| If the SID is reduced by 1/2, the intensity at the image _______________ because of the inverse square law. | Increases 4 times, |
| An x-ray that could pass through __________ would have high quality and penetrability. | Thick tissue |
| X-ray intensity is proportional to _____? | kVp2. |
| X-ray quantity _________in direct proportion to increases in mAs. | Increases |
| An increase of ________in kVp is equivalent to increasing mAs 100%. | 15% |
| A ________________ would also have low penetrability. | Low quality beam |
| Increasing filtration improve ______? | X-ray beam energy |
| _____________, _______________, _______________ all contribute to differential absorption. | Compton interactions, photoelectric absorption, and transmitted x-rays |
| Interaction between low-energy x-rays and atoms called ________? | Coherent scattering |
| What is Compton scattering ? | Compton scattering is an interaction between an x-ray and an outer-shell electron that results in ionization and loss of energy. |
| Pair production | _______________ is an interaction between an x-ray and a nuclear electric field that causes the x-ray to disappear and causes two electrons to take its place. |
| Photodisintegration take place, Only at energies above _______? | 10 MeV |
| What is Attenuation ? | Attenuation is caused by absorption and scattering. |
