Abdomen ARDMS _ MOCK exam Already Passed Progression of which of the following abnormalities flattens the portal veins? ✔✔Biliary obstruction The wall thickness in a normal fasting gallbladder... should not exceed ✔✔3 mm This color Doppler sonogram is most likely demonstrating which of the following abnormalities? ✔✔Pseudoaneurysm This color Doppler image demonstrates turbulent swirling blood flow within a fluid collection, classic sonographic findings of a common femoral artery pseudoaneurysm. A patient presents with sudden onset of upper abdominal pain. Ultrasound demonstrates prominence in the stomach rugae. These findings are most suspicious for which of the following conditions? ✔✔Gastritis Prominence of the stomach rugae in a patient with upper abdominal pain is most suspicious for gastritis. Hypervascular, thick gastric walls are sonographic findings associated with gastric ulcers. Which of the following is a complication of acute pancreatitis? ✔✔Duodenal obstruction Complications of acute pancreatitis may include abscess formation, duodenal obstruction, hemorrhage, phlegmon, and pseudocyst formation. Cholecystitis is a possible etiology of acute pancreatitis. A patient presents with a history of hematuria. The findings in this duplex image are most suspicious for which of the following pathologies? ✔✔Carcinoma A vascular echogenic mass is identified protruding from the posterior wall of the urinary bladder. Bladder carcinoma commonly presents with a history of painless hematuria. Based on the clinical history, the sonographic findings are suspicious for a malignant mass. A sagittal sonogram medial to the porta hepatis is demonstrating which of the following abnormalities? ✔✔Dilated common bile duct A hypoechoic mass identified by the calipers is obstructing the common bile duct resulting in dilatation. The mass is most likely a malignancy in the head of the pancreas. The pathology in this sonogram is most likely a/an ✔✔Pseudocyst A complex fluid collection is identified posterior to the tail of the pancreas. This is most likely a pancreatic pseudocyst. Phlegmons and islet cell tumors appear as hypoechoic masses on ultrasound. A pancreatic hemorrhage is a differential consideration but not the most likely pathology. Which of the following abnormalities is demonstrated in this transverse sonogram? ✔✔Stones in the duct of Wirsung Multiple stones are located in main pancreatic duct (duct of Wirsung). Which of the following is a clinical symptom of hypothyroidism? ✔✔Muscle cramps Muscles cramping is a symptom of hypothyroidism. Other symptoms may include weight gain, mental and physical lethargy, arthritis, skin dryness, feeling cold, slow metabolic rate, and decreased heart rate. Symptoms commonly associated with hyperthyroidism include weight loss, palpitations, nervousness, exophthalmos, constant hunger, tremors, increased heart rate, and intolerance to heat. A 20-year-old patient presents with a palpable left scrotal mass. The sonographic findings are most suspicious for which of the following pathologies? ✔✔Malignant neoplasm A malignant neoplasm is the most likely diagnosis in a young adult demonstrating a hypoechoic intratesticular mass. The patient is afebrile excluding a testicular abscess from the differential considerations. A patient presents with a history of a palpable neck mass. Which of the following terms best describes the sonographic findings? ✔✔Heterogeneous thyroid gland The sonographer's technical report should describe the right thyroid lobe as demonstrating an irregular and heterogeneous echo texture. A patient presents with a history of cirrhosis. The arrows are identifying the ✔✔coronary ligament A hyperechoic linear structure is identified dividing the right subphrenic space from the subhepatic space. This is consistent with the right coronary ligament. The right coronary ligament serves as a barrier between these two peritoneal spaces. [Show More]
