C. Temporal
D. Spatial Resolution
C
Which of the following is consistent with improved temporal resolution?
A. Color Doppler
B. More grey shades
C. more detail
D. higher frame rate
D
All of the following decrease temporal resolution except:
a. lower frame rate
b. deeper imaging
c. multi-focus
D. narrower sector
D
A sonographer adjusts an ultrasound scan to double the depth of view from 5 cm to 10 cm. What happens to the frame rate?
a. it is halved
b. it doubles
c. it increases from 5 to 10 Hz
d. it is unchanged
A
A sonographer adjusts an ultrasound scant to double the depth of view form 5 cm to 10 cm. If the frame rate remains the same, which one of the following also occurs?
a. increase line density
b. wider sector
c. mutli-sector imaging turned on
d. narrower sector
D
A sonographer adjusts an ultrasound machine to changed the sector size from 90 to 45 degrees. Nothing else changes. What happens to the frame rate?
a. it is doubled
b. it remains unchanged
c. it is halved
d. it is tripled
A
A sonographer adjusts an ultrasound system to change the sector size from 90 to 45 degrees. The frame rate was unchanged. What else must have happened?
A. temporal resolution was doubled
B. sector size was doubled
C. line density was doubled
D. imaging depth was halved
C
A sonographer, using phased array ultrasound system, turns off the multi-focus feature. What is the most likely consequence of this action?
a. frame rate decreases
b. temporal resolution degrades
c. imaging depth increases
d. temporal resolution improves
D
A sonographer increases the line density from 1lines per degree of sector to 3 liens per degree of sector. What is the most liely consequence of this action?
A. frame rate increases
B. temporal resolution decreases
C. imaging quality decreases
D. temporal resolution increases
B
A sonographer reduces the sector angle form 90 degrees to 30 degrees. At the same time, the ultrasound system automatically increases the line density from 1 line per degree to 2 lines per degree. No other changes are made. What will happen to the frame rate?
A. increases
B. decreases
C. remains unchanged
A
A sonographer reduces the sector angle form 90 degrees to 30 degrees. At the same time, the ultrasound system automatically increases the line density form 1 liner per degree to 3 lines per degree. No other changes are made. What will happen to temporal resolution?
A. increases
B. decreases
C. remains the same
