(Answer to Q. 1)  B
Pulmonary angiography can identify pulmonary emboli and arteriovenous malformations. A coronary angiogram is needed to find coronary artery occlusions. A bronchoscopy may be needed to find the source of hemoptysis.

(Answer to Q. 2)  B
A pleural effusion causes the separation (not adhesion) of the visceral and parietal pleura.

(Answer to Q. 3)  C
An echocardiogram is used to confirm the diagnosis of ASD.

(Answer to Q. 4)  D
For optimal results, the SpineCor brace should be worn 20 hours a day for the correction of scoliosis.

(Answer to Q. 5)  A
A PET/CT scan is helpful because it provides early detection of cancer metastasis and accurate staging of cancer. Radiation treatment of the cancer and activation of chemotherapy drugs within the tumor are entirely separate from a PET/CT scan.

(Answer to Q. 6)  A
Sleep apnea is associated with an increase in both SVR and PVR.

(Answer to Q. 7)  B
An ostium secundum atrial septal defect (ASD) results from the arrested development of the secundum septum.
