Questions and Answers

1.

All biomedical imaging labs at Texas A&M are within the department of Biomedical Engineering.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
B. False

Explanation
There are many biomedical imaging labs in departments outside of Biomedical Engineering such as Electrical Engineering, Biology, and the vet school.

Rate this question:
2.

What type of research is the Nuclear Magnetic Resonance and RF Lab concerned with? (Check all that apply.)

  Developing new RF coil technology
- B.
  
  Developing new receiver technology
- C.
  
  Exploring imaging modalities other than MRI such as X-ray and ultrasound
- D.
  
  Improving MRI resolution and speed
Correct Answer(s)
A. Developing new RF coil technology
B. Developing new receiver technology
D. Improving MRI resolution and speed

Explanation
The Nuclear Magnetic Resonance and RF Lab is concerned with many aspects of MRI but has not yet heavily branched out into other imaging modalities.

Rate this question:
3.

What imaging modality is the Biotherapeutics and High Performance Imaging Lab most focused on?
- A.
  
  X-ray / CT
- B.
  
  MRI
- C.
  
  Optical imaging / microscopy
- D.
  
  Ultrasound
Correct Answer
C. Optical imaging / microscopy

Explanation
The Biotherapeutics and High Performance Imaging Lab performs a great deal of microscopy and has numerous high-performance optical setups available.

Rate this question:
4.

A network analyzer like those used in the Nuclear Magnetic Resonance and RF Lab is used for taking what type of measurements?
- A.
  
  DC electrical measurements
- B.
  
  AC electrical measurements
- C.
  
  Low frequency mechanical measurements
- D.
  
  High frequency mechanical measurements
Correct Answer
B. AC electrical measurements

Explanation
Network analyzers are used for making high frequency electrical measurements. In the Nuclear Magnetic Resonance and RF Lab they are often used for testing RF coils.

Rate this question:
5.

Which of the following pieces of fabrication equipment are available at the Nuclear Magnetic Resonance and RF Lab? (Check all that apply.)
- A.
  
  CNC mill
- B.
  
  Lathe
- C.
  
  Circuit printer
- D.
  
  3D printer
Correct Answer(s)
C. Circuit printer
D. 3D printer

Explanation
The Nuclear Magnetic Resonance and RF Lab has a circuit printer and 3D printer available for student researchers within the lab. A CNC mill and lathe as well as numerous other pieces of fabrication equipment are also easily available to student researchers who work in this lab but these resources are shared within the Biomedical Engineering department and not actually part of this specific lab.

Rate this question:
6.

The Biotherapeutics and High-Performance Imaging Lab is able to image which type of cells?
- A.
  
  Live cells only
- B.
  
  Fixed cells only
- C.
  
  Both live cells and fixed cells
- D.
  
  No cells can be imaged in this lab
Correct Answer
C. Both live cells and fixed cells

Explanation
The Biotherapeutics and High-Performance Imaging lab has access to both live and fixed cell microscopy as well as other microscopy setups.

Rate this question:
7.

The Structured Illumination Microscopy setup in the Biotherapeutics and High-Performance Imaging Lab is useful for enhancing what aspect of microscopy?
- A.
  
  Imaging speed
- B.
  
  Field-of-view
- C.
  
  Resolution
- D.
  
  Contrast
Correct Answer
C. Resolution

Explanation
The Structured Illumination Microscopy setup is able to take images from multiple focal planes and combine them in order to achieve better resolution than is possible with conventional microscopy.

Rate this question:
8.

The Biotherapeutics and High-Performance Imaging Lab is now engaged only in clinical work and has shifted its focus away from research studies.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
B. False

Explanation
The Biotherapeutics and High-Performance Imaging Lab is very active in research and has numerous research projects going on at all times.

Rate this question:
9.

What is the name of the equipment shown?
- A.
  
  Circuit printer
- B.
  
  Fixed cell microscope
- C.
  
  Network analyzer
- D.
  
  3D printer
Correct Answer
C. Network analyzer

Explanation
The correct answer is "network analyzer" because a network analyzer is a device used to measure and analyze the performance of communication networks. It is used to troubleshoot network issues, monitor network traffic, and analyze network protocols. The other options, such as circuit printer, fixed cell microscope, and 3D printer, do not accurately describe the equipment shown in the question.

Rate this question:
10.

What is the name of the equipment shown?
- A.
  
  3D printer
- B.
  
  RF coil
- C.
  
  Network analyzer
- D.
  
  Fixed cell microscope
Correct Answer
D. Fixed cell microscope

Explanation
The correct answer is fixed cell microscope. This is the name of the equipment shown in the question.

Rate this question:
11.

What is the name of the equipment shown?
- A.
  
  3D printer
- B.
  
  Circuit printer
- C.
  
  Fixed cell microscope
- D.
  
  RF coil
Correct Answer
A. 3D printer

Explanation
The correct answer is 3D printer. This is because a 3D printer is a piece of equipment that is used to create three-dimensional objects by layering materials on top of each other. The image shown is most likely a 3D printer due to its design and structure. It is not a circuit printer, fixed cell microscope, or RF coil, as these are different types of equipment used for different purposes.
