Question 1 of 10

A 45-year-old patient develops unilateral neck pain and partial Horner syndrome several hours after forceful neck manipulation. Cervical carotid dissection is suspected. Which vascular examination is most appropriate for rapid initial assessment?

Question 2 of 10

During percutaneous core biopsy of a hypervascular renal mass, the patient develops new flank pain and tachycardia. CT demonstrates an enlarging perinephric hematoma with active arterial contrast extravasation. What is the most appropriate next step?

Question 3 of 10

A 31-year-old woman has a palpable breast mass. Ultrasound demonstrates an irregular hypoechoic lesion with angular margins and posterior shadowing. Diagnostic mammography confirms a corresponding suspicious mass. Which procedure is most appropriate?

Question 4 of 10

A 32-year-old patient undergoing infertility evaluation requires assessment of fallopian-tube patency. The uterus and ovaries are otherwise normal on transvaginal ultrasound. Which examination is most appropriate?

Question 5 of 10
MRI demonstrates paired bright and dark bands at interfaces between fat and water-containing tissues.

Abdominal MRI demonstrates alternating bright and dark bands at multiple fat-water interfaces along the frequency-encoding direction, as illustrated. Which acquisition change most directly reduces this artifact?

Question 6 of 10
Axial shoulder CT and radiograph showing posterior humeral-head displacement with an anteromedial impaction defect.

A 44-year-old patient develops severe shoulder pain and restricted motion after an epileptic seizure. CT and radiography are shown. Which injury pattern is demonstrated?

Question 7 of 10
Axial contrast-enhanced CT showing an enlarged pancreas with extensive heterogeneous nonenhancing parenchymal regions and surrounding collections.

A 58-year-old patient with acute pancreatitis deteriorates clinically on day 5 with persistent organ dysfunction and rising inflammatory markers. Contrast-enhanced CT is shown. Which morphologic diagnosis is demonstrated?

Question 8 of 10

A 28-year-old patient remains comatose after high-speed trauma. Initial head CT shows no large hematoma. MRI demonstrates numerous punctate susceptibility foci at the gray-white junction and within the corpus callosum, with corresponding diffusion abnormalities. Which diagnosis is most likely?

Question 9 of 10
Coronal postcontrast brain MRI demonstrating a uniformly enhancing dural-based convexity mass with adjacent enhancing dura.

A 62-year-old woman has several months of progressive headache without systemic malignancy. Coronal postcontrast T1-weighted MRI is shown. Which diagnosis is most strongly suggested?

Question 10 of 10

Staging CT shows a 4.6-cm primary lung carcinoma directly invading the parietal chest wall. There are no separate tumor nodules, nodal metastases, or distant metastases. Which primary tumor category applies to the chest-wall invasion?
