Question
Answer
show the actual image?  
🗑
what is a tomograph?   show
🗑
what is tomography?   show
🗑
principle of tomography   show
🗑
pivot point around the movement occurs, object being examined is placed at this point   show
🗑
where is object being imaged placed?   show
🗑
method to overcome superimposition   show
🗑
show tube, object, IR  
🗑
show slice or cuts  
🗑
what is the result of a tomographic image?   show
🗑
arc or angle the tube travels. Total distance traveled by the tube   show
🗑
arc or angle the tube travels during the exposure   show
🗑
what kind of slices do we take in tomography   show
🗑
show motion blur  
🗑
what is properly imaged in tomography   show
🗑
show objects lying outside focal plane demonstrate increasing blur the further away from the object plane  
🗑
show increased blurring causes decreased density. Objects are more transparent, permits objects with the focal plane to be seen through the blurring  
🗑
how is tomographic amplitude (arc) related to blur   show
🗑
show directly. Increase in distance of an object from fulcrum, increase in blur  
🗑
how is distance from IR related to blur?   show
🗑
show blur increases  
🗑
show phantoms  
🗑
when are phantoms produced?   show
🗑
occurs when tube motion is parallel to long axis of object   show
🗑
show greater than or equal to  
🗑
show less than or equal to  
🗑
what decreases phantom images   show
🗑
pivot point   show
🗑
show move table up or down OR move fulcrum up or down, patient remains stationary.  
🗑
region within the image exhibits satisfactory recorded detail and is controlled by the fulcrum   show
🗑
show width of the focal plane  
🗑
what is the relationship between thickness and exposure angle?   show
🗑
what determines section thickness?   show
🗑
show section interval  
🗑
show section interval  
🗑
most common and most widely used type of motion   show
🗑
show pluridirectional  
🗑
types of pluridirectional movements   show
🗑
slice thickness relationship to movements   show
🗑
must match length of time required for x-ray tube to complete the tomo amplitude   show
🗑
what kind of mA used for tomogram?   show
🗑
show Zonography  
🗑
when lesion has been localized and fine detail is needed - produces thinner sections   show
🗑
show panoramic tomography  
🗑
show stereoradiography  
🗑
common uses for stereoradiography   show
🗑
