A radiographer has the choice of multiple radiographic systems, each using a different actual focal spot size. Which system should be used if maximum heat dissipation is required?

A radiograph is acquired using a source-to-image distance (SID) of 40 inches. If the radiograph is repeated using the same exposure factors, but the SID increases to 60 inches, the receptor exposure will:

An x-ray source is producing an entrance skin exposure of 3.1 mSv per hour at 10 cm from the source. What is the entrance skin exposure at 15 cm from the source?

The distance between the anatomy being imaged and the focal spot is called:

The difference between two adjacent densities is

Which one of these is performed first when calculating the exposure maintenance formula?

The use of an x-ray tube with a small anode angle results in: (Select all that apply)

When the distance from the x-ray source decreases, the patient dose will:

An x-ray exposure is made using 96 kilovoltage peak (kVp) and 3 milliamperage (mA)s. What new technique will result in the greatest increase in receptor exposure?
