changes in mAs do not have primary controlling effects on digital image brightness   true  
🗑
brightness cannot be alter in the digital image onces it has been process   false  
🗑
a digital imaging systems ability to distinguish abetween similar tissues is termed   contrast resolutions  
🗑
radiographic contrast in the digital image is primarily affected by   applications of processing algoithms  
🗑

🗑
the current range of the spatial resolutions for digital rdaiographic imaging system is between the   2.5 lp/mm to 5.0 ip/mm  
🗑
in addition to acquisition pixel size, spatial resolution in the digital image is controlled by   display matrix  
🗑
the factor that affect image distortion for the digital image are different from those that affect film-screen system   false  
🗑
a numeric value that is represenative of the exposure the digital image receptor receive is termed the   exposure indicator  
🗑
list the four factors that affects the exposure indicator in the digital images   mAs kV total detector area iirrdicated objected exposed  
🗑
if the recommended exposure indicator range for a well-exposed image is between 15- to 250 a vaule of 350 would indicated ______ of the images   underexposure  
🗑
if the recommended exposure indicator range is between 2.0-2.4 thena value of 1.2 indicates _____ of the images   underexposure  
🗑
a random disturbance that obscures or reduces clarity is the definition for   noise  
🗑
verifying the exposure indicator for each exposure is essential in producing quality digital images withe the   least possible dose to the patients
