RADIOLOGY MCQ
1. Periaoical radiograph assesses the following
a) Crown/root fractures. b) detection of periapical pathology. C) status of interdental region. D) all of the above 2. The gold standard imaging technigue for endodontic treatment is ………………. a) bitewing projection. b) panoramic projection c) occlusal projection d) periapical projection 3. Which of the following is false concerning long cone technique………. a) the central beam of x- ray is directed at right angle to the film and teeth. b) the film is placed parallel to the long axis of the tooth. c) the long cone of the tube decreases the distance between the source of the object resulting in decreased size of focal spot 4. The following are clinical uses of occlusal radiograph except. a) locating stones in the ducts of submandibular glands. b) to locate foreign bodies in the jaws. c) locate supernumerary teeth. d) assessing the status of interdental region 5. Which of the following is false concerning bitewing radiograph. a) it is used for detecting interproximal caries in the early stages of development before it manifest clinically. b) it reveals secondary caries below the restoration c) it helps in evaluating the interproximal bone condition d) it evaluates interproximal surfaces of 3-4 upper and lower teeth simultaneously e) none of the above 6. Advantages of panoramic radiography include the following except a)offers a dose advantage over large number of intra oral radiographs b) gives basic assessment of the osseous status of TMJ c) preliminary screening radiograph to assess the dentition and bone support d) to identify imparted teeth and view the position of dental implant e) it has high spatial resolution compared with intraoral radiographs 7. The projection for visualization of maxillary sinuses especially is compare inter radio-opacities is a)submentovertex b) reverse towne’s c)occipitomental d) cephalometric 8. The projection for evaluating spatial relationship btw the cranial and dental structures is a) occipitomental b) reverse towne’s c) cephalometric d postero-anterior 9. Occipitomental view can be used to visualize the following a) maxillary sinus b) frontal sinuses c) ethmoid air cells d) sphenoid sinuses e) all of the above 10. The following id false about submentovertex a) useful in diagnosis of fractures of zygomatic arch b) used in evaluating the lateral and posterior border of the maxillary sinuses and ethmoidal air cells c) used to determine fractures of the condylar neck d) used to visualize the skull base and condyle superimposed on the condylar neck and mandibular rami 11. The following is true of reverse towne’s view a) used in evaluating the lateral and posterior border of the maxillary sinuses and ethmoidal air cells b) useful in diagnosis of fractures of zygomatic arch c) used to determine the fractures of the condylar neck of the mandible d) used to visualize the skull base and condyle superimposed on the condylar neck and mandibular rami 12. Which is false concerning 2D images a)buccal-lingual plane is easy to assess b)anatomic structures surrounding the tooth may superimpose c) 2D radiographs shows less severe bone loss than is actually present d) radiograph do not reveal the soft tissue to hard tissue relationships 13. The following is false of uses of 2D images a) primary uses is to supplement clinical examination b) it provides excellent images for most dental radiographic needs c) it provides detail evaluation of images in the third dimension d) none of the above 14. The following is false of CT a) it has poor resolution compared to the conventional radiographs b) high radiation exposure c) radiation scatter because of metal d) has limitation in diagnosing dental fractures(like small fissures) which are below resolution capacity of CT and may result in false negative reading 15. The following is false of CBCT a) it is principally indicated for imaging hard tissues b) scanning time is lengthy btw 15-20s and requires patient to stay completely still c) major advantage of CBCT over CT is the considerably low effective radiation dose d) it performs more than one rotation to produce a series of 2D images which are reconstructed into 3D
