The anatomical term that indicates a structure close to the surface is

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is 'superficial.' In anatomy, the term 'superficial' refers to a structure that is close to the surface of the body. Choice A, 'anterior,' refers to the front of the body, not specifically to depth. Choice B, 'proximal,' refers to a structure that is closer to the point of attachment or trunk of the body. Choice D, 'superior,' indicates a structure that is above or higher in position.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Ultrasonography is a medical imaging technique that uses sound waves to visualize internal body structures. It is particularly effective for examining soft tissues like organs, blood vessels, and fetuses. Choice A is incorrect because bones are better visualized using techniques like X-rays. Choice B is incorrect as air-filled organs like lungs are not well visualized with ultrasound due to air being a poor conductor of sound waves. Choice D is incorrect since ultrasonography cannot visualize structures at a microscopic level, as it is used for larger internal structures.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) uses high-frequency sound waves to create detailed images of the inside of the body. X-rays (Choice A) use electromagnetic radiation, not sound waves, making it an incorrect choice. A radio antenna (Choice B) is used for communication, not for MRI imaging. Radioisotopes (Choice C) are used in nuclear medicine imaging techniques, not in MRI scans. Therefore, the correct answer is high-frequency sound waves (Choice D) as they are utilized in MRI technology to produce images.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Magnetic resonance imaging, commonly known as MRI, is a non-invasive imaging technique used to visualize internal structures of the body. While it can be used to distinguish between normal and abnormal tissue, one of its common applications is to examine musculoskeletal injuries, such as an injured knee. Choice A has been corrected to mention 'normal and abnormal tissue' instead of 'normal and cancerous tissue' as MRI is not solely used for cancer detection. Choice C is incorrect as MRI can provide detailed images of various body parts, not just limited to the brain. Therefore, the correct answer is to examine an injured knee.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Cadaver dissection is not against the law in the U.S. In fact, cadaver dissection is a common practice in medical schools and research institutions for educational and research purposes. The correct answer is 'False' because there are specific regulations and ethical guidelines that govern the use of cadavers for dissection. Choice C, 'Not Sure,' is incorrect as the legality of cadaver dissection is a well-established fact. Choice D, 'None of the above,' is also incorrect as one of the provided options is indeed correct.
