A high quality radiograph should always demonstrate ____________.

A type of grid in which the grid lines are situated parallel to the divergent rays of the x-ray beam is termed a:

If an initial exposure is made using 800 mA, 0.02 sec, 16 mAs, 70 kVp, 58” SID, 4” OID, 5:1 grid ratio, 0.2 mm focal spot and 3.0 mm of filtration, with a 14 x 17 in field size, and the technologist changes the filtration to 2.5 mm Al for a second exposure without changing any other factors, what differences would you expect to see in the second exposure?1) Increased IR exposure2) Decreased IR exposure3) Increased contrast4) Decreased contrast5) Increased spatial resolution6) Decreased spatial resolution7) Increased distortion8) Decreased distortion

Which combination of variables will result in a radiograph with the lowest receptor exposure??

Shape distortion includes which specific types of distortion?

Which grid error results in grid cut-off and loss of exposure on the outside edges of the image receptor (IR)?

Penumbra (blur) decreases as

Which one of these types of filters is sometimes shaped like a wedge?

A grid with lead strips that run parallel to each other is a:

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