✍️ Sample CAMRT Questions & Answers
1. A patient with a pacemaker presents for an MRI examination. What is the most appropriate action?
MR technologists must verify the pacemaker model, determine if it is MR-conditional, and consult the ordering physician and MRI physicist before proceeding.
2. What is the function of the 'last image hold' (LIH) feature in fluoroscopic equipment?
LIH captures and displays the last acquired fluoroscopic frame as a static image, allowing the operator to review the image without continuing to expose the patient to radiation.
3. Which of the following is a key component of obtaining valid informed consent before performing a medical imaging procedure?
Valid informed consent requires that the patient receives a clear explanation of the procedure, its expected benefits, any significant risks, and available alternatives, allowing them to make an informed decision. A generic admission form is insufficient for specific procedures, and information must be provided in an understandable manner.
4. How do PA and oblique projections of the hand differ?
The 45-degree oblique separates overlapping metacarpals.
5. What is the standard imaging protocol for suspected pneumothorax?
Erect PA on expiration makes the pneumothorax proportionally more visible.
6. What ethical considerations apply when participating in research imaging?
Research imaging requires additional ethical safeguards including REB approval and specific consent.
