Question
Answer
ma determines   show
🗑
current in units   show
🗑
mas and density   show
🗑
time in seconds   show
🗑
show penetrating power, force applied to push the e from cathode to anode;controls QUALITY  
🗑
show 30%  
🗑
law of reciprocity   show
🗑
relationship between mas and dose   show
🗑
relationship between kvp and dose   show
🗑
s# and density   show
🗑
inverse square law   show
🗑
show decrease kvp 15% and double mas  
🗑
show densitometer  
🗑
show penitrometer, shows gray scale on film  
🗑
step wedge, more steps   show
🗑
show density contrast recorded detail and distortion  
🗑
4 prime technical factors   show
🗑
show sharpness -> (radiographic)detail and distortion  
🗑
photographic variables   show
🗑
density   show
🗑
contrast   show
🗑
more exposure   show
🗑
less exposure   show
🗑
film translucence   show
🗑
show is dependant on the # of exposed silver halide crystals  
🗑
show turn into black metallic silver upon development; more crystals faster film  
🗑
latent image   show
🗑
manifest image   show
🗑
show .25-2.0  
🗑
mas and quantity   show
🗑
show kvp, penetrating ability of beam  
🗑
Milliamperage   show
🗑
show directly proportional  
🗑
show kvp has the greatest effect on density, but is not used to control density  
🗑
show increase kvp by 15% doubles density and vica versa  
🗑
show inverse relationship  
🗑
show increase kvp by 15% and halve mas  
🗑
show aka FFD, focal spot to film distance  
🗑
show intensity of radiation varies inversly with the square of the source  
🗑
show to compensate for density changes with changes in sid  
🗑
rule of thumb for sid and intensity   show
🗑
double kvp   show
🗑
changes in kvp; 30-50 kvp   show
🗑
changes in kvp; 50-90 kvp   show
🗑
show 10% change in kvp  
🗑
show 1942, determines exposure time and therefore the total mas; must still set kvp, chambers and density selection  
🗑
density selections   show
🗑
show didn't have ionizing chambers, only IR, flourescent screen, and photoiodide  
🗑
show direct relationship  
🗑
show increase grid ratio, decrease density, inverse relationship  
🗑
show direct relationship  
🗑
show inverse relationship  
🗑
show inverse relationship  
🗑
processing time/temp   show
🗑
show direct relationship  
🗑
patient size and density   show
🗑
factors that do not effect density   show
🗑
show variation in intensity of photons across longitudinal axis of beam; need more photons for thicker body part, put cathode over that part  
🗑
anode heel effect more pronounced   show
🗑
OID   show
🗑
oid and density   show
🗑
show direct relationship  
🗑
density and over/under development(film)   show
🗑
5 major tissue groups   show
🗑
destructive pathologies and density   show
🗑
show increase attenuation, density decreases and requires an increase in exp. factors  
🗑
mAs def.   show
🗑
show increases amount of photons 4X  
🗑
kvp and quality   show
🗑
kvp and quantity   show
🗑
show inverse relationship  
🗑
radioluscent contrast (air) and density   show
🗑
show decreases density  
🗑
attenuation   show
🗑
show inverse relationship  
🗑
show 30%  
🗑
