The operation of personnel radiation monitoring devices can be based on simulated luminescence.  Which of the following personnel radiation monitors functions in that manner? 1/ OSL dosimeter 2. TLD 3. Pocket dosimeter

All of the following function to reduce patient dose, except

Effective protective measures take into consideration1. both human and environmental physical determinants.2. technical elements.3. procedural factors.

The operation of personnel radiation monitoring devices can depend on which of the following? 1. ionization 2. luminescence 3. thermoluminescence

The photoelectric effect is more likely to occur with  1. absorbers having a high Z number 2. high energy incident photons 3. positive contrast media

An ionization chamber connected to an electrometer is a device that can measure

Why is a question concerning the amount of radiation a patient will receive during a specific x-ray procedure difficult to answer?1. Because the received dose is specified in a number of different units of measure2. Because the scientific units for radiation dose are normally not comprehensible by a patient3. Because the patient should not receive any information about radiation dose

Radiation that passes through the tube housing in directions other than that of the useful beam is termed

Calculation of equivalent dose (EqD) requires: 1. absorbed dose  2. type of radiation 3. tissue exposed

THe production of x-ray photons by the sudden deceleration of high speed electrons is termed:
