______ is the most common metal used as a filter in diagnostic radiology to remove soft x-rays from the polyenergetic/heterogeneous beam.

The benefits of Image Intensification Fluoroscopy are: 1. Increased image brightness 2. Patient dose reduction 3.Time saving for radiologist 4. Less contrast usage for patients 5.Less Dose Creep 

The reason for discontinuing patient gonadal shielding and fetal shielding in diagnostic radiology is based on research that the use of such shielding may jeopardize the benefits of the radiologic examination because
