Using AEC, a 50 speed is mistakenly used instead of a 400 speed IR. What will occur? | insuffient optical density |
the use of an impulse or synchronous timer in a single phase will permit exposure times as short as | 17 ms (1/60) |
timer circuits are located in the _________ circuits for safety reasons | primary |
what is the likely cause of an excessively long AEC exposure? | failure to properly center the x-ray tube |
