Answer to Question 1

A, B, D
Both aspiration and biopsy diagnose and differentiate leukemia, certain malignancies, anemia, and thrombocytopenia. Heart disease is not diagnosed with these studies.

Answer to Question 2

A, B
Minimize patients' anxiety and fear by conveying an open, receptive, and professional approach. Using simple terms, thoroughly explain what you will do, what the patient should expect to feel, and how the patient can cooperate. Even if the patient appears unresponsive, it still is essential to explain your actions. Provide access to body parts while draping areas that are not being examined.
