MRI CAMRT Exam Study Guide Questions and
Answers Top Graded 2024
Is SNR proportional or inversely proportional to voxel volume - ANSWERS-Proportional

3 fields used in MRI - ANSWERS--static magnetic field
-TVMF (gradient field)
-RF field

3 main types of magnets used - ANSWERS--Superconducting (most common_
-Resistive
-Permanent

FDA limits for the 3 fields in MRI - ANSWERS-Static field: 2T
TVMF: 3T/s
RF field:
- does not cause an increase in temperature of more than .5 deg C or any body part of 1
deg C
-SAR does not exceed 1W/kg avg over 25% of whole body for longer than 15mins
-SAR does not exceed 2W/kg avg over 25% of whole body for durations of 15mins or
less

Eddy currents are caused by - ANSWERS-TVMF (gradients)

What are Eddy Currents - ANSWERS-Small currents induced in the body via the TVMF

Biological effects of the TVMF - ANSWERS--Fibrillation
-Electroshock
-Visual phosphenes
-Peripheral nerve stimulation

SAR meaning and units - ANSWERS-Specific Absorption Rate

W/kg- Watts/kilogram

Which field is responsible for tissue heating and temperature increase - ANSWERS-The
RF field

How are cardiac pacemakers affected in MRI - ANSWERS-Affected by all 3 fields

-Static field affects the operation and also exerts torque
-TVMF and RF field can interfere with circuitry

What is the spatial field gradient - ANSWERS-The variance in the fixed static field
surrounding the scanner, the manufacturerer supplies a SFG map

Lenz forces - ANSWERS-Faradays law states that a changing magnetic field will induce
a current in a conductor, Lenzs law states that the induced current will generate a
secondary field that opposes the original field

TVMF (gradient) effects - ANSWERS--Induced voltages
-Auditory considerations
