Question
Answer
show v=d/t  
🗑
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
🗑
Radiation (definition)   show
🗑
show any type of energy that is capable of removing an orbital electron from matter it interacts with  
🗑
Covalent Bond   show
🗑
Ionic Bond   show
🗑
show Number of Nucleons  
🗑
Atomic Mass   show
🗑
show <10 keV - contributes to fog (barely)  
🗑
Range at which COMPTON SCATTERING can occur   show
🗑
show 30-150 keV - depends on Atomic #, contributes to patient dose  
🗑
Range at which PAIR PRODUCTION can occur   show
🗑
Range at which PHOTODISINTEGRATION can occur   show
🗑
Differential Absorption (definition)   show
🗑
Beam Attenuation (definition)   show
🗑
Factors affecting Beam Attenuation   show
🗑
Spatial Resolution (definition)   show
🗑
show the ability of the IR to distinguish between levels of grey  
🗑
Digital: Quantum ______ • Film: Quantum ______   show
🗑
Image Artifact   show
🗑
show Film - more sensitive to repeats due to exposure  
🗑
show •VISIBILITY (of anatomic structures): contrast and brightness •SHARPNESS (accuracy of structural lines): spatial resolution and distortion  
🗑
X-ray interactions in the tube   show
🗑
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
🗑
show k = Contrast with grid / contrast without grid  
🗑
show the ratio of primary to transmitted scattered radiation. "ability to clean up" - more scatter removal = greater selectivity  
🗑
show Recommended SID range to use with a focused grid. commonly 36-42 or 66-74"  
🗑
