is fluro a dynamic or static study | dynamic |
what is the mA range for fluoroscopic x ray tubes | .5. - 5.0mA |
is pt dose higher or lower in fluro and why | higher, bc of the length of the procedure |

what is ABC | automatic brightness control |
what is the disadvantage to using the magnification mode in fluro | pt receives additiona dose |
what is the milliamperage used during fluro | < 5mA.( Less than 5mA ) |
which of the following hs the possiablity of demonstrating veiling glare and pincushion distortion | conventional image intensifier |
what is the energy sequence during image intensified fluroscopy | xray to light to electrons to light |
the ___absorbs electrons and emits light | output screen |
electrons hit the ______after exiting the anode | output phosphor |
define vignetting | a loss of brightness around the edge of the fluoroscopic image due to the curve of the photocathode |
what is brightnesss gain | the capability of an image intensifier to increase illumination level of the image |
what is formula for the amount of magnification created when in magnification mode | MF= full size input phosphor / selected input phosphor |
