This quiz is the companion to the Directed Reading article “Imaging the Vermiform Appendix”.
Near the ileocecal valve, at the junction of the small intestine and large intestine, lies a blind-ended tube and possible homeostatic regulator called the vermiform appendix. The organ can cause several abdominal maladies that, if left untreated, can result in a complicated recovery or death. Imaging professionals should understand the structure and function of the entire gastrointestinal tract to provide optimal care for patients undergoing diagnostic imaging. This article provides a brief overview of gastrointestinal anatomy, appendix physiology and function, clinical evaluation, appendix imaging, and treatment of appendicitis.
