What effect will keeping the OID at 4 inches while moving the tube from a 50- to 60-inch SID have on size distortion and magnification?1)  increases size distortion2)  decreases size distortion3)  increases magnification4)  decreases magnification

The specifications for an x-ray imaging system indicate that the detector can capture exposure values from 0.1 microgray (µGy) to 1,000 µGy. The quality of the x-ray system is called:

An electon ejected from the outer shell of an atom during an x-ray interaction is called:

Select all changes that occur when the original radiograph is of good quality and the mAs is cut in half and the kVp is increased by 15%.

The job of the anode is to:

A radiographic image with a lot of fog would demonstrate:

Increasing the kVp has what effect on the average energy of photons in the x-ray beam?

Select all changes that occur when the original radiograph is of good quality and the kVp is increased.

What radiographic quality does mA control?

If an x-ray beam was produced from a single point source, the resultant image would consist of:
