🗑
|
||||
| 99% of the energy used by the x-ray generator exists in the form of: | waste heat
🗑
|
||||
| Collimation of the x-ray beam involves filters made of: | Lead
🗑
|
||||
| The rotating anode in the x-ray generator is made of : | Tungsten
🗑
|

🗑
|
||||
| Landauer reports indicate film badge exposure in | Millirems
🗑
|
||||
| The reduction of electromagnetic energy as radiation passes trhought matter is called: | Attenuation
🗑
|
||||
| The iodine in contrast is: | Radio-opaque
🗑
|
||||
| Can x-rays be focused using electrostatic lenses? | No, there is no charge in x-rays
🗑
|
||||
| Ionizing radiation damages tissue by: | removing an orbital electron
🗑
|
||||

🗑
|
||||
| Which of the following effects both the quality and quantity of the primary x-ray beam? kVp; mA; mAs; Exposure time; None of the above | kVp because it also increases the mA
🗑
