Pertaining to the diagram, each of the lines 1 – 4 represents the intensity change due to filtration at different kVp levels.The greatest amount of attenuation is seen for valuse represented by:

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 to the 0.3 mm focal spot 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

The y-axis for all emission spectra represents the:

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 area of the x-ray beam projected towards the patient is described as the:

Factors that impact the visibility of detail include all of the following EXCEPT

Improper tube, object and image receptor alignment with no change in SID will result in:

Which of the choices below does NOT increase contrast?

All filtration can be expressed in terms of the thickness of

A high quality radiograph should always demonstrate ____________.
