Which of the following is called as basic "sectional" or "slice" radiography
1. Othopantomography
2. Cephalogram
3. Tomography
4. All of the above
Radiology
Answer: 3
The imaging technique called basic "sectional" or "slice" radiography is tomography.
According to the American Society of Aneasthesiologists, the physical status of a patient with mild systemic disease that limits activity but no incapacitating may be classified as

2. ASA II
3. ASA III
4. ASA IV
Radiology
Answer: 3
According to the American Society of Anesthesiologists, the physical status of a patient with mild systemic disease that limits activity but is not incapacitating may be classified as ASA II.
If shorter exposure time is needed for exposing dental firm
1. kVp can be increased
2. Mili ampere is decreased
3. Long cone can be used
4. Lead diaphragm is removed
Radiology
Answer: 1
If shorter exposure time is needed for exposing dental film, kVp can be increased.
Location and radiographic density make a talon cusp appear similar to
1) Delacerations
2) Concrescence
3) A supernumerary tooth
4) Dens in dente
Radiology
Answer: 3
1. Anodontia: This is the complete absence of teeth. It is a rare condition
where an individual fails to develop any teeth.
2. Oligodontia: This term is used when an individual has fewer teeth than the
typical dental formula, which is six incisors, two canines, two premolars, and
six molars in the permanent dentition (excluding the third molars or wisdom
teeth). The term "hypodontia" is often used synonymously with oligodontia, but
hypodontia can also refer to a broader range of conditions characterized by the
congenital absence of one or more teeth, whereas oligodontia is more
specifically the absence of six or more teeth.
3. Microdontia: This condition involves teeth that are smaller than normal. It
can affect either the primary or permanent dentition and may involve one tooth
or multiple teeth.
4. Dens in dente: This is a rare developmental anomaly where a tooth forms
within the dental crown of another tooth, typically in the form of a small
tooth-like structure. It is not a condition of tooth number but rather an
abnormality of tooth structure.
Higher kVp is
1. Disadvantageous to film
2. Disadvantageous to patient
3. Advantageous to film
4. All of the above
Radiology
Answer: 1
Higher kVp is disadvantageous to film.
Objects which cause attenuation of X-ray beam are shown as............in image
1. Radiolucent
2. Radiopaque
3. Gray
4. None of the above
Radiology
Answer: 2
Objects which cause attenuation of X-ray beam are shown as radiopaque in an
image.
Radiopaque materials absorb or block X-rays, leading to a reduced transmission
of the X-ray beam. This results in the appearance of white areas or shadows on
the X-ray image, indicating the presence of dense structures like bone, metal
restorations, or calculi. Radiolucent structures, on the other hand, allow
X-rays to pass through more freely, resulting in dark areas on the image.
Image of a hair appears on a radiograph which was exposed in a cassette. The hair would have been located in all of the following to produce this image except in
1. On the front of the cassette
2. Between film and front intensifying screen
3. Between film and back intensifying screen
4. On the film during development
Radiology
Answer: 4
Image of a hair appears on a radiograph which was exposed in a cassette. The hair would have been located in all of the following to produce this image except on the film during development.

1. Sinuses
2. Zygomatic fractures
3. Mandibular fractures
4. Maxillary fractures
Radiology
Answer: 3
Submentovertex view is best useful for mandibular fractures.
