Question
Answer
Velocity (formula)   show
🗑
show 3 x 10^8 meters/second or 186,000 miles/second  
🗑
show a=v(f) - v(o) / time •v(f) = final velocity •v(o) = initial velocity  
🗑
show mg X 9.8meters/second (mass in mg X acceleration of gravity on Earth)  
🗑
work (formula)   show
🗑
power (formula)   show
🗑
show The transfer of energy  
🗑
Ionizing Radiation (definition)   show
🗑
show Sharing of valence electrons  
🗑
Ionic Bond   show
🗑
Atomic Mass Number   show
🗑
Atomic Mass   show
🗑
Range at which COHERENT SCATTERING can occur   show
🗑
Range at which COMPTON SCATTERING can occur   show
🗑
show 30-150 keV - depends on Atomic #, contributes to patient dose  
🗑
show >/= 1.022 MeV - does not occur in diagnostic radiography range  
🗑
Range at which PHOTODISINTEGRATION can occur   show
🗑
Differential Absorption (definition)   show
🗑
show The reduction in intensity (energy) or number of photons of the primary beam as it passes through the patient due to absorption and scatter  
🗑
show •tissue thickness •types of tissue •beam quality (kVp) •transmission  
🗑
show the smallest object that can be detected in an image - sharp lines -line pairs/mm  
🗑
Contrast Resolution (definition)   show
🗑
Digital: Quantum ______ • Film: Quantum ______   show
🗑
show Any unwanted image on a radiograph - dust on IR, foreign body, clothing, scatter/fog  
🗑
show Film - more sensitive to repeats due to exposure  
🗑
Factors affecting Radiographic Quality   show
🗑
show Bremsstrahlung and Characteristic  
🗑
Scatter control methods   show
🗑
show 1. kVp 2. field size 3. patient thickness  
🗑
Types of Grid Designs/Patterns   show
🗑
show Distance from the face of the grid to the point of conversion of the lead strips (determines focal distance range)  
🗑
Grid Frequency of a Focused Grid   show
🗑
Contrast Improvement Factor (k) of a Focused Grid   show
🗑
show the ratio of primary to transmitted scattered radiation. "ability to clean up" - more scatter removal = greater selectivity  
🗑
Focal Range of a Focused Grid   show
🗑
