in demonstrating lymphatic disease?&#10;A)CT&#10;B)MRI&#10;C)PET&#10;D)Radiography

Accepted Answer

PET (Positron Emission Tomography) has the highest specificity in demonstrating lymphatic disease because it can detect metabolic activity, which is often increased in areas affected by lymphatic diseases, making it more specific for identifying such conditions compared to other imaging modalities listed.

Question 4

What is the largest lymphoid organ in the body?&#10;A)Spleen&#10;B)Liver&#10;C)Thoracic duct&#10;D)Thymus

Accepted Answer

The spleen is often considered the largest lymphoid organ in the body, as it contains lymphocytes and filters blood to remove old or damaged red blood cells. While the liver and thoracic duct are involved in lymphoid and immune function, they are not considered organs of the lymphatic system. The thymus is a lymphoid organ but is generally smaller in size than the spleen.

Question 5

Which of the following is a common complication associated with multiple myeloma?&#10;A)Opportunist infections&#10;B)Renal failure&#10;C)Splenomegaly&#10;D)Hepatomegaly

Accepted Answer

Renal failure is a common complication associated with multiple myeloma due to the accumulation of abnormal proteins in the kidneys, leading to damage and reduced function. Opportunist infections may occur due to a weakened immune system, but it is not a common complication specifically associated with multiple myeloma. Splenomegaly and hepatomegaly may occur in some cases, but they are not common complications.

Question 6

Which of the following is the principal agent of AIDS in the United States?&#10;A)HIV-1&#10;B)HIV-2&#10;C)HIV-3&#10;D)Both a and b

Question 7

What enzyme can covert viral RNA into a DNA copy?&#10;A)Retrovirus&#10;B)Reverse transcriptase&#10;C)Monoclonal paraprotein&#10;D)CD4

Accepted Answer

Reverse transcriptase is an enzyme found in retroviruses, such as HIV, that can convert viral RNA into a DNA copy. Monoclonal paraprotein is a protein found in certain types of blood cancers, and CD4 is a protein found on the surface of cells that HIV binds to in order to enter and infect them.

Question 8

Which of the following is the most radiosensitive blood cell type?&#10;A)Erythrocytes&#10;B)Leukocytes&#10;C)Lymphocytes&#10;D)Thrombocytes

Accepted Answer

Lymphocytes are the most radiosensitive blood cell type due to their high rate of cell division and shorter lifespan compared to other blood cells. This makes them more vulnerable to radiation-induced DNA damage and apoptosis.

Question 9

Which type of blood cells contains various antigens that determine blood type?&#10;A)Erythrocytes&#10;B)Leukocytes&#10;C)Lymphocytes&#10;D)Thrombocytes

Accepted Answer

Erythrocytes, also known as red blood cells, contain various antigens on their surface that determine blood type. These antigens include A and B antigens that are used to determine the ABO blood group system, as well as Rh antigens that are used to determine the Rh blood group system.
