Where
would
a
pericardial
cyst
be
found?
-
✅✅
-When
the
technician
is
evaluating
an
echocardiography ,
a
pericardial
cyst
would
typically
be
found
along
the
right
costophrenic
angle.
These
cysts
are
rare,
but
the
best
angle
to
view
them
might
be
the
subcostal
view.
If
these
cysts
become
large,
they
have
the
potential
to
compress
some
of
the
adjacent
structures
and
cause
such
symptoms
as
chest
pain,
coughing,
and
dyspnea.

With
the
characteristics
of
digital
memories,
regarding
the
highest
number
stored,
if
the
decimal
is
63,
which
of
the
following
would
be
considered
correct
for
the
binary?
-
✅✅
-Regarding
the
highest
number
stored,
if
the
decimal
is
63
the
binary
would
be:
111111.Find
this
by
dividing
63
by
2
and
recording
the
remainder .
63/2
is
31
with
a
remainder
of
1
31/2
is
15
with
a
remainder
of
1
15/2
is
7
with
a
remainder
of
1 7/2
is
3
with
a
remainder
of
1
3/2
is
1
with
a
remainder
of
1
2/1
is
0
with
a
remainder
of
1
Therefore
63
in
binary
is
111111
Which
of
the
following
terms
can
also
be
used
interchangeably
with
transverse
wave?
-
✅✅
-The
terms
SHEER
WAVE
and
TRANSVERSE
wave
can
be
used
interchangeably .
If
there
is
a
sound
wave
in
which
the
particle
motion
is
perpendicular
to
the
direction
of
wave
travel,
it
would
be
considered
a
transverse
wave
(sheer
wave).
Which
of
the
following
could
be
used
to
help
prevent
issues
when
advancing
the
guide
wireless
bidirectionnally
steerable
catheter
into
the
heart?
Chest-x-rays
Fluoroscopy
Cardiac
catheterization
Using
a
short
sheath
-
✅✅
-Fluoroscopy
When
this
guide
wireless
bidirectionally
steerable
catheter
is
being
inserted
into
the
heart,
a
fluoroscopy
can
be
used
to
help
prevent
issues.
Another
practical
tip
for
preventing
issues
could
be
using
a
long-access
sheath
to
help
avoid
injuring
the
pelvic
veins
during
navigation.

flow
in
the
forward
direction
3
No
flow
in
the
forward
direction
4
A
temporary
forward
flow
followed
by
a
backward
flow
-
✅✅
-Continued
flow
in
the
forward
direction
The
Windkessel
effect
would
result
in
the
continued
flow
in
the
forward
direction.
The
closure
of
the
aortic
valve
prevents
the
backward
flow
of
blood
into
the
heart.

Digitization
2
Time
gain
compensation
3
Amplitude
detection
4
Echoes
versus
pulsation
-
✅✅
-Amplitude
detection
There
are
3
functions
of
the
signal
processor:
Bandpass
filtering,
Amplitude
detection,
Compression
In
order

following
would
the
PRF
need
to
do?
1.
Decrease
2.
Remain
the
same
3.
Increase
4.
Double
-
✅✅
-Increase
In
order
to
increase
the
number
of
foci,
the
PRF
needs
to
increase.
PRF
stands
for
pulse
repetition
frequency.
The
vector
array
would
be
considered
the
combination
of
which
of
the
